4 Items supplied

• 1 safe AS-i module AC507S
• 1 original operating instructions AC507S
• 1 EU Declaration of Conformity

If one of the above-mentioned components is missing or damaged, please contact one of the ifm branch offices.

5 Intended use

The safe AS-i module detects safety-related switching states of an ESPE (electro-sensitive protective equipment) with two self-testing semiconductor outputs (OSSD), e.g. fail-safe inductive sensors, safe light grids, safe light curtains, etc.

For this purpose, a code table is transferred via the AS-i system with 8 x 4 bits which is evaluated by the safety monitor.

The safety function of the device is achieved by the closed-circuit current principle (input disconnected = safe state).

The device can be used in applications up to Performance Level e, category 4 to ISO 13849-1 and SIL 3 to IEC 61508.

Depending on the safety components used the complete safety system can also be classified for a lower Performance Level PL or Safety Integrity Level SIL.

Application area taking into account the technical data:

• Industrial environments
- Wet environments
• Indoor use without control cabinet

6 Function description

IFM AC505S - Function description - 1

The products described here are designed to be components of a safety-oriented machine or control system. A complete safety-related system normally includes sensors, evaluation units, signalling components and concepts for safe switch-off. It is the responsibility of each manufacturer of a machine or installation to ensure a correct functioning of the whole system. The manufacturer of the safe AS-i module, his subsidiaries and affiliates are not in a position to ensure all of the characteristics of a given machine or product not designed by it.

The manufacturer accepts no liability for any recommendation that may be implied or stated herein.

The warranty contained in the contract of sale is the sole warranty. Any statements contained herein do not create new warranties or modify existing ones.

All information in the description of the configuration software, the original operating instructions for the AS-i safety monitor and the original operating instructions for the device must be adhered to. These documents provide all the required instructions regarding installation, configuration, operation and maintenance of the safe AS-i module.

Information on the configurable safety functions of the safe AS-i control cabinet module can be found in the chapter Monitoring devices of the configuration software manual.

IFM AC505S - Function description - 2

7.1 General notes on wiring

The threaded connections in the device correspond to the M12 standard. To ensure compliance with the specified protection rating, only cables that comply with this standard may be used. In the case of self-assembled cables, the system manufacturer is responsible for the protection rating.

▶ Use connectors with gold-plated contacts.
▶ During installation, place the connectors vertically so that the coupling nut will not damage the thread.
▶ Observe the coding of the connectors during installation.

If sockets in the device:

▶ Tighten the cable plug using 0.6...0.8 Nm.

▶ Cover unused connections with protective covers. Tightening torque: 0.6...0.8 Nm

Cover the addressing interface using the supplied protective cap. Tightening torque 0.6...0.8 Nm.

▶ Provide all outgoing cables with suitable strain relief after a maximum of 200 mm. Observe the minimum bending radius of the cables ( → information from the cable manufacturer).

The IP rating of the overall system depends on the protection ratings of the individual devices, the applied connection elements and the corresponding protective caps.

Attach a flat cable seal if the module is at the end of the cable line (to be ordered separately).

ATTENTION

No protection rating / no protection of the contacts without mounted connectors / protective caps.

▷ Inadmissible soiling / moisture possible.
▶ Before installation / when replacing the device, observe pollution degree 2.

7.2 Removing the connector with vibration protection

▶ Press the connector against the unit and simultaneously loosen the coupling nut.

8 Electrical connection

IFM AC505S - Electrical connection - 1

The unit must be connected by a qualified electrician.

Observe the national and international regulations for the installation of electrical equipment.

Voltage supply according to SELV, PELV.

▶ Disconnect power.

▶ Disconnect any independently supplied relay load circuits, if necessary.

IFM AC505S - Electrical connection - 2

Do not connect inputs and outputs to an external potential.

The pin connection of the "transmitter" socket on the module allows the protected area width of an ESPE (electro-sensitive protective equipment) to be set to "range high".

The configuration signal on the AS-i module for setting the protected area width is not safety-related.

If the protected area width is to be set to "range low", use an EY3092 adapter cable which can be ordered separately.

ESPE receivers usually have an 8-pole M12 connector.

Use an adapter cable for connection to a 5-pole M12 socket. The EY3090 adapter cable which can be ordered separately is rated for the automatic operating mode of the ESPE.

8.4 Electronic contacts

The safe inputs correspond to type 2 digital inputs of EN 61131-2.

The electronic switching contacts are connected via the SI-1/2 socket.

The device supports the connection of fail-safe electronic sensors with 2 OSSD outputs. The duration of the switch-off test pulses of electronic sensors must not be longer than 1 ms.

Ensure a safe separation between the external LED and the normally closed contact. In the configuration software for the safety monitor the monitoring modules can be used as dual-channel positively guided module, dual-channel dependent module and dual-channel dependent module with filtering.

Do not connect any of the pins to an external potential since they are electrically connected to the AS-i cable.

The wiring influences the achievable Performance Level PL or the Safety Integrity Level SIL. The requirements for Performance Level d to ISO 13849-1 or SIL 2 to IEC 61508 are met.

Performance Level e according to ISO 13849-1 or SIL 3 to 61508 can be reached if both outputs of the protective equipment feature cross-fault monitoring.

If the protective equipment does not provide this feature, the cabling between the contacts to be monitored and the module must be selected in a way to exclude cross faults between the wires (see ISO 13849-2).

The output bits D0... D3 are intended for signalling. Bits D0 and D1 have effect on the red alarm LEDs on the front panel (O-1, O-2) and can be used for signalling directly on the module.

Bits D2 and D3 have effect on the switching outputs O-3 and O-4 and can be used for external alarm LEDs, e.g. muting function blocks.

IFM AC505S - Data bits - 1

WARNING

Ensure safe separation between the safety-related NC contact circuit and the connections of the external alarm LED.

▷ Observe all notes on installation and handling in these instructions.
▶ The device must only be used under the specified operating conditions and in accordance with use as prescribed.

11.2 Parameters

The module allows the current module parameters to be read and informs which of the two switching contacts to be connected was opened during the demand on the safety function.

IFM AC505S - Parameters - 1

This parameter information is not part of the safe AS-i transmission and should not be treated as safe data transmission.

It must in no case be linked with any safety functions nor evaluated in this context.

11.3 Response times

The response time of the safe AS-i module for a safety demand is max. 10 ms. For the calculation of the response time of the complete system the response times of the other components also have to be added (mechanical contacts, safety monitor and external relays or contactors possibly connected to the safety monitor output).
