Typical system times
Ready delay: After switching on, the unit carries out a self-test for 8 s. The system
is ready for operation only after this time.
Risk time according to EN 60947-5-3: If a handle module moves outside the
operating distance, the safety outputs FO1A and FO1B on the corresponding inter-
locking module are deactivated after a maximum of 260 ms. If more than one device
is used, the value increases correspondingly (see System times for switch chains).
Difference time: The safety outputs FO1A and FO1B switch with a slight delay
in relation to each other. They have the same signal state at the latest after a
difference time of 10 ms.

Important!
The system times shown are maximum values for a circuit arrangement with
20 safety switches connected in series. Shorter times can also be achieved in
circuits with fewer switches.
