The Sentry safety relays are powerful and easy to use safety relays, suitable for all common types of safety applications.
The Sentry series contains basic models for simple applications and easy output expansion, as well as highly flexible models with extremely accurate timer functions.
Sentry safety relays are used in both simple and more advanced safety solutions when safety devices need to be monitored according to the requirements of functional safety standards.
Pressure sensitive devices detects when a pressure is being applied to them. For example when a person is being hit by the safety edge/bumper or is standing on the safety mat.
Safety edges and bumpers are used on moving doors or machine parts as protection against crushing injuries. Bumpers are used when longer stop times are needed. Safety mats are mainly used for area protection around dangerous machines.
The Pluto concept enables simple communication, programming and changes to the system. Pluto reduces installation time in many ways. For example, its safe bus simplifies the connection between cabinets in accordance with PL e/SIL3 and the AS-i models reduce cabling to a minimum while eliminating most risks of incorrect connection.
The programming software combines TÜV approved function blocks and ladder logic, and is very easy to use. Furthermore, up to 32 Pluto units can exchange data without having to configure or program the communication.
The Pluto systems consist of different types of Pluto Safety PLCs for all kinds of machine safety application, gateways for communication with other control systems and encoders for safe position determination of machine movements.
Pluto is a cost effective, powerful and compact safety PLC for all machine safety applications. Most safety devices on the market can be connected directly to Pluto and multiple safety sensors can be connected to a single input and still achieve the highest safety level. Programming is done easily in the accompanying software Pluto Manager.
Pluto is available in different models; simple models for smaller systems and models with bus communication for lager systems. Some of our Pluto models are adapted for AS-i . Models with analogue inputs are available as well.

With the use of a Gateway device, Pluto can communicate with other control systems and thereby form a part of a larger network. The unit has a common interface with Pluto, i.e. the same cabling and the Pluto Manager software can be used for servicing and where necessary programming. There are different Gateway models available for different field buses.

We offer a range of accessories for Pluto Safety-PLC such as cables, connectors, function blocks and identifier circuits (IDFIX).
IDFIX
IDFIX is an identification circuit that is unique to each device on the Pluto bus. It includes an identification code and makes it possible to distribute a PLC program in the network. There are four different versions: R, RW, DATA and PROG. In addition to the identification code, DATA may also include safety codes from the AS-i nodes in an AS-i system. PROG includes the current PLC program and is used with single-Pluto for program distribution.
We offer safety relays for all kinds of safety devices. Our safety relays have great flexibility and a wide range of input options. The relays are small and compact with an excellent reliability and safety level.
When several safety devices should control the same output, it is quite common to connect them in series. But to reach PL e, serial connection is not possible and each device should have its own safety relay. Vital offers the capability to exclusively control smaller machine safety systems that would otherwise have required a programmable controller or multiple safety relays. With the Vital safety controller, up to 30 safety devices can be connected in series to one Vital and still reach PL e.

The RT series consists of universal relays that have the most common functions used in safety situations. These safety relays can supervise both your safety devices and the internal safety of your machinery. In addition you can select the safety level required for each installation.
The BT series consist of safety relays designed to connect safety devices, such as emergency stops, directly in the voltage supply circuit to the relay. Despite a compact width of 22.5 mm the relays are very powerful. These relays can also be used as expansion relays for Pluto to increase the number of outputs.
The JSB series consist of specialized safety relays for e.g. two hand devices with dual channel synchronization.
Main benefits
By connecting expansion relays from the E series to a safety relay it is easy to increase the number of safe outputs. This means that an unlimited number of dangerous machine operations and functions can be stopped from one safety relay.
The JSR series are used for expanding the outputs of safety relays. Stop signals can be delayed and outputs are also provided for function indication.
The BT series consist of safety relays designed to connect safety devices, such as emergency stops, directly in the voltage supply circuit to the relay. These relays can also be used as expansion relays for Pluto to increase the number of outputs.

GKey is a robust safety lock with a die cast housing for hinged and sliding doors. GKey offers an interlocking function reaching PL e/SIL 3 with high level coding. Power is needed to unlock GKey which makes GKey a safety lock.
GKey is fitted with an rear escape release button, manual unlocking (auxiliary release) and offers four positions to integrate 22 mm pilot devices. By integrating the pilot devices into the switch housing, the number of external boxes for emergency stops, push buttons and selectors are reduced together with the cables and mounting brackets they would require. This results in a simplified installation, as well as less space used.
The simple construction with a sliding handle directly linked to the key and bolt - suitable both for hinged and sliding doors - minimizes the number of moving parts and the risk of mechanical problems.

Safeball consists of a spherical ball containing two embedded pushbutton switches, one on each side of the ball. To be able to start and operate a machine both buttons must be activated. The risk of unintentional activation is thereby minimized and the device is simple and ergonomic to use.
Safeball can be utilised for either one-hand or two-hand applications. For a two-hand control device the operator needs to have a Safeball for each hand to be able to operate a machine. If one or more pushbuttons are released a stop signal is given to the machine.

Three-position devices (or hold-to-run devices) can be used for troubleshooting, programming and test running in situations where no other protection is available or feasible. With a three-position device the operator can either press harder in an emergency or release the device to stop the machine.
Main benefits
A foot-operated safety switch is used when the operator needs to start and stop a machine in a safe way while both his hands are busy, holding a work piece for example.
Main benefits
A two-hand device can be used when it is necessary to ensure that the operator is outside and must be prevented from reaching into the hazardous area. The JSTD25 replaces the traditional two-hand device. With a JSTD25 two-hand control station you have a prepared two-hand unit that is easy to install, while utilising the good ergonomics of the Safeball.
