VersaPoint potential and data routing

For operation, the safety module must be integrated in a VersaPoint station within the Ver-
saSafe system.
The bus signals are transmitted via the VersaPoint data jumpers. The required supply volt-
ages are transmitted via the VersaPoint potential jumpers.
For more detailed information about potential and data routing within a VersaPoint sta-
tion, please refer to the GFK-2736 user manual.
The segment circuit is looped through the safety module and is available again after the
module. The segment circuit cannot be accessed in the safety module.

Supply voltage U

Feed in the 24 V supply voltage U
The 7.5 V voltage U is generated from this 24 V supply voltage in the bus coupler or power
L
terminal. It is made available to the safety module via the VersaPoint potential jumper U
WARNING: Loss of the safety function when using unsuitable power supplies
For the voltage supply at the bus coupler or power terminal, please note:
Only power supplies according to EN 50178/VDE 0160 (PELV) may be used.
Please also observe the points in "Electrical safety" on page 1-2.
The supply voltage U is used to supply the bus controller board and the communications

The maximum current carrying capacity for the supply voltage U
This current carrying capacity can be reduced if certain terminals are used. Please refer to
the information in the terminal-specific data sheets.
