Problem

  • Common safety controllers are only designed for high safety levels SIL 3 (according to IEC 61508) or PLe (according to EN ISO 13849).
  • High cost, space and energy requirements.
  • High cost and time requirements for recertification in case of adaptations.
  • This means that it cannot be used in applications with a lower total investment volume (e.g. crane systems).

Solution approach

  • Division of the safety-critical and non-critical components.
  • Use of the certified hardware safety module for various applications in different areas (logistics, automotive, industrial and medical).
  • Easier customization of the non-safety related components.
  • Connection to non-safety-related technologies by means of non-safety-related module.
  • Compact size with minimal cost.
