The new CES-CB expands the range of EUCHNER evaluation units CES-AZ by a configurable version. It was specially developed for protecting small and medium-sized machines and installations.
It combines all of the advantages of existing evaluation units, such as the combination of transponder technology with a safety relay in a single housing and the option of connecting four read heads from the series CES, CEM, CET and CKS. The unit includes 25 configurations with different logic functions as standard, each of which can be expanded by ten using a separate memory card. It is also possible to link several CES-CB units to form safety zones.
The CES-CB is equipped with three safe outputs, four safe inputs, four read-head inputs and six monitoring outputs. In addition to the wide range of read heads, it is also possible to connect numerous safety devices, such as emergency stop devices, enabling switches, electromechanical and transponder-coded safety switches, and safety curtains, to name just a few. Outputs can be switched with a delay and individually, depending on the settings made. All inputs and outputs are continuously monitored for short circuits and other problems.
The CES-CB is simple to operate thanks to its easily legible and illuminated display and a pushbutton rotary switch. No matter whether the status of individual devices is to be displayed or diagnostic data are to be retrieved, the menu structure is simple and intuitively directs the user to the right place. The display itself is self-explanatory and complies with commonly used abbreviations.
The CES-CB offers utmost safety. Depending on the selected configuration and the connected read heads and other devices, it is possible to achieve PL e in accordance with the EN ISO 13849 standard. Additionally, the CES-CB already meets the requirements from EN ISO 14119.
EUCHNER – More than safety.
