Failsafe digital module DM-F
The failsafe digital module DM-F extends the SIMOCODE pro motor
management system with failsafe functions for switching off motors:
• Failsafe digital module DM-F Local
• Failsafe digital module DM-F PROFIsafe.
These modules fulfill the general requirements for EMERGENCY STOP
mechanisms or safety circuits, as described in the standards EN 418 and
EN 60204-1 (06/2006).
Depending on the external circuit, the following Performance Level/Safety
Integrity Level can be achieved:
• PL e Category 4 according to ISO 13849-1 or
• SIL 3 according to IEC 61508/62061.
Safety technology and safety-oriented functions
• Are limited exclusively to failsafe digital modules.
• Do not directly affect existing SIMOCODE pro components and concepts.
