Frequently Asked Questions

Safety Relay Topic: Feedback Circuit

 

FAQ No. FAQ02344

 

Question

 

What is the feedback circuit for in Safety Relay Units?


 

Answer


The feedback circuit is used, for example, to detect welding in NO contacts in contactors that drive motors.

 

It is possible to ensure safety because this feedback circuit prevents the Safety Relay Unit restarting even if the NO contacts in the contactor are welded.

 

However, the contactors need to be doubled.
