You can never be too safe

摘要

To conform to all the latest safety standards (SIL3, IEC 61508, PLe under ISO 13849-1 and EN 574 type ⅢC), controls company, ifm electronic, has introduced a new safety relay. The new G1502S works with all of ifm's fail safe inductive sensors, but can also be used in a variety of other ways. It performs monitoring tasks in safety applications using different types of electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE), so the user doesn't need a special type of relay for light curtains, e-stops or two hand controls. The latter can be two hand controls to EN 574 type IIIC employing electronic sensors or mechanical switches.
