Short circuit protection of outputs
OSSD outputs: fraud and failure detection
Outputs (OSSD) :A
The outputs (OSSD) of the XORF-SA2 product have been designed to detect any failure:
- a short circuit between OUT1 and OUT2
- a ground or 0V connection between OUT1 or OUT2
or any fraud :
- a short-circuit between IN1 and OUT1 or OUT2
- a short-circuit between IN2 and OUT1 or OUT2
- a setting at positive potential of OUT1 or OUT2
Pulses are added to the outputs to perform the diagnostic functions. The pulse duration and period do not affect the control of inductive loads. If an indicator is controlled by one of the outputs OUT1 or OUT2, a slight flickering may be visible depending on the indicator technology used.

FAQ's of XORF-SA2 - RFID SAFETY SWITCH FOR ROLLING STOCK, ON-BOARD EQUIPMENT:
Q: How does the XORF-SA2 RFID Safety Switch enhance safety on rolling stock?
A: The XORF-SA2 employs RFID-encoded actuators for non-contact sensing, which ensures that safety mechanisms are triggered only by genuine actuators. This minimizes accidental or unauthorized activation and provides functional safety up to PLe/Cat.4, making it highly effective for safety-critical applications like railway doors and emergency exits.
Q: What are the typical applications for the XORF-SA2 switch?
A: The switch is primarily used in railway settings, including rolling stock door safety interlocks, emergency exit monitoring, and onboard automation systems. Its robust design and compact size make it suitable for both retrofit and new installations on trains and related equipment.
Q: When should the XORF-SA2 RFID Safety Switch be chosen over traditional mechanical switches?
A: Opt for the XORF-SA2 when your application requires long mechanical life, resistance to misalignment, improved tamper resistance, and higher safety standards. Its non-contact operation is ideal where vibration, shock, and harsh environments could degrade mechanical switches.
Q: Where can distributors, exporters, and suppliers obtain the XORF-SA2 switches in France?
A: Distributors, exporters, importers, suppliers, and traders based in France can acquire the XORF-SA2 through authorized distributors specializing in railway safety and automation components, ensuring compliance with European industry standards.
Q: What is the installation process for the XORF-SA2?
A: The XORF-SA2 can be mounted using standard screws. It accommodates either a pre-wired cable or an M12 connector for electrical connection, making installation straightforward. LED indicators assist in setup and troubleshooting by showing power and switch status.
Q: How do operators benefit from using an RFID-encoded actuator in safety switches?
A: RFID encoding ensures only the correct actuator can activate the switch, drastically reducing the possibility of bypassing safety. This gives operators increased security, minimizes risk, and ensures compliance with stringent railway safety standards.
Q: What maintenance is required for the XORF-SA2 safety switch?
A: Due to its non-contact operation and rugged design, routine maintenance is minimal. Regular visual checks of the LED indicators and connection integrity are recommended to ensure ongoing optimal performance.
