General Safety Information

IMPORTANT This application example is for advanced users and assumes that you are trained and experienced in safety system requirements.

Risk Assessments

ATTENTION: Perform a risk assessment to make sure that all task and hazard combinations have been identified and addressed.
The risk assessment can require additional circuitry to reduce the risk to a tolerable level. Safety circuits must consider safety-
distance calculations, which are not part of the scope of this document.

Contact Rockwell Automation to learn more about our safety-risk assessment services.

Safety Distance Calculations

ATTENTION: While safety distance or access time calculations are beyond the scope of this document, compliant safety circuits
must often consider a safety distance or access time calculation.

Non-separating safeguards provide no physical barrier to prevent access to a hazard. Publications that offer guidance for
calculating compliant safety distances for safety systems that use non-separating safeguards, such as light curtains, scanners,
two-hand controls, or safety mats, include the following:
EN ISO 13855:2010 (Safety of Machinery – Positioning of safeguards with respect to the approach speeds of parts
of the human body)
ANSI B11:19 2010 (Machines – Performance Criteria for Safeguarding)

Separating safeguards monitor a moveable, physical barrier that guards access to a hazard. Publications that offer guidance
for calculating compliant access times for safety systems that use separating safeguards, such as gates with limit switches or
interlocks (including SensaGuard™ switches), include the following:
EN ISO 14119:2013 (Safety of Machinery – Interlocking devices associated with guards - Principles for design and
selection)
EN ISO 13855:2010 (Safety of Machinery – Positioning of safeguards with respect to the approach speeds of parts
of the human body)
ANSI B11:19 2010 (Machines – Performance Criteria for Safeguarding)

Safety Function: Actuator Subsystems – Stop Category 0 or Stop Category 1 via a Configurable Safety Relay and PowerFlex 527 Drive with Hardwired Safe Torque-off

Introduction
This safety function application technique is concerned primarily with the logic and output subsystems of a safety system.
This document illustrates how to combine a Guardmaster® 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay with a PowerFlex® 527
drive to provide a stop category 0 (remove power, coast to stop) or stop category 1 (controlled stop, remove power) via a
hardwired connection to the safe torque-off (STO) inputs of the drive.

In an actual application, any typical, safety-input device could be used as the input subsystem, if properly applied. A
SensaGuard™ switch, as in Safety Function: Door Monitoring Products: SensaGuard/ GSR DI, publication
SAFETY-AT069, is used as a convenient example of an input subsystem in this document.

Safety Function Realization: Risk Assessment


The required performance level is the result of a risk assessment and refers to the amount of the risk reduction to be carried
out by the safety-related parts of the control system. Part of the risk reduction process is to determine the safety functions of
the machine. In this application, the performance level required (PLr) by the risk assessment is Category 3, Performance
Level d (CAT. 3, PLd), for each safety function. A safety system that achieves CAT. 3, PLd, or higher, can be considered
control reliable. Each safety product has its own rating and can be combined to create a safety function that meets or
exceeds the PLr.

Stop Safety Function


This application technique includes two safety functions:
• Safety-related stop function initiated by a safeguard.
• Prevention of an unexpected startup.

Safety Function Requirements

Safety-related Stop Function Initiated by a Safeguard

When an input subsystem places a demand on the safety function, the safety function initiates and maintains a stop
command for the safety system to stop hazardous motion before a person can reach the hazardous area. The stop command
cannot be reset until the demand is removed.

Rockwell Automation Publication SAFETY-AT143A-EN-P - August 2015 5


Safety Function: Actuator Subsystems – Stop Category 0 or Stop Category 1 via a Configurable Safety Relay and PowerFlex 527 Drive with Hardwired Safe Torque-off

Prevention of an Unexpected Start-up

The safety system cannot be reset, and hazardous motion cannot be restarted while there is a demand on the safety system.
Once the demand is removed and the stop command is reset, a second action (pressing a Start button) is required before the
hazardous motion can resume.

IMPORTANT The vendor must provide probability of failure per hour (PFH) and all relevant functional safety data for all subsystems of this
safety system necessary to prove that the overall safety functions meet the requirements for Performance Level d (PLd), per ISO
13849-1.

The safety functions in this application technique each meet or exceed the requirements for Category 3, Performance
Level d (CAT. 3, PLd), per ISO 13849-1 and control reliable operation per ANSI B11.19.

Considerations for Safety Distance and Stopping Performance

Based on the selection of a sensor subsystem, the risk assessment determines if a safety distance calculation is required.
Typically, a safety distance calculation is required if a non-separating sensor subsystem (such as a light curtain) is selected
for the safety function. For moveable separating safeguard systems, the overall system stopping-performance must be
calculated, measured, and compared to the calculated/measured access time.

When calculating a compliant safety distance for a non-separating safeguard system, see the Guardmaster 440C-CR30
Configurable Safety Relay User Manual, publication 440C-UM001, which provides the necessary response-time data.

When considering the overall system-stopping performance of a separating safeguard system, see the Guardmaster 440C-
CR30 Configurable Safety Relay User Manual, publication 440C-UM001, which provides response time data necessary
for calculating a theoretical overall system-stopping performance value in advance of performing actual tests and
measurements on the actual system.

The Guardmaster 440C-CR30 Configurable Safety Relay User Manual, publication 440C-UM001, also provides useful
guidance regarding the calculation of the safety-system response time.

Functional Safety Description


The Guardmaster 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay and PowerFlex 527 drives with integrated safe torque-off (STO)
use 1oo2 architecture to achieve the PFH value that is used in the PL calculation verification section of this document.

The Guardmaster 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay monitors its safety inputs for valid status and faults. The safety
relay monitors its internal circuitry for proper operation and faults. It monitors its inputs for valid status and faults. The
safety relay monitors its safety output contacts for proper, valid status and faults. When it receives a safety demand on its
inputs, or an invalid status or fault is detected, the safety relay deactivates its safety outputs and sends a safety stop
command.

The PowerFlex 527 drive monitors its STO inputs for valid status and faults. The drive monitors its internal safety circuits
and its outputs for valid status and faults. When the Guardmaster 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay de-energizes the
drive’s STO inputs, or an invalid state or fault is detected, the STO feature of the drive forces the drive output-power

transistors to a disabled state. The hazardous motion that is controlled by the drive coasts or ramps to a stop. This feature
does not provide electrical power isolation.

Hardwired Safety: Safe Torque-off Considerations for a Stop Category 1

In the event of a malfunction, it is possible that stop category 0 may occur. When designing the machine application, timing
and distance must be considered for a coast to stop, as well as the possibility of the loss of control of a vertical load. The
nature of a malfunction that causes this condition could be if a hardwired STO input to the drive were to go low (i.e. a wire
falls off ) before the drive has a chance to completely stop the motor. Use additional protective measures if this occurrence
might introduce unacceptable risks to personnel.

System Overview

Safety-related Stop Function Initiated by a Safeguard

The Guardmaster 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay monitors the status of a safety input device, for example a
SensaGuard switch. When the input device is tripped (guard door opened), the safety relay de-energizes its two safety
outputs and sends a safety stop command, which removes power from the PowerFlex 527 drive STO inputs. The drive
disables its output power transistors, and this action allows the driven hazardous motion to coast or ramp to a stop. The
overall system-stopping performance of the safety system must be determined by actual measurement. The worst-case stop
time must be used in the measurement of the overall system-stopping performance. All other response/reaction time data
that is required to calculate the overall system-stopping time can be taken from the product literature for the input, logic,
and output subsystems.

Prevention of an Unexpected Start-up

The Guardmaster 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay cannot be reset while its input device is in a tripped (guard door
open) state, the drive STO inputs remain off, and the hazardous motion cannot be restarted. When the input device is
returned to its safe state (guard door closed), and the reset button is pressed and released properly, the safety relay's safety
outputs energize and the drive STO inputs are powered. The hazardous motion can then be restarted by an additional,
separate action.

The PowerFlex 527 drive is configured by using the Studio 5000® environment, version 24 or later. A detailed description of
how to fully configure the PowerFlex 527 drive is beyond the scope of this document. Knowledge of the Studio 5000 Logix
Designer® application is assumed.

For a Stop Category 1, after a demand, an immediate controlled stop should be executed using a Motion Axis Stop or
Motion Servo Off command.

Calculation of the Performance Level


When properly implemented, the PowerFlex 527 drive with hardwired safe torque-off (STO) can be used in a safety
function that has a Performance Level required (PLr) rating of Category 3, Performance Level e (CAT. 3, PLe), according
to ISO 13849-1: 2008, as calculated by using the Safety Integrity Software Tool for the Evaluation of Machine Applications
(SISTEMA).

IMPORTANT To calculate the PL of your entire safety function, you must include the sensor subsystems along with the logic and actuator
subsystems shown here. Depending on the sensor subsystems and devices you choose, the overall safety rating of your system
could be reduced. An example that describes how to calculate the safety rating for a complete safety function appears in the
section titled Complete Safety Function PL Calculation Example on page 20.

The functional safety data for the Guardmaster 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay is provided from the Rockwell
Automation® SISTEMA library. The functional safety data for the PowerFlex 527 drive is from the PowerFlex 527

The PowerFlex 527 safety function achieves its necessary PLr.

Note: The PowerFlex 527 subsystem has a mission time of 10 years.

Verification and Validation Plan


Verification and validation play important roles in the avoidance of faults throughout the safety system design and
development process. ISO 13849-2 sets the requirements for verification and validation. The standard calls for a
documented plan to confirm that all safety functional requirements have been met.

Verification is an analysis of the resulting safety control system. The Performance Level (PL) of the safety control system is
calculated to confirm that the system meets the required Performance Level (PLr) specified. The SISTEMA software is
typically used to perform the calculations and assist with satisfying the requirements of ISO 13849-1.

Validation is a functional test of the safety control system to demonstrate that the system meets the specified requirements
of the safety function. The safety control system is tested to confirm that all safety-related outputs respond appropriately to
their corresponding safety-related inputs. The functional test includes normal operating conditions in addition to potential
fault injection of failure modes. A checklist is typically used to document the validation of the safety control system.

Before validating the system, confirm that the Guardmaster 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay has been wired and
configured in accordance with the installation instructions.

This document uses, as an example, a SensaGuard switch for an input device. Notice that all of the purposely-created faults
are created at the input terminals of the Guardmaster dual-input safety relay. All of the relay’s responses to these faults are
the same as they would be using any typical input device with OSSD outputs or an electro-mechanical input device using
the Guardmaster dual-input safety relay pulse test output feature.

Some of the SensaGuard switch’s reactions to these faults are unique to the SensaGuard switch, as some responses from
other OSSD devices might be unique to those devices.

IMPORTANT The following plan assumes a stop category 0 is being used. If your safety function requires a stop category 1, you must make
appropriate adaptations to the plan.

IMPORTANT In addition to the verification and validation steps that are provided here, consult the application technique for your input
subsystem for the steps that are required to validate the input device. Safety function application techniques are available at http:/
/marketing.rockwellautomation.com/safety/en/safety_functions.

Verification of the Configuration


You must confirm the verification of the 440C-CR30 configuration for each individual application by using the Verify
command in the configuration software. If the 440C-CR30 configurable safety relay is not verified, it will fault after 24
hours of operation.

ATTENTION: The verification process must be documented in the safety system's technical file.

To confirm the verification of the configuration, follow these steps.

1. Make sure that the 440C-CR30 relay is powered up and connected to your workstation via the USB cable.
2. Confirm that the upper right-hand corner of the Connected Components Workbench Project tab shows that the
440C-CR30 relay is connected. If it is not, click Connect to Device to establish the software connection.

3. Click Verify.

4. Answer all questions and check each box, if completed.

IMPORTANT All boxes must be marked to Generate the Verification ID.

5. Click Generate.
6. To proceed with the verification, click Yes.

After about ten seconds, a pop-up window appears to confirm that the Verify process was successful.
7. To change to Run mode, click Yes.

8. Record the Safety Verification ID in the machine documentation.

This process is the feedback to the 440C-CR30 relay that the system verification and functional tests have been
completed. The unique verification ID can be used to check if changes have been made to a configuration file. Any
change to the configuration removes the Safety Verification ID. Subsequent Verify actions generate a different
verification ID. The Safety Verification ID is displayed in Connected Components Workbench software only when
you are connected to the 440C-CR30 relay. The Safety Verification ID can be displayed on the IN and OUT input
and output status indicators of the 440C-CR30 safety relay at any time by pushing and holding the MEM/ID
button below the USB receptacle.
