Maximum safety and excellent usability

A very fast reaction time of only 12 ms brings maximum safety to your application. As a result you can reduce the distance from the hazardous movement. The reaction time is printed on the front. That saves you time in the annual ESPE inspection. You can be spared the long-winded process of looking up technical details and application guidelines, because all the information relevant to users can be read directly from the device. The fact that the voltage to the light beam device is supplied directly via the evaluation device PNOZ c2 is an advantage when it comes to a fast, reliable installation

Safety relay PNOZ – The original!

With PNOZ c2 you are opting for a safety relay PNOZ – the original, and a synonym for safety relays. With PNOZ you get the optimum safety solution for each requirement – in the usual Pilz quality.
