Banner Universal Input Safety Modules - Manual

For 24V ac/dc operation, solid-state or relay inputs
• Monitors a wide variety of safety and non-safety input devices:
• Optical-based safeguarding devices, such as Safety Laser Scanners
• Positive-opening safety switches used for guard interlocking
• Emergency-stop devices, such as palm buttons and rope/cable pulls
• Standard sensors for non-safety applications, such as photoelectric monitoring position
or end-of-travel.
• The safety inputs can monitor:
• +24V dc solid-state (PNP) outputs in single-channel or dual-channel hookup
• +24V dc source that is switched by hard/relay contacts in single-channel or dual-chan-
nel hookup
• Hard/relay contacts in a dual-channel hookup using terminals S11-S12 and S21-S22
• UM-FA-9A: Three normally open (N.O.) output switching channels for connection to con-
trol-reliable power interrupt circuits
• UM-FA-11A: Two normally open (N.O.) and one normally closed (N.C.) output switching
channels for connection to control-reliable power interrupt circuits
• Automatic reset or monitored manual reset, depending on hookup
• Design complies with standards ANSI B11.19 Control Reliability, ISO 13850 (EN418), and
ISO 13849-1 (EN954-1) Category 4
• Safety Integrity Level SIL 3 per IEC 61508/IEC 62061
• Category 4 Performance level PL e per ISO 13849-1
• For use in functional stop category 0 applications per ANSI NFPA 79 and IEC/EN 60204-1
• Plug-in terminal blocks
• 24V ac/dc operation
Models Output Switching Channels Safety Output Contact Rating

UM-FA-11A 2 normally open (N.O.), and 1 normally closed (N.C.) 7A
WARNING: Not a Safeguarding Device
This Banner device is considered complementary equipment that is used to augment safeguarding that
limits or eliminates an individual's exposure to a hazard without action by the individual or others. Failure
to properly safeguard hazards per a risk assessment, local regulations and relevant standards
could lead to serious injury or death.
