The fail-safe modules of SIPLUS extreme RAIL ET 200SP expand the range of the ET 200SP series. They are incorporated seamlessly into the Safety Integrated concept as with ET 200S / ET 200M / ET 200iSP and ET200pro. Safety-related communication via PROFIsafe is also supported. The fail-safe modules for digital inputs and outputs (DI and DQ) are the same size as the standard modules. Their functional safety is certified in accordance with IEC 61508. They are designed for safety-related use up to SIL 2 according to EN 50126, 50128, 50129.
One special feature of the F modules of SIPLUS extreme RAIL ET 200SP is that the F-addresses no longer have to be set manually by means of the DIP switches on the module. They are now assigned during commissioning using the engineering function. When replacing a module, the F-addresses of the module remain in the coding of the BaseUnit. If a new module is inserted, these F-addresses are transferred automatically. New assignment of the F-addresses is therefore unnecessary. This new feature simplifies the set-up process and saves time.
Totally Integrated Automation (TIA)
Safety technology (Safety Integrated) is a component of Totally Integrated Automation and provides complete integration of safety and standard automation.
Whereas standard automation (classical PLCs) and safety automation (electro-mechanics) are still separate today, these two worlds are growing together into a uniform, integrated overall system. Siemens is thus able to present itself as a complete supplier of automation technology, in which safety engineering is part of the standard automation and system-wide integration exists.
