The new SafeCIS3 controller from CEDES is incredibly compact. SafeCIS3 fulfills safety category 4 in accordance with EN 954 and SIL3 in accordance with EN 61508, and is thus qualified for applications requiring the highest safety certifications.
The SafeCIS3 controller is ideally coupled with the world’s smallest category 4 safety light curtain, the Safe400 from CEDES. The extremely small controller and light curtain combination enable machine safeguarding even in applications where space is particularly limited.
Using an optical interface, the SafeCIS3 safety controller can be adjusted very quickly for the necessary safety and control requirements e.g. EDM monitoring, muting or stroke function.
The controller is not just limited to the monitoring of a protection area. Other safety components can also be connected and monitored, such as an additional emergency stop button for example. The SafeCIS3 comes with PNP outputs as standard. If the application demands the use of a relay, this can be additionally connected as a module and monitored through the EDM inputs (External Device Monitoring). Di-verse relay or Bus extension modules enable a direct inte-gration into the most varying types of safety control.
