B&R Industrial Automation: Safety Controller for Profinet Networks

This expands Smart Safe Reaction technology to Profinet automation applications.
June 4, 2012

The SafeLOGIC safety controller is now available for Profinet networks, allowing the company's Smart Safe Reaction product set to work with that system. The application on the Profinet master CPU has full access to the signals in the network, regardless of whether standard or safety-related channels are affected. The controller also uses openSAFETY to monitor the system and shut it down if a safety requirement is not met. A wide range of proven functions from the Smart Safe Reaction portfolio is available for implementation. This includes, for example, PLCopen-compliant and TÜV-certified function blocks, secure digital and analog input signals, safe temperature signal detection, and more. The SafeLOGIC controller in this network can also handle signals from openSAFETY components such as light curtains, laser scanners and variable frequency drives from other manufacturers.
