Schneider Electric Safety PLCs
Schneider Electric Safety PLCs are designed to implement the control portion of functional safety in industrial machinery and automated equipment. These safety controllers monitor safety devices, execute certified safety logic, and manage safety-related outputs to help prevent or mitigate hazardous situations. They are commonly used in applications where compliance with international safety standards such as IEC 62061, ISO 13849-1, and IEC 61508 is required.
By integrating safety and standard control within a single architecture, Schneider Electric Safety PLCs provide flexibility and efficient system design. Safety devices such as emergency stop buttons, safety light curtains, safety switches, encoders, and other safety-rated components can be connected directly to the controller. This integration enables fast detection of dangerous conditions while maintaining consistent machine and process control performance.
Schneider Electric Safety PLCs support the development of flexible and scalable safety architectures without compromising operational efficiency. Their ability to combine safety and automation functions helps machine builders and system designers meet regulatory requirements while maintaining productivity and system reliability across a wide range of industrial applications.
