TÜV confirms the safety of B&R I/O modules and controllers

TÜV confirms the safety of B&R I/O modules and controllers

Safety offerings from B&R allow users to achieve modularity and performance without having to sacrifice availability. Safe I/O modules included in the B&R X20 series offer a wide spectrum of failsafe digital and analogue inputs. An example is the robust temperature input module for thermocouples, which demonstrates how safety products can be integrated into systems with furnaces or boilers.

Network-integrated safety technology offers huge advantages, especially in the area of process engineering. And with fast response times, minimal wiring and safe data transport over any type of fieldbus, no other safety protocol offers production lines the same degree of protection as openSAFETY.
