Comparison between conventional and integrated safety systems

The safety functions integrated into the drive can greatly reduce the effort required to implement safety concepts.

The integrated safety functions provide support when setting up tailored safety concepts. Configurations of safety concepts are given below based on the example of the SINAMICS G120D.

Safe Torque Off (STO)

Classic implementation using an external circuit

Integrated safety solution via PROFIsafe

Safe Stop 1 (SS1)

Classic implementation using an external circuit

Integrated safety solution via PROFIsafe

Safely-Limited Speed (SLS)

Classic implementation using an external circuit

Integrated safety solution via PROFIsafe
