Safety controller configured in software

摘要

Designed for medium-complexity machinery for which conventional electromechanical relays or microprocessor based electronic safety relays are unsuitable, and where the use of programmable safety systems would be excessive, the PNOZmulti is the latest launch from Pilz Automation Technology. The PNOZmulti is as simple to use as traditional PNOZ electromechanical relays, with drag-and-drop configuration software that needs no specialist programming skills. Furthermore, the modular nature of the controller means that you only have to purchase and install the required functionality, thereby saving both costs and cabinet space. Using the modules already available, customers can employ a PNOZrnulti controller for safety-related control systems with emergency stop switches, gate switches, limit switches, light curtains, safety mats and two-handed starts. More modules are planned for launch in the near future, such as for standstill/speed monitoring and for linking to a Profibus network.
