Chapter 6 Kinetix 350 Drive Safe Torque-off Feature
Safe Torque-off Wiring Requirements
The following are the safe torque-off (STO) wiring requirements. The wire
must be copper with 75 °C (167 °F) minimum rating.

IMPORTANT The National Electrical Code and local electrical codes take precedence over
the values and methods provided.
IMPORTANT Stranded wires must terminate with ferrules to prevent short circuits, per
table D7 of EN ISO 13849.

IMPORTANT Use only pins STO-1 (+24V DC Control) and STO-2 (Control COM) of the
motion-allowed jumpers to defeat the safe torque-off function. When the
safe torque-off function is in operation, the 24V supply must come from an
external source.
IMPORTANT To be sure of system performance, run wires and cables in the wireways as
established in the user manual for your drive.
