Extend the advantages of Panasonic PLCs with certified safety-related functions
|
|
FP-Safe controllers can be used to realize the safety-related functions required by the new Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC). The controllers achieve Safety Integrity Claim Limit 3 (SIL CL3) according to EN 62061, one of the harmonized standards under the new Machinery Directive.
The value of Panasonic?s safety solution lies in its comprehensive diagnostics. FP-Safe controllers and FP-series PLCs can be easily connected via RS232C, and the programming software FPWIN Pro contains a function block that reads diagnostic information from FP-Safe Controllers and transmits it to FP-series PLCs. Hence, customers not only know the execution status of an emergency stop, but also about which one was executed and where. Customers benefit from easier error detection, quicker maintenance and reduced machine down-time.
The FP-Safe controllers are freely configurable. The safety-related functions are predefined in the intuitive software tool ?FP-Safe Configurator?, which also visualizes the wiring of sensors and actuators, parameter settings for all safety-related components and signals, etc. Safe access control, program validation, and project verification mechanisms are implemented within the FP-Safe hardware and FP-Safe Configurator so that any unauthorized change is blocked and an error message issued.
