PSSuniversal 2 decentralised I/O for automation and safety

An extensive portfolio of I/O modules enables the PSSuniversal 2 to be used with a wide variety of automation and safety inputs and outputs, both digital and analogue. Typically a PSSuniversal 2 I/O system will be installed remotely and connected via Profinet to a higher-level controller.

Simple, versatile and granular, PSSuniversal 2 enables the I/O to be tailored to match the application requirements. Furthermore, modules are quick and easy to add or exchange, even when the machine is operating.

Each assembled PSSuniversal 2 system - which may comprise a header, voltage supply module, communications modules, and a mix of automation and safety I/O modules - can be used with the user's choice of automation data, safety data or a combination of the two. Data can be shared with a higher-level monitoring and control system via a Profinet and/or Profisafe.

Systems are configured using the new Pilz PASconfig drag-and-drop configuration tool. This intuitive software helps users to avoid errors and, ultimately, saves time so the system can be ready as quickly as possible.
