SIRIUS 3SK1 Safety Relays
Quickly and easily achieving a safe and productive system
siemens.com/safety-relays
With the SIRIUS 3SK1 safety relays every simple safety application can be optimally implemented, both technically and
economically, whether it is EMERGENCY STOP, two-hand operation consoles, light arrays, laser scanners or protection of
persons at presses and punching machines. The new safety relays comply with the latest safety standards and can be
simply and economically used to achieve a safe and productive system quickly, with many advantages:

Why safety of machinery?
In Europe, machine manufacturers (product safety) and machine owners (system safety) are required by law to
ensure the safety of people and the environment.
What is safety? Why is safety of machinery so important according to
the latest safety standards?
Safety defines a state in which the risk of damage is
reduced to a tolerable level, or which can be regarded as Avoidance of costs by avoiding damage
risk-free. Functional safety refers to the protection of Possible cost traps:
people, machines and the environment. ◾◾ Production loss/machine downtime during repair
The objective of safety systems is to reduce the risk for ◾◾ Replacement/repair of damaged machines

A safety function describes the reaction of a machine/plant ◾◾ Legal certainty

◾◾ Fewer industrial accidents and associated cost savings

The following safety-oriented functions are available:
◾◾ Monitoring the safety functions of the sensors
◾◾ Monitoring the sensor leads
◾◾ Monitoring correct functioning of safety relays
◾◾ Monitoring the actuators in the switched-off circuit
◾◾ Safety-oriented disconnection when hazards arise
Any machinery manufacturer is obliged to perform a
risk assessment to identify all the hazards associated SIRIUS 3SK1 safety relays comply to the most strin-
