The Intelliface( UE410 Flexi modular safety controller uses configurable logic that works without expensive and time-consuming computer software (safety PLCs). Logic is implemented with rotary switches on the front of each module. Multiple modules are also accommodated. The device uses a screen, the Flexi Configuration Planner, to help simplify the controller by explaining possible configurations.
It can implement logical functions (AND, OR, MUTE, Bypass) without software. It is third-party certified to satisfy control reliability, Category 4, and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 3 requirements. What’s more, the device supports more than 50 dual-channel safety sensors in a single system, and it replaces two or more conventional safety relays using a single 22.5-mm module.
