This Interface Module is not a point-of-operation guarding device, as defined by OSHA regulations. It is necessary to
install point-of-operation guarding devices, such as safety light curtains and/or hard guards, to protect personnel from hazardous
machinery. Failure to install point-of-operation guards on hazardous machinery can result in a dangerous condition which
could lead to serious injury or death.
WARNING . . .
Not a Point-of-Operation Guarding Device
• Interface Modules provide isolated safety output contacts for a primary safety device
• Model IM-T-9A features three normally open 6 amp redundant-output channels.
• Model IM-T-11A features two normally open redundant-output channels and one normally
• Normally closed outputs for connection to the primary safety device’s monitoring input.
• 24V dc operation
• 22.5 mm (0.9") DIN-rail-mountable housing
• Convenient plug-in terminal blocks
Interface Modules IM-T-9A and IM-T-11A (the Interface Modules) operate on 24V dc inputs
and provide isolated redundant output channels for interfacing dc safety controls (such as
safety light screens or other safety modules) to safety circuits. These modules can also be
used to switch low power capacity of safety controls with low current output rating (see hookup
figures and the output configuration specifications).
The outputs of the Interface Module will follow the action of the safety outputs from the primary
safety device which control it, within a 20 millisecond switching delay time. The Interface
Module’s normally open outputs each are rated for up to 250V ac/dc at up to 6 amps.
The Interface Module offers a series connection of normally closed contacts (labeled Y1-Y2
and Y3-Y4) for monitoring by the external device monitoring (EDM) function of the primary
safety device. These forced-guided (mechanically-linked) contacts allow the safety device to
detect failures of the Interface Module, and at a minimum, must be monitored in applications
requiring Control Reliability per OSHA/ANSI or Category 3 or 4 per ISO13849-1.

For higher risk applications, the design of the primary safety device must meet OSHA/ANSI control reliability requirements (U.S. applications) or ISO/IEC/ EN Category Performance Level and SIL requirements for European applications. IM-T-..A Modules must be used only with primary safety devices which have External Device Monitoring capability (see Figures 4 through 8 and the Warning Interfacing MPCEs on page 7). ...

Connection to the Machine To Be Controlled The hookup diagrams in Figures 5 through 9 show a generic connection of two safety output channels of the Interface Module to Machine Primary Control Elements MPCE1 and MPCE2. A Machine Primary Control Element is an electrically powered device, external to the Interface Module, which stops the machinery being controlled by immediately removing electrical power from the machine and (when necessary) by applying braking to dangerous motion.

Additionally, control of the arresting scheme may be hydraulic or pneumatic result, an MPCE may be one of several control types, including a wide variety of contactors and electromechanical valves. If your machine documentation leaves any doubt about the proper connection points for the Interface Module output contacts, do not make any connections. Contact the machine builder for clarification regarding connection to the MPCEs. Two-Channel Control (Figures and 7): Two-channel control allows the Primary Safety Device to detect an unsafe failure of the control wires. Two-channel control should be used whenever unsafe failure of the control wires cannot be eliminated. The outputs of the primary safety device must at minimum, comply with the requirements described on page 5. These outputs must be monitored for failure by the primary safety device ...
