The EP2918-0032 TwinSAFE component provides safe digital outputs in a module with IP67 protection (eight outputs for 24 V DC actuators up to 2 A). The signals are connected via M12 screw connectors. The outputs are controlled by a TwinSAFE Logic-capable component via FSoE. The EP2918-0032 has safety parameters to specifically adapt the functionality to the respective safety requirements (e.g. testing of the individual channels).

The safety parameters are not stored directly on the component, but are transmitted via a TwinSAFE Logic-capable component when the safety application is started. This simplifies service procedures, because the component can simply be replaced. The safety-relevant parameters are transferred to the new component when the safety application is restarted.

A further highlight is the integration of the functionality of the EL6910 TwinSAFE Logic. The EP2918-0032 can also be used as a safety controller. Thus, for example, the output signals can be prepared directly before they are actually output. The range of functions corresponds to that of the EL6910. The only difference at this point is the limitation of the number of possible safe connections to 128. Apart from that, all the advantages of the new generation of safety controllers can be used (see EL6910 customizing, incremental download, analog value processing, etc.).

 

Special features EP2918-0032:

  • 8 safe outputs
  • integrated TwinSAFE Logic (functionality similar to the EL6910)
  • up to 128 safe connections
  • fine granular configuration of the test pulses of the individual channels
  • Standard outputs can be activated with integrated ANDing with a safe output signal.

 

For applications without integrated TwinSAFE Logic, the EP2918-2232 can be used.

 

Special features EP2918-2232:

  • 8 safe outputs
  • fine granular configuration of the test pulses of the individual channels
  • Standard outputs can be activated with integrated ANDing with a safe output signal.
  • TwinSAFE Logic not integrated
