Quick-response Safety Terminals

Aug. 2, 2008
As part of the DST1-XD0808SL-1 Safety I/O Terminals line, the DST1-XD supports 6 safety inputs and 8 safety outputs, and is capable of storing simple logic. 
This allows local outputs to be directly controlled by local inputs, giving the user a maximum response time of 18.7ms—potentially less than 1/6 the response time of competitive safety I/O terminals, says the vendor. The DST1-XD can act as a DeviceNet Slave, allowing safety input and status information to be monitored via a DeviceNet Master. Each safety output can be controlled through a network signal, or used as an auxiliary output function. These safety I/O terminals are IEC/EN61508 (SIL3) and EN954-1 (Cat. 4) certified.Omron Scientific Technologies Inc.www.sti.com800.479.3658
