Process passive contact signals (Not-Aus, Sicherheitstore, door interlock switches)

ERR fault output for external PLC / indicator light diagnosis

No automatic reset; Safety circuit must be reclosed to reset after fault clearance

Safety circuit monitoring for machine tools, Verpackungsausrüstung, automatische Produktionslinien, Spritzgießmaschinen, logistics sorting systems, lithium battery equipment and rail transit equipment

6. Series Model Comparison (Auswahlreferenz)

7. Critical Risk Warnings
8. Only applicable to passive contact safety switches. For safety light curtains (active AOPD), select model SRB301LC/B with suffix B
9. Stop Category 0: Main circuit power cut-off with instantaneous stop; Not suitable for equipment requiring delayed braking
10. Forced-guided contacts shall not be connected in parallel for capacity expansion; External contactors are required for heavy loads
11. Must be matched with Cat.4 dual-channel safety components; Single-channel wiring cannot achieve PL e rating

Full Output Contact Capacity Specifications of SRB301LC-24V (Teile-Nr. 101163475)

1. 3 Main Safety Normally Open Contacts (13-14 / 23-24 / 33-34)

1.1 Standard Rated Capacity for Resistive Loads

Max voltage: 250 VAC

Nennstrom: 6 A (AC-1 resistive)

Minimum reliable switching capacity: 10 V / 10 mA (to avoid contact non-conduction)

1.2 Standard Utilization Categories (IN 60947-5-1)

AC-15 (Induktive Lasten: AC solenoid valves / Schütze): 230 VAC / 6 A

DC-13 (Induktive Lasten: DC solenoid valves): 24 VDC / 6 A

1.3 Peak / Short-term Parameters (For Reference Only, Not for Continuous Operation)

The datasheet states a short-term limit of 8A. For engineering continuous loads, sizing shall be based on 6A. Freewheeling diodes or varistors shall be connected in parallel for arc suppression on inductive loads.

1.4 Matched Protection Fuse

Standard 6A time-lag fuse for safety circuit; Higher rated fuses are strictly prohibited.

2. 1 Auxiliary Normally Closed Fault Contact (41-42 ERR Diagnosis)

Nennkapazität: 24 VDC / 2 A

Matched fuse: 2A time-lag fuse; Only for small signal loops such as PLC feedback and fault indicator lights, not for heavy loads.

3. Schlüsselauswahl & Operation Restrictions
4. Parallel connection of the three safety contacts for capacity expansion is forbidden. External safety contactors must be used for loads exceeding 6A.
5. Stop Category 0 with instantaneous cut-off, suitable for cutting off main contactor coil circuits via emergency stops and safety gates.
6. Arc suppression circuits are mandatory for inductive loads (Magnetventile, Spulen), otherwise contact service life will be drastically shortened.
7. Derating is required at ambient temperature above 40℃; Max switching frequency is 5Hz.

Official Standard Response & Delay Specifications of SRB301LC-24V (101163475)

1. Trip Response Time (Cut-off triggered by emergency stop / Sicherheitstor, core safety index)
2. Maximum rated dropout delay specified in official manual: ≤50 ms
3. Typical measured value of SRB301LC/B with identical architecture: ≤25 ms (Total breaking time of main safety contacts after dual-channel fault or emergency stop input disconnection)

> Notiz: 50ms is the conservative upper limit from the manufacturer. Under normal engineering operating conditions, cut-off is generally completed within 20～30ms, complying with Stop Category 0 emergency stop safety regulations.

2. Make Delay (Safety circuit recovery, contact closing)
3. Make delay for manual start via reset button: ≤20 ms (Output energized after safety gate closed and reset button pressed)
4. Make delay under auto-start mode: ≤300 ms (Scenario without reset button, auto-energization upon power-up)
5. Typical basic make delay stated in general datasheets: ≈30 ms
6. Supplementary Key Notes
7. This response time covers the total duration of dual-channel input logic detection plus internal electromechanical relay breaking, not merely mechanical contact actuation time.
8. Drahtbruch, cross-channel short-circuit and ground fault detection also cut off safety outputs within ≤50ms.
9. Compared with LC/B light curtain version with trip time ≤25ms, the upper limit for SRB301LC-24V (standard passive contact model) is extended to 50ms. 50ms shall be adopted for safety distance calculation in SISTEMA safety assessments.
10. Upper switching frequency limit: 5Hz; Minimum full cycle make-break period: 200MS. High-frequency operation is not allowed.
11. Reference for Safety Calculation During Selection

If the equipment requires total shutdown reaction time (schalten + Relais + Schütz), adopt the conservative value of 50ms for this relay to calculate safety distance.
