Description
The 2-channel NAMUR signal conditioner
MACX MCR-EX-SL-2NAM-T(-SP) has been designed for
intrinsically safe operation of proximity sensors (as per
EN 60947-5-6 (NAMUR)) as well as switch contacts, with
open circuit and resistance circuits, installed in hazardous
areas.
The input circuits are monitored for line faults such as wire
breaks and short circuits. Line fault detection (LFD) can be
activated and deactivated. Errors are indicated by a red
flashing LED (as per NAMUR NE 44) and the corresponding
transistor output is blocked. Error messages can also be
transmitted to the supply and error evaluation module via
the DIN rail connector.
The output circuits feature one passive transistor for each
channel for the transmission of the switching signal to the
control level. The switches make it possible to set the
direction separately for every channel (open or closed
circuit current behavior). The status of the respective
channel is signaled via a yellow LED.

Safe state
The "safe state" means that the output is in a nonconductive state, i.e., the transistor is blocking.
8.4
Response Times
Following a state change at the input, the output enters the
safe state in ≤ 0.2 ms.
8.5
Operating mode of the safety function
Operating mode according to IEC/EN 61508: "Low demand
mode".
Input
8.6
Permitted for safety-related applications:
– NAMUR sensor (according to EN 60947-5-6)
– Switch contact with resistance circuit (1 k serial and
10 k parallel (tolerance ±10%))
(Note: The resistance circuit regulates the behavior of a
NAMUR sensor)
1.
2.
Failure behavior and required response
The safe state is entered in the event that a line fault is
detected or the supply voltage fails (see Section 8.3).
The safe state is reached by removing the connection
terminals.
WARNING: Switch contacts without resistance
circuit are not permitted for safety-related
applications.
Output
The safety-related function at the output is dependent on the
position of the switches DIP1 (for channel 1) and DIP3 (for
channel 2).
I = Normal
In the event of a 0 signal (NAMUR sensor
operation high resistance, therefore lower current in
the input circuit), the output (transistor)
switches to the "non-conductive" state.
II = Inverse
In the event of a 1 signal at the input, the
operation output switches to the "non-conductive"
state.
8.2
Diagnostics function via the switches
DIP2/DIP4
For safety applications, line fault detection is enabled, i.e.,
the DIP2/DIP4 switches are in the "II" position.
WARNING: The "DIP2/DIP4 = I" switch position is
not permitted for safety-related applications.
When line fault detection is enabled, the red LED indicates
any faults that occur. If a line fault is detected, the output is
disabled ("non-conductive"). This behavior is not dependent
on the position of the DIP1 and DIP3 switches.

Installation and Startup
NOTE: Installation, operation, and maintenance
may only be carried out by qualified electricians.
During installation, also follow the installation notes, which
pertain to delivery of the device. (PACKB. MACX MCR-EXSL-2NAM-T(-SP), MNR 9040239). They can also be
downloaded at phoenixcontact.net/products.
• Configure the device according to its safety
requirements based on the truth table on page 12.
Observe the non-approved switch positions for safetyrelated applications.
• Connect the NAMUR signal conditioner according to
the installation manual.
• Check the functionality of the NAMUR signal
conditioner with connected sensor or switch contacts
with resistance circuit for correct function.
• Start up the safety circuit and check that it operates
correctly.
8.10
Notes on operation
During normal operation, the green (PWR) LED is always
on. The yellow LEDs (OUT1/OUT2) indicate the switch
condition of the output transistor. The red LEDs indicate if
there is a line fault when the line fault detection is enabled.
The safe state is entered in the event that a line fault is
detected or the supply voltage fails.
8.11
Startup and restart
Startup or restart of the device
Behavior: The output enters the state without oscillation
(according to the truth table on page 12). A reset is not required.
The line fault is removed.
Behavior: The user has to ensure that a defined state is entered using the truth table on page 12. The device is restarted in the same way as during initial startup. The device
then behaves as described under „Startup or restart of the
device“.

Recurring checks
Check the function of the entire safety circuit according
to IEC/EN 61508 and EN 61511. The intervals for
checking are specified by the intervals of each
individual device within the safety circuit.
It is the operator's responsibility to select the type of
checks and the checking intervals in the specified time
period.
Checking must be carried out in such a way that the
correct function of the safety equipment in conjunction
with all components can be verified.
Possible procedure for recurring checks for
discovering dangerous and undetected device failures
1.
2.
3.
4.
Apply an appropriate signal at the input of the NAMUR
signal conditioner in order to obtain the non-conductive
state at the output. Check whether the output is nonconductive.
Check the conducting status in the same manner.
Restore the safety circuit to full functionality.
Resume normal operation.
With this test around 99% of the possible "du" ("dangerous
undetected") errors in the NAMUR signal conditioner are
discovered.
If the function test result is negative, the device must be
taken out of operation and the process put into a safe state
by other measures.
What happens when a line fault is detected and what
must the user do?
Behavior: The fault is indicated by the red LED and the output enters the "non-conductive" state regardless of the input
signal and the operating mode (normal or inverse mode).
The user has to eliminate the line fault (short circuit or break
in the sensor cable).
The device output is not blocked when fault detection is triggered (no lock or reset). Undefined line states that occur
during repairs can switch the output. The user must prevent
this from happening by disconnecting the supply voltage or
removing the connection terminals.
Other options that have the same result and do not present
an additional hazard are also permitted.
