Safety module/system VitalArt. no.: 3858760
Application areas: Emergency stop, light curtain, non-touch sensor (EDEN), gate switches, light beam, hatch breaker, contact mat, contact list, all in the same security circuit.
Security module, Vital, only 22.5 mm wide, is the heart of a concept that means that in one and the same safety circuit one can easily install one or several different security components and still achieve safety category 4 according to EN 954-1. Vital is based on a dynamic single channel concept, unlike conventional 2-channel safety relays. Up to 30 dynamic transducers can be installed directly into the safety circuit that is monitored by just one Vital module. Mechanical sensors with connectors can also be linked in and get dynamic function with the help of adaptation unit Tina. Vital has automatic or manual monitored reset, two safety outputs and information output that is both used for recovery indication and for information to the PLC. Test input for monitoring of, for example, contactors, relays and motors can easily be connected up. The relay has removable terminal blocks.
