PSSU Safety Controllers (Safety Interface Modules)
The PSSU series of safety controllers can be used as safety devices for high-risk automation and machine control
applications. They provide the highest level of safety offered by Tapeswitch, exceeding the requirements of safety
category 3 as defined by EN-954-1f, and meeting or exceeding the safety content of the applicable OSHA, ANSI, and
RIA Standards for safety interface modules..
PSSU safety controllers have redundant safety output relays, are self-monitoring, and are rated Control Reliable, which
means that any fault in the safety-critical components will be detected and the machine will be rendered inoperative
until the fault is corrected.
These safety controllers are designed to be used with Tapeswitch low-voltage sensors such as ribbon switches, safety
mats, sensing edges, or sensing bumpers. PSSU safety interface modules are available in wall-mounted and DIN rail-
mounted versions. Other options include 24 Vdc or 110/220 Vac operation and choice of manual or auto reset.

  • Page 1 PSSU Safety Controllers (Safety Interface Modules) The PSSU series of safety controllers can be used as safety devices for high-risk automation and machine control applications. They provide the highest level of safety offered by Tapeswitch, exceeding the requirements of safety category 3 as defined by EN-954-1f, and meeting or exceeding the safety content of the applicable OSHA, ANSI, and RIA Standards for safety interface modules..
  • Page 2 The output contacts of the safety relays are only closed when the output relays are energized. When the sensor(s) is PSSU control units are designed to be used with Tapeswitch actuated, the 24 Vdc power supply to the output relays is pressure-sensitive sensors, such as ribbon switches, sensing shorted out causing them to de-energize.
