As an alternative to the multiple safety relays that take up panel space, the compact Telemecanique Preventa XPSMC safety controller can perform various functions of up to 20 different safety relays, while providing real-time status and diagnostics of the machine control system.
“The Preventa safety controller provides users with a flexible solution for monitoring all the different tasks of safety applications in one device,” says David Collins, product staff specialist at the vendor. “The savings over conventional safety systems are significant: up to 80 percent in power consumption, 68 percent less panel space required and 75 percent fewer wire terminations.” The Preventa XPSMC is equipped with an extensive library of certified safety functions for applications that must conform to Category 4 of standard EN 954-1. Other key features include user-friendly configuration software, and detailed diagnostics that provide an in-depth overview of the status of inputs and outputs, identifying any faults and their causes.
