Safety solutions with system: Extension of AS-i safety program
The field bus standard AS-i can have not only non-secure but also secure switches, sensors and solenoid interlocks simply and cost effectively wired to it. Connection to the AS-i safety network provides many advantages to users of safety switchgear: fast installation and commissioning, comprehensive diagnosis functions and a high level of flexibility when adapting the safety function to the application.
Now Schmersal is expanding its AS-i Safety Program: The safety sensor RSS260, solenoid interlock AZM300 as well as safety light curtains and light grids SLC/SLG440 are now also available with integrated AS-i safety-at-work interlock.
