Safe Torque Off
The drive supports the Safe Torque Off function according to standards
prEN 61800-5-2; EN 954-1 (1997); IEC/EN 60204-1: 1997; EN 61508: 2002 and
EN 1037: 1996.
The Safe Torque Off function disables the control voltage of the power
semiconductors of the drive output stage, thus preventing the inverter from
generating the voltage required to rotate the motor (see diagram below). By using
this function, short-time operations (like cleaning) and/or maintenance work on non-
electrical parts of the machinery can be performed without switching off the power
supply to the drive.
Control
circuit
WARNING! The Safe Torque Off function does not disconnect the voltage of the
main and auxiliary circuits from the drive. Therefore maintenance work on electrical
parts of the drive or the motor can only be carried out after isolating the drive system
from the main supply.
Note: It is not recommended to stop the drive by using the Safe Torque Off function.
If a running drive is stopped by using the Safe Torque Off function, the drive will stop
by coasting. If this is not acceptable (e.g. causes danger), the drive and machinery
must be stopped using the appropriate stopping mode before using this function.
For further information on the function, refer to Safe Torque Off Function, Application
Guide (3AFE68929814 [English]).
