Fail-Safe Motor Control

Using conventional safety relays for the fail-safe disconnection of motors stands for wiring effort and limited diagnostic functions. A manual combination of standard and safety functions also holds uncertainty for the user. SIMOCODE pro offers a new solution: With the fail-safe digital expansion modules for the motor management system, safety technology for the first time is being integrated into the motor control without additional effort, while enabling broad diagnostic functions.

In case of danger they allow for the fail-safe disconnection of a motor either with a local disconnection (e.g. EMERGENCY STOP) or by submitting the shutdown signal from a fail-safe controller via PROFIsafe. The effective functional safety standards are met.
