Have many of you used this option before?
We are looking at an app where we will have 10x vsd's, but whilst the manual shows a connection example for a single drive, we have not been able to find for multiples.
Rule of thumb would suggest that a separate safety channel is used for each drive, but then this would add considerable cost, especially if more were required!
We could look at suitable force guided relays, which will reduce it slightly, but it does seem more intensive rather than the double-dump method on the line side, which then makes us ask, why use the cat3 option?
I don't want this to become a discussion on safety implementation, moreso common practice if a cat3 option like this is to be used.
