B&R 2BM100.9 High-performance I/O module

B&R   2BM100.9  High-performance I/O module

Programmable logic controllers (e.g. PLCs, etc.), operating and monitoring devices (e.g.

industrial PCs, Power Panels, mobile panels, etc.), as well as B&R uninterruptible power

supplies, have been designed, developed and manufactured for conventional use in industry.

They were not designed, developed and manufactured for any use involving serious risks or

hazards that without the implementation of exceptionally stringent safety precautions could lead

to death, injury, serious physical damage or loss of any other kind. Such risks and hazards

include in particular the use of these devices to monitor and/or control nuclear reactions in

nuclear power plants, flight control systems, flight safety systems, mass transportation systems,

medical life support systems and weapons systems.

When using both programmable logic controllers and operating and monitoring devices as

control systems in conjunction with a Soft PLC (e.g. B&R Automation Runtime or comparable

products) or a Slot PLC (e.g. B&R LS251 or comparable products), the safety precautions

applying to industrial control systems (e.g. the provision of safety devices such as emergency

stop circuits, etc.) in accordance with applicable national and international regulations must be

observed. The same applies for all other devices connected to the system, e.g. drives.

All tasks such as installation, commissioning and service may only be carried out by qualified

personnel. Qualified personnel are persons familiar with transport, mounting, installation,

commissioning and operation of the product and have the respective qualifications (e.g.

IEC 60364). National accident prevention guidelines must be followed.

The safety guidelines, connection descriptions (rating plate and documentation) and limit values

listed in the technical data must be read carefully before installation and commissioning and

must be observed.

2.2  Intended Use

Electronic devices are generally not fail-safe. In the event of a failure on the programmable

control system, operating or monitoring device or uninterruptible power supply, the user is

responsible for ensuring that other devices that may be connected, such as motors, are made

secure.

2.3  Transport and Storage

Devices must be protected from excessive stress (mechanical load, temperature, humidity,

aggressive atmosphere) during transport and storage.

2.4  Installation

• The installation must take place according to the documentation using suitable

equipment and tools.

• The devices are only allowed to be installed without voltage applied and by qualified

personnel.

• General safety regulations and nationally applicable accident prevention guidelines must

be observed.

• Electrical installation must be carried out according to the relevant guidelines (e.g. line

cross section, fuse, protective ground connection).

2.5  Operation

2.5.1  Protection against Touching Electrical Parts

To operate programmable logic controllers, operating and monitoring devices and uninterruptible

power supplies, certain components must carry dangerous voltage levels of over 42 VDC. A life

threatening electrical shock could occur if you touch these parts. This could result in death,

severe injury or material damage.

Before turning on the programmable logic controller, the operational and monitoring devices or

the uninterruptible power supply, ensure that the housing is properly connected to protective

ground (PE rail). The ground connection must be established even when testing the operating

and monitoring devices or the uninterruptible power supply as well as when operating them for

only a short time.

Before turning the device on, make sure that all voltage carrying parts are securely covered.

During operation, all covers must remain closed.
