NX Integrated Safety Controllers

Omron’s NX-S safety controllers are fully SIL3 certified while offering one connection using Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE) protocol. This enables flexible configuration by mixing the safety units with standard NX I/O hardware. Hardware and safety circuits can be configured using the Sysmac Studio (Ver. 1.07).

Features

• Integrated safety into machine automation possible by connecting with the NX-series EtherCAT coupler
• The safety CPU unit controls up to 128 safety I/O units
• 2 or 4 points per safety output unit; 2-point safety output unit is characterized by large output breaking current of 2.0 A
• 4 or 8 points per safety input unit; 4-point safety input unit can be directly connected with OMRON non-contact switches and single-beam sensors
• The safety units can be freely allocated in any combination with standard NX I/O
• Safety programs can be standardized and reused efficiently by using POUs for design and operation
