The Emerson SE3007 is a high-performance safety relay module designed for industrial safety applications, specifically engineered to monitor and control safety-critical functions in automated systems. It is widely used in machinery, manufacturing, and process industries to ensure compliance with global safety standards (e.g., EN ISO 13849-1, IEC 61508) and prevent accidents by enabling rapid shutdowns or protective actions when hazards are detected. Below is its detailed technical overview based on verified specifications and application data:
- Brand: Emerson
- Model: SE3007
- Product Type: Safety Relay Module (for industrial safety circuits)
- Safety Integrity Level (SIL): Compliant with SIL 3 (per IEC 61508) and Performance Level e (PL e) (per EN ISO 13849-1) – suitable for high-risk applications requiring maximum safety redundancy.
- Core Function: Monitors safety inputs (e.g., emergency stop buttons, light curtains, safety gates) and triggers safety outputs (e.g., machine shutdown, valve closure) when unsafe conditions are detected. Ensures failsafe operation with built-in redundancy and self-diagnostic features.
Safety Inputs:
- 4 normally closed (NC) safety inputs (compatible with emergency stop buttons, safety door switches, light curtains).
- Input voltage: 24 V DC ±15% (industrial standard).
- Input current: ≤5 mA per channel.
- Monitoring: Cross-circuit and short-circuit detection between inputs to prevent false signals.
Safety Outputs:
- 3 normally open (NO) safety relay outputs (for controlling contactors, valves, or emergency stops).
- Output rating: 250 V AC / 3 A (resistive load); 24 V DC / 3 A (resistive load).
- Relay type: Force-guided (positive-guided) relays – ensures outputs cannot remain in a dangerous state during internal faults (per EN 50205).
Auxiliary Outputs:
- 1 auxiliary relay output (for status indication or non-safety alarms).
- Rating: 250 V AC / 1 A; 24 V DC / 1 A.
- Power Supply: 24 V DC ±15% (1.2 W typical power consumption).
- Response Time: ≤15 ms (from input signal loss to output deactivation) – critical for stopping machinery quickly.
- Isolation: 2.5 kVrms between inputs, outputs, and power supply (per IEC 61131-2) – prevents electrical interference from affecting safety logic.
- Dimensions: 22.5 mm (W) × 105 mm (H) × 75 mm (D) [0.89” × 4.13” × 2.95”] – compact DIN rail-mounted design, saving cabinet space.
- Mounting: DIN rail (35 mm standard) – easy installation in control panels.
- Operating Temperature: -25°C to +70°C (-13°F to 158°F) – suitable for harsh industrial environments.
- Storage Temperature: -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to 185°F).
- Humidity: 5%–95% RH (non-condensing) – resistant to moisture in washdown or humid areas.
- Vibration Resistance: 10 g (10–500 Hz) per IEC 60068-2-6 – withstands machinery vibration.
- Protection Class: IP20 (front panel) – designed for enclosed control cabinets.
- Certifications:
- CE (EN ISO 13849-1, EN 61508, EN 50205) – meets European safety standards for machinery and process safety.
- UL 508S (industrial safety equipment) – compliant for North American markets.
- cULus (Canadian and U.S. safety certification).
- TÜV SÜD approval – verified compliance with global safety standards.
- High Safety Integrity: SIL 3 and PL e ratings ensure reliable operation in high-risk applications (e.g., robotic workcells, press machines, conveyor systems).
- Failsafe Design: Force-guided relays guarantee that outputs switch to a safe state (e.g., de-energized) if internal faults occur (e.g., coil failure), preventing hazardous machine operation.
- Comprehensive Diagnostics:
- Built-in self-test (BIST) function continuously monitors relay contacts, input circuits, and power supply – detects faults and triggers auxiliary output alarms.
- LED indicators: Power (green), safety circuit status (green), fault (red) – provide visual status for quick troubleshooting.
- Flexible Wiring: Accepts parallel connection of multiple safety devices (e.g., emergency stops, safety gates) on a single input channel, simplifying system design.
- Redundancy Support: Can be configured in redundant pairs (two SE3007 modules) for mission-critical systems – ensures safety function remains active if one module fails.
- Easy Integration: Compatible with standard industrial safety devices (no special wiring required) and integrates with PLCs/DCS via auxiliary outputs for status monitoring.
- Machine Safety: Monitors emergency stop buttons, safety light curtains, and interlock switches on robotic arms, packaging machines, and CNC equipment – triggers immediate shutdowns when hazards are detected.
- Process Safety: Controls emergency shutdown (ESD) valves in chemical plants or refineries – isolates hazardous materials if pressure/temperature limits are exceeded.
- Material Handling: Ensures conveyor systems or lift platforms stop when safety gates are opened or overloads are detected.
- Automotive Manufacturing: Protects workers near assembly line robots by monitoring perimeter safety barriers and emergency stops.
- Technical Manual: Emerson SE3007 Safety Relay Module Installation & Safety Manual (Document No. SE3007-UM-001) – available via Emerson’s official support portal, including wiring diagrams, safety circuit design guidelines, and fault troubleshooting.
- Safety Certification Data: Detailed compliance reports for EN ISO 13849-1 and IEC 61508 are provided with the module.
- Spare Parts: Replacement relays and terminal blocks are available via Emerson’s authorized distributors.
- Base Model: SE3007 (4 safety inputs, 3 safety outputs, 1 auxiliary output, standard version).
- Optional Accessories:
- DIN Rail Mounting Kit (SE3007-MT): For secure installation in non-standard enclosures.
- Terminal Cover (SE3007-TC): Prevents accidental contact with live terminals (enhances safety).
- Lead Time: Typically 2–3 weeks for standard orders; 1 week for emergency spares.
Note: Always consult Emerson’s safety application engineers to ensure the SE3007 is correctly configured for your specific safety requirements, including risk assessment and circuit validation per EN ISO 12100.
