3.1.1 Safety Standards
MSR300 Series Modules conform to the Essential Health & Safety Requirements
(EHSR's) of the European Machinery Directive (98/37/EC), the relevant requirements of
the Low Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC as amended by 93/68 EEC) and the essential
protection requirements of the EMC Directive (89/336/EEC as amended by 92/31 EEC).
The MSR310P also conforms to EN 292, EN 60204-1, EN61508, EN 954-1, and UL 508.
3.1.1.1 EN 954-1
This product conforms to Category 4 of EN954-1: Safety-Related Parts Of Control
Systems.
The main stipulations of this standard are:
Safety-related parts of control systems conforming to Category 4 shall be designed so
that:
•A single fault in any of these safety-related parts does not lead to a loss of the
safety function.
•The single fault is detected at or before the next demand upon the safety functions,
e.g. immediately at switch on, at end of a machine operating cycle. If this detection
is not possible, then an accumulation of faults shall not lead to a loss of the safety
function.
If the detection of certain faults is not possible, at least during the next check-up after the
occurrence of the fault, for reasons of technology or circuit engineering, the occurrence of
further faults shall be assumed. In this situation the accumulation of faults shall not lead
to the loss of the safety function.
Fault review may be stopped when the probability of occurrence of further faults is
considered to be sufficiently low. In this case the number of faults in combination, which
need to be taken into consideration, will depend upon the technology, structure and
application but shall be sufficient to meet the detection criteria.
3.1.1.2 IEC/EN 61508
This product has been designed to conform to SIL 3 of IEC/EN 61508: Functional Safety
of Electrical / Electronic / Programmable Electronic Safety-Related Systems, Parts 1-7,
1998.
IEC/EN 61508 relates to the functional safety of electrical, electronic, and programmable
electronic safety-related systems. These are referred to as Safety Instrumented Systems
(SIS). IEC/EN 61508 is an umbrella standard applicable to all industries. Safety Integrity
Level (SIL) is a statistical representation of the reliability of the SIS. Four SIL levels are
defined: SIL 1 through SIL 4. The higher the SIL number, the more reliable or effective

MSR300 Safety System Manual
Rockwell Automation MSR300 Manual.doc Pg 11 of 85
the system is. SILs are correlated to the probability of failure of demand (PFD), which is
equivalent to the unavailability of a system at the time of a process demand.
IEC/EN 61508 is approximately equivalent to ANSI/ISA-S84.0: Application of Safety
Instrumented Systems for the Process Industries," Instrument Society of America
Standards and Practices, 1996.

3.1.2 MSR300 Safety Relay Functions
MSR300 Systems can be used for various safety relay functions outlined below, when
appropriately configured for the respective function.
Simultaneity monitoring (sometimes referred to as synchronization monitoring or
coincidence gating) is often necessary for many of these safety applications. This means
that 2 (sometimes even 3) input contacts must be closed (or reset) simultaneously to
clear this set of inputs (simultaneity between all channels of one input). For these
applications, the allowable time window is 3 seconds. Another common application that
involves simultaneity monitoring (0.5 seconds window) is two-hand safety control.
(simultaneity activation of both inputs of one module).
3.1.2.1 One-Channel Emergency Stop
•Safety output contacts are opened if the input loop is open.
•Stop category: 0.
•Short-circuiting of the input loop to electrical ground or 24V will be detected.
3.1.2.2 Two-Channel Emergency Stop
•Safety output contacts are opened if at least one input loop is open.
•Stop category: 0.
•Short-circuiting of the input loop to electrical ground or 24V will be detected.
•Cross loops will be detected.
•Suitable for use with safety mats.
•Can be configured for simultaneity detection: 3 seconds limit.
3.1.2.3 Three-Channel Emergency Stop
•Safety output contacts are opened if at least one input loop is open.
•Stop category: 0.
•Short-circuiting of the input loop to electrical ground or 24V will be detected.
•Cross loops will be detected.
•Can be configured for simultaneity detection: 3 seconds limit.
3.1.2.4 Two-Channel Safety Gates
•Safety output contacts are opened if the N/O input is closed or the N/C input is
open
•Stop category: 0.
•Short-circuiting of the input loop to electrical ground or 24V will be detected.
•Cross loops will be detected.
•Can be configured for simultaneity detection: 3 seconds limit.
•Can be configured to execute a start-up test of the input loops.
3.1.2.5 Two-Channel Light Curtain
•Safety output contacts are opened if one or more inputs have has no signal.
•Stop category: 0.

MSR300 Safety System Manual
Rockwell Automation MSR300 Manual.doc Pg 13 of 85
3.1.2.6 Two-Hand Control
•Two-hand control type IIIC (EN 574)
•Simultaneity detection: 0.5 seconds limit.
The two-hand control function ensures that operators keep their hands clear of a
hazardous area of a machine. It is meant for use with machines such as mechanical and
hydraulic presses. A machine cycle can only be initiated by pressing two momentary
pushbutton switches simultaneously. Switches must fulfill the requirements of EN574 type
IIIC. Releasing one or both pushbutton switches open the output contacts to interrupt the
cycle and stop the machine. The output contacts can be closed again only after the inputs
have released and the pushbutton switches actuated again.
If a machine is operated by more than one person simultaneously, separate two-hand
controls are required for each operator station.
The two-hand operator station should be located far enough from the hazardous area so
that the latter cannot be reached by the operator before the machine stops (after a stop
command is given).
Typical applications of two-hand safety controls are: presses, shears, plastic-molding
machines, etc.
3.1.2.7 Reset Action
The reset logic of the three Output Groups of the system can be configured for one of the
following modes:
•Automatic reset: The Output Group is active as soon as all input circuits and
feedback loop are closed.
•Manual monitored reset: The Output Group is not active until the reset button has
been operated and then released (and feedback loop closed). This eliminates the
possibility of triggering automatic activation if the reset switch is overridden.
•Manual (non-monitored) reset: The Output Group can be set up for automatic reset
and yet have a reset contact connected in series with the feedback loop. In this
case manual reset is not monitored.
3.1.2.8 Muting (for Robot cell applications)
Muting is the safe, automatic and temporary suspension of an electrosensitive protective
device, in accordance with EN 61496-1 A.7. Muting is typically applied to allow material in
process to be moved into and out of a hazardous area. The presence / movement of such
material can be detected by muting sensors. Typically, muting causes the signal inputs
from safety barriers such as opto-switches or light curtains to be temporarily ignored, -
only as long as the muting sensors detect material in process approaching entry to, or
exit from a machine. MSR300 muting does not monitor material flow but is especially
designed and limited to applications as explained in the Robot cell examples later in this
document (safe position monitoring of the Robot arm).

MSR300 Safety System Manual
Rockwell Automation MSR300 Manual.doc Pg 14 of 85
Muting lamps are deployed to indicate that muting is existent. Special safety controls are
necessary to ensure that muting lamps operate correctly and safely. The MSR329 Muting
Lamp Controller is expressly designed for this purpose. Details of this module are given
later in this document.
3.2 MSR300 System: Overview
The MSR300 System is a modular safety control system with extended functions, and is
intended for monitoring and safety control of:
•1-, 2-, or 3-channel emergency stops
•Safety gates and doors
•Light curtains
•Safety mats
•Two-hand control
An MSR300 System is made up of a combination of the following MSR300 Series
Modules:
•MSR310 Base Module
•MSR320 Input Module
•MSR330 Output Module
•MSR329 Muting Lamp Module:
An MSR300 System is constituted as follows:
•One MSR310 Base Module
•At least one MSR320 Input Module
•At least one MSR330 Output Module
•One MSR329 Muting Modules may be optionally included if needed (provided one
MSR320 Input Module is configured for the robot function).
MSR320 and MSR329 Modules are daisy-chain connected to the left bus interface
connector of the MSR310 Base Module. Up to ten MSR 320 Input Modules can be
included in an MSR300 System, for a maximum of 20 input circuits.
MSR330 Output Modules are daisy-chain connected to the right bus interface connector
of the MSR310 Base Module. Up to six MSR330 Output Modules can be included in an
MSR300 System, for a maximum of 18 N/O safety outputs plus 6 N/C auxiliary outputs.
The integrity of all safety inputs are constantly checked by means of feedback of the
safety loops. Dynamic (pulse frequency) excitation signals are generated by the MSR310
Base Module. These signals are fed (as a star-connected bus) to monitor the contact(s)
of every safety sensing device connected to the MSR 300 System. The signals are then
feed back to the Input Module to which each corresponding safety contact input is
connected. If a safety-sensing device is defective the system will detect non-valid signals
or signal sequences on the Inputs. This causes a fail-safe fault response by the MSR300
System.
Every input can be connected to a separate input switching circuit.
Input modules can be freely assigned to any output group module.

MSR300 Safety System Manual
Rockwell Automation MSR300 Manual.doc Pg 15 of 85
Unintended modifications to MSR300 Systems are prevented by design. The system
configuration is automatically checked when it is first started up, and this information is
stored in non-volatile memory (EEPROM) in the Base Module. Whenever the system is
started up (or restarted) thereafter, the current system configuration is checked against
the stored configuration. If a discrepancy is detected, a fault response is immediately
generated, with appropriate diagnostic indication and output (see setup details in Chapter
7.3).
The MSR300 System is suitable for safety monitoring and control of robot cells, with or
without additional safe areas. The special MSR329 Muting Lamp Module is available for
this.
Special logic functions can be implemented in MSR300 Systems (see Section 5.2 and
Chapter 8).
