Monitors for Complex AS-i Safety

May 6, 2008
AS-Interface (AS-i) safety monitors include a graphical user interface for commissioning and field diagnosis of the safety system, as well as the capability to link multiple Safety at Work circuits together, allowing larger and more complex safety systems to be handled via AS-i.
The safety monitor’s configuration is stored on a removable memory card, making it much easier to transfer the configuration to a new unit. Manufactured by Bihl + Wiedemann and distributed by the vendor, the safety monitors are available as stand-alone units for use with standard AS-i masters and gateways, or as a package with an integrated Profibus-DP gateway. The stand-alone safety monitors can be used as AS-i 2.0, 2.1 and 3.0 slaves.Turck Inc.www.turck.com800.544.7769
