Weidmuller Industrial Safety Equipment
Weidmuller safety relays are used to keep people and machines safe by ensuring that only safe equipment is allowed to operate. Weidmuller safety relays are found in machine safety applications, industrial automation, and control panels where there is a need for monitoring and quick disconnect in case of an emergency. Weidmuller safety relays reduce risk, prevent accidents, and enable the safe operation of machines in a variety of industrial applications.
Weidmuller safety relays monitor for safety inputs including emergency stop buttons, safety gates and guard door switches, light curtains, and two hand control buttons. If an unsafe input is detected, the safety relay will drive the machine to a safe state by disconnecting power to the control system. This capability allows for fast acting responses to safety issues and provides consistent, repeatable safety results.
Weidmuller safety relays are designed to work in automation systems and are characterized by compact DIN rail mount designs, simple status indication, and easy setup and configuration. Weidmuller safety relay panel mount designs enable quick and simple integration into OEM equipment, production lines, and industrial control panels. Weidmuller safety relays are built to last and are designed for long term, reliable operation in a variety of challenging industrial environments.
