Operating Instructions
Read and understand these instructions before installing,
operating, or maintaining the equipment.
DANGER
!
Hazardous voltage.
Will cause death or serious injury.
Turn off and lock out all power supplying this device before
working on this device.
CAUTION
Reliable functioning of the equipment is only ensured with certi-
fied components.
The devices must be installed in a switchgear cabinet with the IP32,
IP43 or IP54 degree of protection, depending on the ambient conditions.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The products described herein are designed to be components of a custom-ized
machinery safety-oriented control system. A complete safety-oriented system
may include safety sensors, evaluators, actuators and signaling components. It
is the responsibility of each company to conduct its own evaluation of the effec-
tiveness of the safety system with the help of suitably trained persons. ABB AG
and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively "ABB") are not in a position to
evaluate all of the characteristics of a given machine or product or machine not
designed by ABB.
ABB accepts no liability for any recommendation that may be implied or stated
herein. The warranty contained in the contract of sale by ABB is the sole war-
ranty of ABB. Any statements contained herein do not create new warranties or
modify existing ones.
Application
The C579 is used to expand the enabling circuits. You can combine it with any
C579 basic unit. The max. achievable Performance Level PL / Cat. according to
DIN EN ISO 13849-1, and / or SIL according to DIN EN / IEC 62061 is the same as
for the basic device, when the external circuit (connection between basic device
and expansion unit) has been carried out in a failsafe way. The user must carry
out an evaluation of the overall systems.
Functions and connections
The C579 has four safe enabling circuits as NO circuits and one positively-driven
NC circuit. Two LEDs indicate the operating condition.
The C579 can be controlled via any enabling circuit in the basic unit. NC circuit
51/52 of the C579 is looped into the feedback circuit of the basic unit.
The internal circuit is functionally tested by the upstream basic unit.
