Function Manual
360 Function Manual, 06/2012, 6SL3097-4AB10-0BP4
Brake activation via the brake connection on the Safe Brake Relay is carried out using a
safe, two-channel method.
Note
To ensure that this function can be used for Blocksize Power Modules, a Safe Brake Relay
must be used (for more information, see the Equipment Manual SINAMICS S110).
When the Power Module is configured automatically, the Safe Brake Relay is detected and
the motor holding brake type is defaulted (p1278 = 0).
WARNING
"Safe Brake Control" does not detect faults in the brake itself, such as brake winding short-
circuit, worn brakes, etc.
If a cable breaks, this is only recognized by the "Safe Brake Control" function when the
status changes, i.e. when the brake is applied/released.
Functional features of "Safe Brake Control" (SBC)
● When "Safe Torque Off" is selected or when safety monitors are triggered, "SBC" is
performed with safe pulse suppression.
● Unlike conventional brake control, SBC is executed via p1215 through two channels.
● SBC is executed regardless of the brake control or mode set in p1215. SBC is not
recommended, however, when 1215 = 0 or 3.
● The function must be enabled via parameter.
● When SBC is enabled, the holding brake is applied immediately with forced dormant error
detection each time "Safe Torque Off" is selected.
● The input terminals can be debounced to prevent signal faults triggering other faults.
Parameters p9651 and p9851 are used to set filter times.
Enabling the "Safe Brake Control (SBC)" function
The "Safe Brake Control" function is enabled via the following parameters:
● p9602 SI enable safe brake control (CPU 1)
● p9802 SI enable safe brake control (CPU 2)
The "Safe Brake Control" function cannot be used until at least one safety monitoring
function has been enabled (i.e. p9601 = p9801 ≠ 0).
