Product description
This chapter provides information on the special features and properties of the safe bus
node UE3212. It describes the layout and the operating principle of the device.
Please read this chapter before mounting, installing and commissioning the device.
3.1 AS2Interface Safety at Work
AS6Interface Safety at Work combines safe data and data that is not safe in mixed ope-
ration on one bus system. The term AS6Interface Safety at Work identifies here the safe
transmission for the integration of protective devices in an AS6Interface network.
AS6Interface Safety at Work components are compatible with all other AS6Interface
components in accordance with EN 50 295 and IEC 62 02662. Existing AS6Interface
applications can therefore be straightforwardly extended with safety-relevant functions.
AS6Interface Safety at Work always requires a safety monitor that evaluates the safe
signals in the bus, and a safe AS6Interface bus node that makes it possible to transmit
safe signals from safety-relevant components.
There are two types of safe AS6Interface bus node:
safe bus nodes to which safety-relevant components, e.g. electro-sensitive protective
equipment, emergency stop pushbuttons or safety door switches can be connected
safety-relevant components with already integrated AS6Interface Safety at Work
interface
Several safety monitors and up to 31 safe bus nodes can be used in an AS6Interface
system. The parameters for the safety monitors can be set and diagnostics can be
performed using the AS6Interface and configuration software.
