Emergency stop
Example application for dual-channel safety door monitoring with proximity detectors, automatic 
reset and emergency stop
1)
 Switchable modules see section4.3
If the emergency stop button is pushed or at least one mag-
netic switch is opened, the UR20-PF-O-xDI-SIL switches off 
the 24V supply for the modules
1)
 within safety segment and 
thus also contactors K3 and K4. The failure of a switching 
element in the emergency stop button or a cross-circuit in its 
supply lines does not result in the failure of the emergency 
stop mechanism and is detected within the fault-reaction 
time.
The UR20-PF-O-xDI-SIL switches on the 24V supply for 
modules
1)
 within the safety segment if 
 – the emergency stop button is unlocked
 – and both magnetic contacts are closed
 – and the feedback circuit (NC contacts of K3 and K4) is 
closed. 
Contactors K3 and K4 are controlled by the PLC and can 
switch on as soon as the UR20-PF-O-xDI-SIL has switched 
on the 24V supply. To reset the system, press the reset but-
ton for 0.1 to 2s after switching on the power supply, even 
when automatic reset is used.
