MORE PERFORMANCE FOR THE S-DIAS SAFETY SYSTEM
Programmable, flexible safety is a key component of intelligent machine design. With S-DIAS Safety from SIGMATEK, the user has a slim economic solution that meets the highest safety standards (SIL 3, PL e).
The SCP 211 Safety CPU now provides even more performance. It has four times the processing speed of its little sister, the SCP 111, as well as more memory for user programs (1 MB Flash, 500 kB SRAM) and remanent memory for parameter lists and variables. The 25 mm wide DIN rail module provides a total current of 1.6 A to power the S-DIAS Safety modules and is therewith, the right choice for diverse safety applications. New functions such as creating arrays, marker variables, constants in list forms and reloadable parameter lists simplify creating and handling safety applications.
The LASAL SAFETY Designer’s graphical editor makes developing safety-relevant applications easy and comfortable. In the library, more than 50 Safety function blocks based on PLCopen are available such as Emergency Stop, Two Hand Control and Guard Locking. For the SCP 211, new Safety function blocks for interpolation, conversion of data units and array processing have been added. The Safety program is created with all optional modules only once and can then be configured as desired. This means that there is one Safety program for all expansion stages of a machine.
The hardware of the modular, TÜV-certified S-DIAS Safety System always consists of a Safety CPU, which monitors or controls the application and safe I/O modules. Here, there are safe digital in- and outputs, analog inputs, relay outputs, as well as SSI absolute encoder inputs that can be flexibly combined. S-DIAS Safety is seamlessly integrated into the S-DIAS control system from SIGMATEK, but can also be implemented as a stand-alone solution.
