Introduction
Safety technology is of central importance in industrial automation and machine building. If you
want to reduce risks and avoid dangers for people and environment, you need solutions which
satisfy stringent requirements and statutory specifications. The safety modules of the RSTi-EP system
have key features such as emergency-stop circuits and wire-breakage or short-circuit detection.
They meet all SIL 3 requirements according to IEC 62061 and EN ISO 13849-1, category 4, PL e, and
support the safe operation of your system.
By safely shutting down the downstream output modules, the safety modules attain maximum
safety with optimum control. All input sensors are independently supplied via separate voltage paths
and report the current machine status to the control unit. Restarting is either carried out in manual
mode or using the autostart function. In addition, GE safety modules reduce maintenance and
service times and improve response times in case of emergency – thanks to a concept of maximum
transparency, for example, using OSSD outputs.
