The safe I/O module combines automation and safety engineering using IO-Link so a machine can be safeguarded in the same system because IO-Link provides both sensor/actuator details and safety information. The I/O module is connected to the IO-Link master, and almost any safety device can be connected to the module. Parameters are set centrally from the controller. The safety-relevant information is sent through the master to the controller. The module requires only one infrastructure for automation and safety engineering up to PLe/SIL3 via IO-Link.
