Fuse protection

Notice

Adequately protect power supply units

Always use the components recommended by Beckhoff for optimum design and operation of your system.

If you use components other than those recommended in this chapter, the protection must be designed separately. Note that the selected circuit breaker can be triggered at a higher current than 16 A with the power supply used. Please refer to the power supply manufacturer's documentation.

Failure to do so may damage the system in the event of a short circuit.

Fuse protection 1:

Avoid false tripping of the circuit breaker

Use a circuit breaker with a minimum value of 6 A with B characteristic or 3 A with C characteristic to avoid false tripping of the circuit breaker.

Fuse protection 2:

Self-locking of the mover according to the armature short-circuit principle

The modules have no Safe Torque Off | STO function and no Safe Limited Speed | SLS function.
