KEB offers a complete system that is compliant with safety standards IEC 61508 SIL 3 and DIN EN ISO 13849-1 Ple. The system includes the C6 Safety PLC, Safety I/O modules and programming software. These modules have a double-channel design and can be programmed through COMBIVIS studio 6, which streamlines the development and approval processes. The Safety PLC is a Fail Safe over EtherCAT (FSoE) master that works in conjunction with the machine PLC to execute and monitor safety functions. The Safety PLC can connect with other FSoE slave modules like Safety I/O and servo drives that have Safe Motion functionality. Each FSoE slave device has four safe inputs, two safe outputs and four OSSD outputs. A single FSoE master can control up to 65,535 slave devices.
