"Ground faults in any control circuit must not lead to unintentional starting or potentially hazardous movements or prevent the machine from stopping." (IEC 60204‑1 / VDE 0113‑1).

The AS‑Interface ground-fault detection module is used to meet these requirements. Using this module from the SlimLine series, ground faults in AS‑Interface systems can be reliably detected and reported.

The following ground faults are detected:

• Ground fault from AS-i "+"
• Ground fault from AS-i "-"
• Ground fault from sensors and actuators which are supplied from the AS‑Interface voltage.

Note:

Not suitable for AS-Interface Power24V
