The TBPN safety block I/O module combines both standard and safety inputs and outputs in a single device. The IP67 hybrid modules can be adapted to the specific signal requirements in the machine. On the safety side of the Profinet/Profisafe module, two safety inputs are available for connecting different safety sensors, such as light curtains or emergency-stop buttons. Two additional safety channels can be used either as safety inputs or outputs. For the standard side, four universal discrete I/O ports are available for connecting general-purpose signals and can switch up to 2 amps. Two of these ports also can be configured as IO-Link masters.
