1WARNINGS
This document describes the Safe Torque Off (STO) safety function of the Rowan inverters and is
completion of the "Installation and Operation Manuals" of the C350, C400 and C700 series Rowan
inverters.
The Safe Torque Off (STO) safety function is certified by Underwrites Laboratories (UL).
ROWAN ELETTRONICA s.r.l. declines all responsibility for any inaccuracies contained in this
manual due to printing and/or transcription errors. It also reserves the right to make, at its own
discretion and without notice, any changes it deems necessary for the best functioning of the
product.
1.1 Description of the symbols used in this manual
Indicates that the subject to which it refers is related to an immediate or possible danger, failure to
comply with what is described may result in death, serious injury or damage to property.
Indicates that the subject to which it refers indicates the presence of a dangerous voltage. Indicates
that there are High Voltage conditions - or in any case dangerous levels - that can cause serious injury
or death.
1.2 Important safety and risk assessment warnings
This document can only be used after reading and understanding the
installation and operating manual of the inverter you want to use, with
particular attention to the chapters: "GENERAL WARNINGS BEFORE
INSTALLATION", "MECHANICAL INSTALLATION" and "ELECTRICAL
INSTALLATION".
The Installation and User Manuals have the following codes: MANU.350S,
MANU.400S and MANU.700S; they can be downloaded in pdf format from the
website www.rowan.it in the DOWNLOAD section or be requested directly to
Rowan Elettronica.
Do not use the safety functions of Rowan inverters unless you have read and
understood all parts of this document.
Rowan recommends testing the safety function at regular intervals based on
the outcome of the risk assessment.
Activation of the STO safety function causes the inverter's IGBT driver section
to be disconnected from the power supply; if the function is activated, there is
always dangerous voltage inside the inverter, at the inverter's power terminals
(terminals L1, L2, L3, U, V, W, F, F+, -) and at the engine terminals: the
electrical parts of the inverter and engine cannot be accessed.

Safety Manual for C350, C400 and C700 inverters 11/06/2018 Rev.2
The use and installation of Rowan inverters - especially in safety function
systems - must be evaluated and followed by qualified personnel, with specific
knowledge and skills regarding the installation, assembly, functional safety,
operation and specificity of the PDS and PDS (SR) - Power Drive System Safety
Related drives.
Incorrect use of safety related operations can result in uncontrolled PDS starts
that can cause death or serious damage to people and property.
Improper use of the STO function or incorrect connection are responsibility of
the user.
If, after activating the STO function, there is a possibility that personnel may
be injured, inhibit access to the risk area until the PDS has completely stopped.
After activating the STO function, the engine is free to rotate; the inverter does
not apply any electrical braking.
In general, depending on the application, a mechanical brake may be required.
In particular, the STO function may not be used in the case of hanging loads
(e.g. lifts, cranes, etc.) without mechanical brakes.
In the event of an anomaly or fault relating to the STO function, send the
inverter to ROWAN ELETTRONICA Srl for the necessary repair work; any
change by the user not specifically indicated by Rowan Elettronica Srl is
prohibited.
In case of a voltage dip, the inverters inhibit the engine from running for the
duration of the dip and restore it at the end of it; this behaviour must be taken
into account for the purposes of managing the safety of the machine.
In the C350 series inverters, if parameter 100.9 POWER LOSS CONTROL is
active (set to YES), when there is a voltage dip or no signal or a phase failure,
the inverter, after inhibiting the engine from running for a few seconds,
resumes control of the engine to brake it even if the connection is missing or
disconnected.
This behaviour must be taken into account when managing the safety of the
machine or of the system.
This particular function of the C350 inverter cannot and must not be
considered as a functional safety function.

3THE STO SAFETY FUNCTION (Safe Torque Off)
Rowan inverters integrate the STO safety function, so that they can be used to create a PDS(SR).
The STO safety function is a function that allows you to implement an EMERGENCY RESPONSE
with safe inhibition of engine torque, in which case the engine becomes free to rotate based on its
own inertia and load (uncontrolled stop, in accordance with stop category 0 according to IEC
60204-1).
This function does not disconnect the machine from the mains.
If it is necessary to intervene on the electrical system of the PDS - i.e. on the inverter,
the engine or the wiring - the entire PDS must absolutely be isolated from the power
grid (See EN60204-1)
The STO function is defined in EN 61800-5-2 (2007) as follows:
The power supply, which may cause rotation (or movement in the case of a linear engine), is not applied to the
engine. The PDS (SR) does not provide the engine with the power to generate a torque (or a force in the case of a
linear motor).
Note 1: This function corresponds to an uncontrolled stop, which complies with stop category 0 according to IEC
60204-1.
Note 2: This safety function can be used when disconnection of the power supply to the power circuit is foreseen to
avoid an unexpected start.
Note 3: In circumstances with external influences (e.g. falling suspended loads), additional measures (e.g.
mechanical brakes) may be necessary to avoid hazards.
Note 4: The electronics and contactors are not suitable for protection against electrocution and additional insulation
measures may be necessary.
Rowan inverters that integrate the STO function have a specific connector for joining the inverter
to the safety device chosen to carry out the safety function of the system. For this description,
see chapter 4 CONNECTIONS FOR THE STO SAFETY FUNCTION on page 7.
The STO safety function of the Rowan inverters is certified by UL (Underwrite Laboratories) and
complies with the following standards with the following degrees of integrity and performance:
EN 61800-5-2 SIL Capability 3
EN ISO 13849-1 PL "e"

4CONNECTIONS FOR THE STO SAFETY FUNCTION
The inverters of the C350, C400 and C700 series, which integrate the STO safety function, have -
on the terminal box panel - a terminal dedicated to the connection to the safety device that will
activate the STO function.
The following describes the connection of the terminal only for the STO function, for all the other
connections refer to the "Installation and Use Manual" of the inverter you are using.
The STO terminal consists of an extractable three-way terminal, the central way is NOT
connected, the two external ways (STO1 and STO2) must be connected to the safety device that
must provide with a NC contact (normally closed) with a capacity of at least 1.1A at 15Vdc.
Opening this contact will activate the STO function.
Closing the contact between STO1 and STO2 guarantees power to the internal driver
section of the inverter (the section that turns on IGBT), its opening removes power
from the driver section and the inverter is no longer able to modulate an output
voltage (turning off the IGBT). When STO function is active, dangerous voltage is
present at the inverter power terminals (L1, L2, L3, U, V, W, F, F+, -).
Figure 3 shows a schematic diagram of how the STO function is obtained in Rowan inverters.

Rowan inverters with STO safety function leave the factory with terminals STO1 and STO2
bridged together to allow the inverter to operate even when the STO safety function is not used.
To use the STO safety function, remove the connection jumper between STO1 and STO2 and
connect the terminals to the safety device with section shielded bipolar cable of not less than
1mm2and a length of not more than 15m, the shielding must be connected to the ground. For an
example of connection, refer to fig.6 of the following paragraph. The NC contact of the safety
device must have a capacity of at least 1.1A at 15Vdc.

4.1 Example of connection to the security module
An example of how to connect the inverter to the safety system of a plant to implement an STO
safety function is shown below.
The safety system uses a safety module (e.g. Pizzato cod. CS AR-01), a safety device consisting
of a safety stop button with double contact hold-open device (e.g. Pizzato PE series) and a safety
device consisting of a double contact switch (e.g. Pizzato FD 9 series) for controlling a movable
guard.
With these devices and the following connection, the machine could reach safety level "SIL 3",
"PL e" with safety category "cat.4".
Figure 6 below shows the wiring diagram for the connections for the STO safety function, the
diagram is valid for the C350, C400 and C700 inverters.
Refer to the manuals/technical sheets of the individual modules and devices for connections not
regarding STO, power supplies, assembly instructions and any other information. For inverters,
refer to the Installation and User Manuals.

4.2 Latency and reset times of the STO function
The latency time of the STO function of the inverter is the time that elapses between the opening
of the safety contact and the actual interruption of the PWM modulation to the IGBTs of the
inverter, i.e. the shutdown of the IGBTs.
When the IGBT is switched off, dangerous voltage is still present on all power
terminals of the inverter!
In Rowan inverters, the latency time does not exceed 10ms for all power sizes.
Figure 7 shows a graphic representation showing the engine speed - as a function of time -
around the time when the STO safety function is activated.
Engine
speed
T0 time of activation of the STO function.
T1 The moment when the engine cannot generate torque.
T = (T - T0): latency time of the STO function.
Fig.7: graphic example of v(t) trend with STO request.
The reset time, i.e. the time elapsing between the reclosing of the STO safety contact and the
actual PWM modulation at the IGBTs, depends on the system with which the plant controls the
inverter and the functions active in the inverter (e.g. on-the-fly recovery).
The reclosing of the safety switch can guarantee - after a certain time - the PWM to the IGBTs if
the run commands (RUN) have remained active.
Refer to the "Installation and Use Manuals" of the inverters and the following paragraph for the
evaluation of the run-up times.
5POWER FAILURE DETECTION IN THE DRIVER SECTION
The C350, C400 and C700 series inverters implement a power failure detection system at the
inverter driver section; this interruption can also be achieved through a safety device or module.
This detection system cannot be part of the safety concept of the machine in which it is used, the
user can NOT consider it a fully-fledged system and useful for safety.
When the contact leading the power to the driver section is open, the inverter signals the event
with an alarm as follows:
-the FAULT led starts flashing;
-in C350 inverters, alarm number 106 is reported in the variable "6.27 ALARM";
-in C400/C700 inverters, the variable "2.1.50 INVERTER ALARM" shows the string STO OPEN;
-if the gear (RUN) was active before, it is now inhibited.

In any case, opening the contact brings to 1 the bit15 of STATUS OF PHYSICAL DIGITAL INPUTS
in the C400 and C700 inverters, and the bit15 of var.6.22 DIG.INPUT I1..8 in the C350 inverter;
closing the contact brings the bit15 to 0. The bit is readable in serial communication (with all
available fieldbuses), as well as variables 6.27 and 2.1.50.
