1.1 About this manual
This manual contains the information for a system configuration of
the EGP electric gripper with a safety control system for imple-
menting the safety functions SOS (safe operating stop) and STO
(safe torque shutdown).
This system description does not constitute a complete document-
ation. For each application, a risk assessment has to be prepared
and applicable standards must be identified and applied.
In addition to these instructions, the documents listed under Ap-
plicable documents [}4] are applicable.

1.3 Components for the system setup
NOTE
For monitoring of redundant sensor signals, SCHUNK recommends
inductive proximity switches IN 40.
The following components are required for the system setup:
• Electric gripper EGP
• 4 x sensors
– e.g. inductive proximity switches
IN 40/S-M8, SCHUNK Id-No. 0301474
• Sensor bracket (2x)
–SCHUNK Id-No. 9700901
• Spacer sleeve for adjusting the sensor position
–SCHUNK Id-No. 5509536
• Sensor distributor
• Safety control system
–e.g. PILZ PNOZmulti or LTI SMC1-Z10

3.2 Description
During the system setup, a monitoring level is created with a
safety control between the system's superordinate control and the
gripper.
As a result, the position of the gripper fingers can be monitored in-
dependently of the superordinate control and, if necessary, the
gripper can be disconnected from the supply voltage and thereby
placed to a safe state.
The monitoring level differentiates between two modes:
• Monitored operation
• Released operation
In monitored operation mode, the functions of the monitoring
level are active.
In released operation mode, the functions are not active and haz-
ards may arise. In released operation mode, the customer must
ensure that the plausibility of the sensor signals is monitored and
evaluated.
The monitoring level comprises two safety functions and the eval-
uation logic:
• Safe Operating Stop (SOS)
– Safe monitoring of the position of the gripper fingers
Cross-attached sensors monitor the position of the gripper
fingers.
• Safe Torque Off (STO)
– Safe deactivation path of the gripper
The gripper is deactivated by switching off the power supply.
• Evaluation logic
– The monitored positions are evaluated by the safety control.
If necessary, the control makes the decision to place the
gripper in safe state and maintains this state.

4 Functional description
4.1 Definition of the safe state of the gripper
The safe state of the gripper is a state in which no danger to per-
son or machine arises from the gripper.
For the system setup, this means that there are the following two
safe states depending on the position of the gripper fingers:
• Safe state1
–Position of the gripper fingers is defined
The gripper maintains its position and gripping force to avoid
losing a workpiece that it may be holding.
• Safe state2
–Position of the gripper fingers is not defined
To avoid crushing, the power to the gripper is disconnected.
The change from safe state1 to safe state2 is made as soon as the
position of the gripper fingers is undefined.
This is the case, for example, when a gripped workpiece is re-
moved by force application from the gripper during monitored op-
eration, no release or the logical release signal low or Emergency
Stop. If a workpiece is removed, the gripper fingers move until a
signal change is made to one of the sensors (overrun traverse). If
the configured gripping force is very low, it is possible that the
gripper fingers maintain the position without an overrun.
The switch from safe state2 to safe state 1 is is not allowed.
It is possible to exit safe state 1 by reenabling or confirming.
Exiting safe state 2 is only possible by solving and acknowledging
the existing fault and then reenabling. This prevents unwanted or
unexpected reactivation. Alternatively, agreeing and subsequent
confirmation can ensure that the gripper is powered until the con-
firmation button is released or cut off (panic function).

4.3 Superordinate control system
The superordinate control system can be run in safe on non-safe
mode. There are no special requirements for the superordinate
control system. It must be ensured that the connections are made
for safety technology comply with the requirements of
ENISO13849-1.
When using a safe superordinate control system, the sensor and
evaluation logic that must be executed safely can be implemented
in the superordinate control system. In this case, no additional
control system is needed.
It must be ensured that the safety connections comply with the
application-specific requirements of ENISO13849-1.
If an external relay is used, it may be necessary to use additional
signals for monitoring and safe state change. When using integ-
rated safe relays, this may be adopted by the safety control sys-
tem.
NOTE
In release mode, the superordinate control must check the plaus-
ibility of the redundant sensor signals provided by the safety con-
trol system. In release mode, the sensor signals are merely looped
through the safety control system.
