## Emergency Stop Safety Relay ESM-BA3.. 

## User Information 

## _Correct Use_ 

The ESM-BA3..  is a universal emergency stop safety switching device with three safe relay outputs that can quickly and safely stop the moving parts of a machine or system in case of danger. 

Applications for the ESM-BA3.. include single or dual-channel emergency stop circuits and guard monitoring on machines and systems. 

- _Features_ • _3 safe, redundant relay outputs_ 

   - _1 auxiliary contact (signaling contact)_ 

   - _Connection of:_ 

   - _Emergency stop buttons_ 

   - _Safety switches_ 

   - _Non-contact safety switches_ 

   - _OSSD-Outputs_ 

   - _Single and dual-channel operation possible_ 

   - _Feedback loop for monitoring downstream contactors or expansion modules_ 

- _Cyclical monitoring of the output contacts_ 

- _Indication of the switching state via LED_ 

- _2 start behaviors possible:_ 

- _Monitored manual start_ 

- _Automatic start_ 

- _Short circuit and earth fault monitoring_ 

- _Up to PL e, SILCL 3, category 4_ 

## _Function_ 

The emergency stop safety switching device ESM-BA3.. is designed for safe isolation of safety circuits according to EN 60204-1 and can be used up to safety category 4, PL e according to EN ISO 13849-1. 

The internal logical system closes the safety contacts when the start button is pressed. 

When the safety switch is opened, the positively driven safety contacts are opened and safely switch the machine off. It is ensured that a single fault does not lead to a loss of the safety function and that every fault is detected by cyclical self-monitoring no later than when the system is switched off and switched on again.

   - Observe the country-specific regulations when installing the device. 

   - The electrical connection of the device is only allowed to be made with the device isolated. 

   - The wiring of the device must comply with the instructions in this user information, otherwise there is a risk that the safety function will be lost. 

   - It is not allowed to open the device, tamper with the device or bypass the safety devices. 

      - All relevant safety regulations and standards are to be observed. 

      - The overall concept of the control system in which the device is incorporated must be validated by the user. 

      - Failure to observe the safety regulations can result in death, serious injury and serious damage. 

      - Note down the version of the product (see label “Vx.x.x”) and check it prior to every commissioning of a new device. If the version has changed, the overall concept of the control system in which the device is incorporated must be validated again by the user. 

- _Electrical_ • When the 24 V version is used, a safety transformer _Connection_ according to EN 61558-2-6 or a power supply unit with electrical isolation from the mains must be connected. 

   - External fusing of the safety contacts (6A slow-blow or 8A quick-action or 10 A gG) must be provided. 

   - A maximum length of the control lines of 1000 meters with a line cross section of 0.75 mm[2] must not be exceeded. 

   - The line cross section must not exceed 2.5 mm[2] . 

   - If the device does not function after commissioning, it must be returned to the manufacturer unopened. Opening the device will void the warranty.

_Commissioning_ _**Note:** The items listed under “Electrical connection” must be observed during commissioning. Procedure_ 

**1. Wiring emergency stop circuit:** 

Wire the emergency stop circuit according to the required Performance Level determined (see Fig. 1 to Fig. 5). 

**2. Wiring start circuit:** Wire the start circuit according to Fig. 6 or Fig. 7 to set the starting behavior. 

_**Warning:**_ 

If “Automatic start” is set, bear in mind that the safety contacts will switch immediately after the power supply is connected. If “Monitored manual start” is set, the start button must be opened after wiring. 

**3. Wiring feedback loop:** 

If your application provides for external contactors or expansion modules, connect them to the device according to Fig.8 or Fig. 9. 

**4. Wiring power supply:** 

Connect the power supply to terminals A1 and A2 (Fig. 10). _**Warning:**_ Wiring only in de-energized state. 

**5. Starting the device:** Switch the operating voltage on. 

## _**Warning:**_ 

If the “Automatic start” starting behavior is set, the safety contacts will close immediately. 

If the “Monitored manual start” starting behavior is set, close the start button to close the safety contacts. 

LEDs _**K1**_ and _**K2**_ are lit. 

**6. Triggering safety function:** Open the emergency stop circuit by actuating the connected safety switch. The safety contacts open immediately. 

**7. Reactivation:** 

Close the emergency stop circuit. If “Automatic start” is selected, the safety contacts will close immediately. If the “Monitored manual start” starting behavior is set, close the start button to close the safety contacts.
