— to be able to connect several safety components in
series (up to PL e, cat. 4) and supervise them with only
one safety controller!
Vital is the heart of a solution which makes it possible to
install/connect many different types of safety device in
the same safety circuit and still achieve PL e according to
EN ISO 13849-1. The Vital module is based upon a dyna-
mic single-channel concept as opposed to conventional
dual-channel safety relays. Up to 30 dynamic sensors can
be connected directly in the safety circuit and be supervised
by only one Vital module.The Vital therefore replaces several
safety relays. Safety components with output contacts can be
connected to the Vital via low cost Tina adaptors.
The Vital also has automatically or manually supervised reset
selection, dual safety outputs, and an information output for
reset indication and status information for PLC´s.
— to supervise safety components!
Most safety components on the market can be connected
to the Vital module. Dynamic sensors enable safety PL e to
be achieved in a single-channel system. For example ABB
JokabSafety´s dynamic non-contact Eden sensor, Spot light
beam and emergency stops (via Tina adaptors) can be used.
Even mechanical switches can be connected to Vital with the
aid of ABB JokabSafety´s Tina adaptors.
— for easy installation and assembly of a safety system!
Vital is a small electronic safety controller that dynamically
supervises a number of safety components. Vital´s detachable
connector blocks simplify the connection, trouble-shooting
and exchange of modules. The Vital and other safety compo-
nents can be connected together using standard cables and
with cables having M12 connections.
