for the quick and simple module-based implementation of safe IOs
| Product status | Product announcement Availability December 2013 |
The IXXAT Safe T100 offers device manufacturers an easy way to control safe I/O signals using a safe field bus protocol. The module meets the SIL3 safety requirement level as defined by IEC 61508 and Performance Level PLe / Category 4 in IEC 13849-1.
It is used in customer devices together with a communication module of the ANYBUS CompactCom series
, which is used to implement the unsafe bus connection. Safety communications use the black channel principle through the ANYBUS CompactCom communication module. For PROFIsafe, for example, the communication module carries out the tasks of a PROFINET I/O device. The IXXAT Safe T100/PS implements the PROFIsafe layer and the safe control of three dual-channel inputs, as well as one dual-channel output. The module's very compact dimension and flexible Safety I/O routing make it perfect for integration into customer-specific device solutions.
The IXXAT Safe T100 is currently available for PROFIsafe. Support for additional safety protocols (CIP Safety and FSoE) is in progress.
Black channel principle
Simple certification
For device certification, a comprehensive safety manual is provided. This describes all needed integration and verification steps to achieve the TÜV certification of IXXAT Safe T100-based end products with greatly reduced effort. Especially the clear separation of safety-relevant functions from the unsafe functions of the end device by the precertified IXXAT Safe T100 plug board is a great help in this situation.
