Motion monitoring

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

The safe motion monitoring modules for the configurable control systems PNOZmulti 2 from Pilz Automation Technolog are designed to ensure the safe monitoring of drives, and now include safe stop SS1 and SS2.

These are said to make plant and machinery even safer and more productive. Expansion modules are available for safe monitoring of one axis or two axes.
The safe motion monitoring modules for PNOZmulti 2 are easily configured using the software tool PNOZmulti Configurator.

A new software feature is used for the first time on the motion monitoring modules: an independent module program (mIQ) is configured, which is executed on the module. Benefits include fine granular configuration of several monitoring areas, such as velocity or rotational speed, with local execution on the expansion module. Safety functions are implemented in accordance with EN 61800-5-2 for adjustable speed electrical power drive systems.
