Safety controllers and relays Regardless of whether you would like to integrate safety sensors, switches or command devices in the safety circuit of the machine control: the MSI safety controllers and safety relays ensure efficient integration of all safety devices. Safety controllers For small- to medium-size machines, compact safety controls are increasingly being used for monitoring the safety circuit. They simultaneously evaluate multiple safety sensors and can easily be adapted to the respective requirements by means of their configurable safety functions. With their simple commissioning,...

Selection guide Various requirements are to be taken into account when selecting the appropriate evaluation unit. Classic safety relays offer the simplest and most economical solution when using a small number of sensors. As the number of safety sensors increases and for more complex safety functions, the strengths of the safety controllers become apparent: they offer space and cost advantages and can be flexibly adapted to various requirements through their configurable safety functions. Number of safety sensors in the application Configuration and linking of safety functions Fieldbus diagnosis...

Requirement: Multiple safety sensors must be integrated into the machine or system control. Functions such as a time delay for releasing a locking device or signal connections are also to be configured. Safe monitoring of presses Requirement: The specific requirements on the safety of presses defined mechanical and hydraulic presses in the EN ISO 16092 standards. The implementation of these requirements and the integration in the press operating sequence are to be supported and simplified by the configuration tool. Cyclic operation Solution: The basic module of the MSI 400 expandable safety control...

Evaluation of individual safety sensors Requirement: For correct execution of the safety function, safety sensors must be integrated into the machine circuit using safe control components in accordance with the requirements defined in ISO 13849-1. Evaluation of two safety sensors with one safety relay Solution: With the reliable MSI safety relays, individual safety sensors can be integrated quickly and easily into the safety circuit of machines and systems. Depending on the model, the relays are tailored to specific applications or can be used universally. Requirement: If two safety sensors act...

You decide which model best suits your task The safety controllers of the MSI 400 series provide efficient solutions for integrating multiple safety sensors in machines and systems. The compact design and the integrated Ethernet interface save space in the switch cabinet. Due to the high number of inputs, many standard tasks can be solved already with the MSI 410 base module. In addition, the optional extension modules allow you to adapt the number of inputs and outputs flexibly to your specific requirements. J1 Inputs _ (■4 Outputs Inputs/outputs, configurable Interfaces USB mini USB mini, USB...

Perfect start – modularly expandable Even the MSI 410 entry-level model features 20 safe inputs and 4 safe outputs, thereby offering the perfect starting point for standard applications. If necessary, all MSI 400 base modules can be expanded with the I/O extension modules to up to 116 safe inputs and 56 safe outputs. Available at each output of the system is 4 A of wear-free switching power. This allows e.g. valves to be actuated directly and makes additional relays unnecessary. Integrated gateways The MSI 400 safety controls can be integrated easily into industrial networks. With a width of...

Always quickly connected The removable program memory in SD card format, which can be accessed from the front side, provides plenty of space for application programs and comments. This simplifies project handling and reduces the time required for commissioning, duplication and servicing. The cover fastened to the control protects the memory from unintended removal. Optical function indicator via LEDs Integrated USB and Ethernet interfaces enable flexible access to the system. As a result, status and diagnostic information is available quickly during configuration and operation. Extensive function...

Efficient programming is this easy With the graphical user interface of the MSI.designer software, all MSI devices can be programmed very quickly. Reach your goal quickly with simple configuration With the new MSI.designer configuration tool, you can create projects for the MSI safety controls easily and efficiently. The license-free software supports you during the creation, testing and documentation of projects. For logic programming, an extensive library of certified function blocks is available. These can be arbitrarily arranged on freely definable logic pages by means of drag & drop. In...
