The new safety relay PNOZ s50 from Pilz can safely control two powerful brakes simultaneously without the use of contacts. As such it provides the required level of safety, particularly in the field of vertical axes: on loading and unloading gantries, machine tools, lifting devices and in stage technology, for example, a suspended load’s own weight may be enough to allow the axis to fall unintentionally.
The safety relay PNOZ s50 with emergency stop function is designed to control holding brakes or safety brakes in the 24/48 Volt DC range on vertical axes up to PL e of EN ISO 13849- 1 or SIL CL 3 of EN/IEC 62061. It offers a high level of safety due to fast shutdown of the power circuits.
