1.5 Safe Torque Off (STO)
The STO safety implementation on the MKD is certified. The safety circuit implementation
used for the safety function "Safe Torque Off" in the drive is suited for SIL 2 according to IEC
62061 and PLd / CAT3 according to ISO 13849-1.
Refer to the MKD Installation Manual for full information on functional safety.
The safety properties given by Kollmorgen listed in the appendix (➜ # 154) can be reached if
the Kollmorgen components are used. The resulting Functional Safety classification (SIL
and/or PL level) must be calculated across the drive system.
Global STO
There is one STO input for every DC Power string. The string STO input release the power
output stage of all AKD-N (without option DS/DT) connected to the string as long as a 24 V
signal is applied to this input.
Local STO
The local STO input releases the power output stage of the MKD-N drive axis as long as a
24 V signal is applied to this input.
