Adjustable safety I/O for a control network that is already existing can be applied due to SafetyBridge. Due to the distributed safety logic is not only feasible to customize your safety in respect to your individual usage, but also to adjust it to your budget.
Costly implemented safety processors that are installed on the PLC can be replaced with our technology.
Once the process of programming and startup has been done, the PLC that is non-safe functions as a transfer medium. In this regard I/O status and immediate diagnostics are obtainable from any module of SafetyBridge on the network.
Benefits of SafetyBridge technology
The technology replaces the need for a safety controller with a higher-level
- SafetyBridge technology enables an affordable solution for the usage of safety controllers
- Standard usage and safety can be segregated clearly
Allocated
- Functional safety can be achieved by less wiring effort
- Flexibility as well as cost-efficiency are enabled by safety pointers that are recorded and output once it is required
Independent of control
- It is indifferent which controller is used, the concept of safety can be kept without individual adaptions
Independent of network
- Even with no changes of the safety concept, an adaptable usage in diverse networks is feasible
- Safety-related pointers can also be transmitted wirelessly
- With regard to the bus systems that are used, there is a total openness
