Norstat now offers the MZERO, a configurable stand-alone safety integrated controller capable of managing the safety functions of a single machine or an entire plant.
The ReeR MZERO is capable of producing full configuration capabilities at the cost of a standard safety relay thereby reducing the number of devices used, which in turn can speed up control panel construction while also saving wiring time and lowering overall costs. The MZERO can manage safety sensors and signal devices such as Light Curtains, E-Stops, Guard-Lock Switches, RFID Switches, Safety Mats and Edges as well as Magnetic Switches, Inductive Sensors and Two-Hand Controls.
The MZERO has 16 inputs, 4 OSSD pairs, 4 inputs for start/re-start interlock, EDM or single input devices and 4 status outputs. It has removable terminal blocks and offers either screw or clamp contacts while maintaining PLe Cat.4, SIL 3 and SIL CL 3. It runs off of 24 VDC, fastens via DIN rail fastening, and has an IP 20 protection rating
