AS-i Safety Monitor for 2 AS-i circuits
Safety
The device also assumes the mandatory E-STOP function (Stop Category 0 or 1)
for all non-manually operated machines, dynamic monitoring of the restart func-
tion and the protection monitoring function.
Examples for use of the AS-I Safety Monitor:
The device is used economically in machines and equipment in which the stand-
ard AS-I bus is the local bus. Using the Safety Monitor as a bus component al-
lows already existing AS-I bus configurations to be easily expanded, and safety
components having the corresponding AS-i Safety at Work interface can be in-
serted without difficulty. If there is no AS-I Safety at Work interface on the safety
component, so-called coupling modules can be used to establish the connection.
Existing AS-I masters and AS-I power supplies can be used as well.
There are no industry-specific restrictions. Some of the key applications are listed
below:
• Machine tools
• Expanded machining centers with multiple control elements and safety sen-
sors for wood and metal processing
• Printing and paper processing machines, trimming machines
• Packaging machinery, both stand-alone and as systems
• Food and beverage machinery
• Workpiece and bulk material conveying systems
• Rubber and plastics industry processing machinery
• Automatic assembly and handling equipment
