Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between manual and automatic reset modes?
A1: Manual reset requires a physical button press after a fault, ensuring operator intervention. Automatic reset resumes operation once the fault is cleared.

Q2: Can the TSXP5Y5500M be used with safety light curtains?
A2: Yes, it supports dual-channel safety devices like light curtains when wired correctly.

Q3: What is the maximum cable length for inputs?
A3: Recommended max length is 100m (shielded cable) to avoid signal degradation.

Q4: Is this relay suitable for high-vibration environments?
A4: Yes, its rugged design ensures stable operation in industrial settings with vibrations.

Q5: Can I connect multiple safety relays in series?
A5: Yes, but ensure the total load does not exceed relay ratings and safety standards are maintained.

Q6: What is the expected lifespan of the contacts?
A6: Under normal conditions, the contacts last 100,000+ cycles at rated load.
