2 Installation / Set-up

Applications

The safe AS-i relay output module with conventional inputs is a decentralised output module for safe triggering of actuators in the AS-Interface Safety at Work system.

For this purpose, a code table with 7 x 4 bits is transmitted via the AS-i system; sent by the AS-i safety monitor (e.g. AC031S / AC032S) and received by the safe AS-i output module.

When operated correctly, the system can be used in applications up to performance level e according to EN ISO 13849-1 or IEC 61508/SIL3 (see notes Electrical connection).

Attention!

IFM AC030S - Installation / Set-up - 1

Depending on the safety components used the complete safety system can also be classified for a lower control category.

1: Slide switch R/P
2: Addressing plug
3: Combicon connector with screw terminals (option)

4 Installation

Install the safe AS-i output module on a 35 mm raised rail. The protection rating of the unit is IP20, therefore it should be mounted in a protected location with protection rating IP54 or higher (e.g. control cabinet).

The mounting orientation has no adverse effect on the function. Ensure that there is sufficient air circulation in the control cabinet.

5 Electrical connection

Mechanical switches or inductive sensors, for example, can be connected to the inputs. Connect the non-safe inputs e.g. with the screw terminals of the Combicon connectors.

Attention!

Do not connect the non-safe inputs to an external potential!

IFM AC030S - Electrical connection - 3

Note: safe relay output

The safe relay output is implemented with two positively driven relay contacts. If one of the two internal relays does not switch (e.g. due to fusing of the contacts), this is detected in the safe output module.

The relay contacts 13-14 and 23-24 are potential-free normally open contacts.

Attention!

IFM AC030S - Electrical connection - 4

The wiring influences the achievable control category.

The requirements for external wiring and the selection of the connected switching contacts refer to the functionality to be accomplished and to the required control category (EN 954-1 / ISO 13849-1 or EN/IEC 61508). The control category is either determined by means of a risk analysis (e.g. to EN 1050) or taken from a C standard. The control category or SIL level of the AS-i safety monitor must at least correspond to the control category or SIL level necessary for the application.

6 Response times

The response time of the safe AS-i relay output module to a safety request is maximum 50 ms from the application of the code sequence until the switch-off of the safe relays.

Calculation of the total response time

For the calculation of the response time of the total system, the response times of the other components also have to be added (mechanical switching contacts, data transmission, safety monitor and external relays or contactors possibly connected to the safe relay output).

Here, the switching times of the mechanical contacts (e-stops) and external relays or contactors possibly connected to the relay output of the output module have not been taken into account.

7 Consideration of the residual error probability to IEC 61508

To calculate the PFH (probability of a dangerous failure per hour) of a safety-related function the PFH values of all components used in this function must be taken into account.

The probability of failure on demand (PFD) is 9.25 × 10-6 / h .

The probability of a dangerous failure per hour (PFH) is 3.3 × 10-9 /h (per hour).

The indicated PFD and PFH values refer to the maximum switch-on time of 12 months.

The maximum service life (T) is 20 years. The unit can be used in applications up to SIL 3 (PLe / EN ISO 13849-1 or cat. 4 / EN954-1).

Explanation of the abbreviations:

PFD = probability of failure on demand

PFH = probability of a dangerous failure per hour

SIL = safety integrity level

T = life time (= service life)

The PFD / PFH values of the other components, especially of the AS-i safety monitor, can be found in the corresponding documentation.

8 Addressing

The safe AS-i output module can be addressed, when mounted and wired, via the addressing unit AC1154 with the cable (EVC076); the address is set to 0 at the factory.

A special feature of the safe AS-i output module are the two types of AS-i addresses:

  • the safe AS-i address detects the communication on the safe address of the safety monitor and switches on the basis of the detected data.
  • the non safety-related AS-i address serves for diagnosis and switching under normal operating conditions.

On delivery, all safe output modules with the same safe AS-i address switch in parallel. This can be changed by means of the parameter bits.

9 Programming

Programming of the safety-related AS-i address

  1. Set the switch on the unit to P (programming) (running light of the inputs I1-I3/1. Y1).
  2. Set the desired address with the addressing unit or the AS-i master.
  3. Check the programmed address with the addressing unit or the AS-i master.
  4. Check the ID code of the slave with the addressing unit or the AS-i master. The code should be "F".
  5. Check the ID1 code of the slave with the addressing unit or the AS-i master. The code should correspond to the tens digit of the address.
  6. Check the ID2 code of the slave with the addressing unit or the AS-i master. The code should correspond to the units digit of the address.
  7. Check the IO code of the slave with the addressing unit or the AS-i master. The code should be "7".
  8. When all steps from 3 to 7 have been carried out correctly, you can proceed with step 9. Otherwise, repeat from step 1.
  9. Set the switch of the unit to R (RUN).

Programming of the non safety-related AS-i address

This address can be programmed in the R position of the switch with the addressing unit or the AS-i master (green release LED flashes).

10 Operation

Check whether the unit operates correctly. Display by LEDs:

• LEDs 1 yellow:inputs switched
• LED 2 green:voltage supply ok
• LED 2 red lit:AS-i communication error, slave does not participate in the "normal" exchange of data, e.g. slave address 0
• LED 2 red flashing:peripheral fault, e.g. overload or short circuit of the sensor supply
• LED 3 red:alarm output O-1 (non-safe)(through the host system the alarm output LED can be set as a static or dynamic output)
• LED 4 yellow:process output O-2 (non-safe)
• LED 5 green:release: code release
- off:safe output relay switched off
- flashes, 1 Hz:restart disable (auxiliary signal 2), waits for start signal; after start signal the safe output relay switches on
- flashes, 8 Hz:waiting for error reset (auxiliary signal 1); when the safety monitor sends the signal "error reset", the safe output relay switches on
- lights:safe output relay switched on

IFM AC030S - Operation - 1

If all LEDs flash quickly simultaneously, the unit has detected a fatal error.

This message is reset by briefly interrupting the supply voltage (Power On Reset).

Possible causes:

  • faulty hardware
  • status the unit cannot process
  • overload of the internal relay

10.1 Diagnosis via ASIMON configuration software

In the configuration software ASIMON, the status of the safe output module can be visualised in the online diagnosis via the diagnostic block actuator diagnostics.

To do so, a corresponding diagnostic block is to be added for each safe output module in the ASIMON configuration.

The non-safe address of the output module AC030S as well as the diagnosis type must be added in this block. Two diagnosis types are available for the safe output module: type 2 and type 3:

Type 2: simple diagnosis -> on/off, visualisation green/red

Type 3: extended diagnosis -> on/off, error message, visualisation: green/red, flashing yellow
