<strong>Safe</strong>ty Concept<br />

<strong>Safe</strong>ty Reaction Time<br />

The safety reaction time is the amount of time from a safety-related<br />

event as input to the system until the system is in the <strong>Safe</strong> State.<br />

The safety reaction time from an input signal condition that triggers a<br />

safe stop, to the initiation of the configured <strong>Safe</strong> Stop Type, is 20 ms<br />

(maximum).<br />

The safety reaction time from an overspeed event that triggers a safe<br />

stop, to the actual initiation of the configured <strong>Safe</strong> Stop Type, is equal<br />

to the value of the P24 [OverSpd Response] parameter.<br />

For more information on overspeed response time, see Overspeed<br />

Response Time on page 75.<br />

Considerations for <strong>Safe</strong>ty<br />

Ratings<br />

The achievable safety rating of an application using the MSR57 relay is<br />

dependent upon many factors, including the encoder setup, drive<br />

options, output pulse testing, and the type of motor.<br />

When using two independent encoders to monitor motion and when<br />

installed in a manner to avoid any common cause dangerous failure,<br />

the MSR57P relay can be used in applications up to and including<br />

SIL CL3, PL(e), and CAT 4.<br />

When using a drive with the <strong>Safe</strong>-Off option and one external<br />

contactor, or when using two external contactors, the MSR57P relay<br />

can be used in applications up to and including SIL CL3, PL(e), and<br />

CAT 4.<br />

IMPORTANT<br />

Some of the diagnostics performed on the encoder signals<br />

require motion to detect faults. You must make sure that motion<br />

occurs at least once every six months.<br />
