Kat 4/PLe and MINOS - that´s how it works!

Official TUV document: MINOS - Application safety output up to Cat. 4 / PL e / SILCL 3

MINOS SL Application Note: One Safe Output to Cat. 4, PL e, SIL 3 - But how?

Technical Data:

• Touchscreen 7 inch (IP 66)
• Supply: DC 24 V; 0.7 A
• Connection as a master or slave to a PLC

Communication:

• PROFINET IO MASTER
• Modbus TCP/RTU Master/Slave
• EtherNet/IP Scanner

Programming:

• Via free software Codesys
• Codesys V3 SPS & Target Visu

These ultra compact safety relays with just 6.8 mm width have one goal:

Providing a modular, cost-effective safety solution which is reduced to the most significant points:

• 1 safe relay output, 1 auxilliary output
• Potential free separation of high loads
• Max. switching capacity 250V AC/DC at 6A
• Variants for numerous applications
• In certification up to PL e / Cat. 4 / SIL 3
• Standards for the process industry will be met

Available as of 2018.

MINOS - the new safety dimension

Experience the ultra slim modules of the MINOS SL-series. These utmost compact safety logic devices with a width of just 6.2 mm have one common object:

To provide a modular and cost efficient safety solution, which has been reduced to the essential:

• Wearless, safe semiconductor outlets
• High diagnostic by means of status and Error LED
• Extremely high modularity & cost efficiency
• Variants for several applications
• Up to PL e / Kat. 4 / SIL 3

The MINOS SL-series is under the Top 5 nominees of the Automation Awards 2017. Here you can read more about it (in german language only).

Detailed informations will be available on our booth at the sps ipc drives in Nuremberg - Hall 7, booth 7-191.

See how easy it is to connect one of our ultra small safety logic devices MINOS with a commercial safety sensor.

This means: MINOS is the optimal and most cost effective choice to connect diverse safety switches. E.g. MINOS SL2D or SL2E are suited for this purpose.

And all that combined with the high diagnostic via 4 status and 1 error LED´s.

Diverse applications of the MINOS SL are shown in the application examples.

TÜV Certificat SCB

All Non-Contact Safety Sensors ZCode Series are now certified according to UL 508 and CSA-C22.2 No. 14 - see UL-File E494027.

For further information of these products please see: Safety Sensor ZCode Series.

Quality is our priority.

Therfore our company H. ZANDER GmbH & Co. KG is successfully certified according to the new ISO 9001:2015 since 01.04.2017.

See the certificate here.

Zander extended the certifications for the Safety Logic Units. In addition to the currently existing type examinations according to ISO 13849-1, IEC 62061 as well as EN 50156-1 two new certifications has been added:

Firstly the superior standard IEC 61511 - Functional safety - Safety instrumented systems for the process industry sector and second the sector standard EN 746-2 Industrial thermoprocessing equipment - Part 2: Safety requirements for comustion and fuel handling systems.

Regarding the requirements of the final entire application, there are often great uncertainties which standards are necessary. See an industrial burner for example. Whether this product falls under the directive for machine components according to 746-2 incl. PL and SIL (ISO 13849-1, IEC 62061) or if it will be regarded as a component of a boiler process according to EN 50156-1 or IEC 61511 is often difficult to determine for the engineers.

As of now, Zander has an easy and cost efficient solution approach: certification of all above mentioned standards by the TüV Rheinland.

Fig 1: Relevant Standards for Process Technology

This means that the users have a proof in the form of a certificat, which documents the fullfilment of the normative standards.

Therfore less documentation is required, which also means, that the following safety components are certified for a wide range of final entire applications in different industries:
 

• Safety Coupling Relay SK3D
• Safety Relay SR3D
• Mini Safety Time Control Device SCB up to 99 s
• Mini Safety Time Control Device SCB up to 99 m
• Mini Safety Time Control Device SCB up to 99 h
• Safety, individual configurable Compact Controller TALOS^® up to 990 s
• Safety, individual configurable Compact Controller TALOS^® up to 990 m
• Safety, individual configurable Compact Controller TALOS^® up to 99 h
