32-bit safety controller for mobile machines

For safety-related applications in mobile machines, ifm efector has released a powerful 32-bit safety controller which is suitable for complex and demanding control functions.

Featuring graded error handling, the unit has various response thresholds. The fast 32-bit safety controller has a safety switch off component to bring a plant into the safe state. Additionally, areas of a plant that are not hazardous can still be used.

The function of the inputs and outputs can be adapted to the respective application easily and precisely using the CoDeSys programming software. Two CAN safety interfaces are possible.

The R360 safety controller is a new development in a tried-and-tested housing. Even under extreme operating conditions, the company says its monitoring and protection functions are assured. The unit has been developed according to current standards and certified by TÜV.
