Our EGS(H) 41 series is certified for use in safety related applications up to SIL 2 to IEC 61508 and PL d to DIN EN ISO 13849; it enables you to reliably monitor a variety of operating statuses such as “safe standstill”, “reliable slip monitoring”, “safety limited speed” as well as “when carrying out maintenance work on live systems and components”.
With an integrated sensor (speed measurement), logic circuitry (speed evaluation) and actuator (speed switch) devices from our series EGS®(H) 41 function as a safety system. Safe operating statuses are monitored continuously utilizing integrated diagnostics functions. It is possible to log and export configuration parameters (such as switching points) as well as monitoring data (e.g., speed variations, circuit-breaker condition and so forth). In this combination, the EGS®(H) 41 series is the only range of products on the market anywhere in the world that is certified to Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 2 as well as up to Performance Level (PL) d.
