Mid-range Integrated Safety Controllers

May 3, 2010
Two new controllers are designed to provide machine builders and manufacturers with integrated safety, motion, discrete and drive control capabilities in a single controller for mid-range applications. 
The Allen-Bradley L43S and L45S Compact GuardLogix programmable automation controllers (PACs) extend capabilities previously available only in the vendor’s larger ControlLogix platform. These include diagnostics and information capabilities that help reduce nuisance shutdowns and prolonged restarts, as well as a single programming environment. Featuring a 1oo2 safety architecture, the Compact GuardLogix controllers are rated up to SIL 3 and PL e—the highest level of machine safety.Rockwell Automation Inc.www.rockwellautomation.com414.382.2000
