- 13, 14; 23, 24; 33, 34: Safety output contacts (Normally Open, n/o) for controlling contactors or other safety-related parts of the control system.
- Y32: Нулиране на входа.
3.2. Индикатори
The front panel includes LED indicators to provide status information:
- мощност: Показва състоянието на захранването.
- In1, In2: Indicate the status of the input circuits.
- Излязло: Indicates the status of the output contacts.
- Нулиране: Indicates the status of the reset function.
- Грешка: Illuminates in case of an internal fault or wiring error.
4. Настройка и инсталация
4.1. Монтаж
The PNOZ s3 is designed for plug-in mounting onto a compatible base or DIN rail adapter. Ensure the mounting location is free from excessive vibration, moisture, and extreme temperatures. Allow adequate space for ventilation and wiring.
- Уверете се, че монтажната повърхност е чиста и суха.
- Align the relay with the corresponding slots on the base unit or DIN rail adapter.
- Gently push the relay into place until it clicks securely.
4.2. Окабеляване
All wiring must be performed according to the provided wiring diagrams from PILZ and relevant electrical standards. Use appropriate wire gauges and ensure all connections are secure to prevent loose contacts.
- Connect the 24VDC power supply to terminals A1 (+) and A2 (-).
- Connect the safety device inputs (e.g., E-STOP, safety gate contacts) to the S11, S12, S21, S22, S34 terminals as per the application's safety circuit design.
- Connect the safety outputs (13/14, 23/24, 33/34) to the control circuit of the machine, typically to contactor coils or other safety-related components.
- Connect the reset circuit to terminal Y32 if an external manual reset is required.
- Verify all wiring connections for correctness and tightness before applying power.
5. Инструкции за работа
Once properly installed and wired, the PNOZ s3 safety relay operates by monitoring the status of its input circuits. When all safety inputs are closed (e.g., E-STOP released, safety gate closed), and after a successful reset, the safety outputs will close, allowing the machine to operate. If any safety input opens, the outputs will immediately open, bringing the machine to a safe state.
5.1. Първоначално включване и нулиране
- Apply power to the PNOZ s3. The 'Power' LED should illuminate.
- Ensure all safety inputs are in their safe (closed) state. The 'In1' and 'In2' LEDs should indicate the status of the input circuits.
- If configured for manual reset, activate the reset button connected to Y32. The 'Reset' LED will briefly illuminate, and then the 'Out' LED should turn on, indicating the safety outputs are closed.
- If configured for automatic reset, the outputs will close automatically once all safety inputs are in their safe state.
5.2. Нормална работа
During normal operation, the 'Power', 'In1', 'In2', and 'Out' LEDs should be illuminated, indicating that the safety circuit is closed and the machine is enabled. If a safety function is activated (e.g., E-STOP pressed, safety gate opened), the corresponding input LED(s) will change state, and the 'Out' LED will turn off as the safety outputs open.
6. Поддръжка
The Pilz PNOZ s3 safety relay is designed for minimal maintenance. Regular inspections are recommended to ensure continued safe operation.
- Визуална проверка: Periodically check the relay for any signs of physical damage, discoloration, or loose connections.
- Почистване: If necessary, gently clean the exterior of the relay with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Функционален тест: Regularly test the safety functions connected to the relay (e.g., activate E-STOP, open safety gate) to ensure the relay responds correctly and brings the machine to a safe state.
7. Отстраняване на проблеми
