Specialist safety advice and equipment from Pilz Safe Automation  

CONTACT PILZ AUSTRALIA

Safety specialist, Pilz, is the world’s leading supplier of safe automation control systems.

Pilz invented the safety relay and its world firsts include a programmable safety system for machinery, an approved safe field bus, the SafetyBUSp and the recently released PNOZmulti, a freely configurable safety relay.

Today, Pilz Australia, one of 23 Pilz companies worldwide, is Australia’s number one supplier of safety technology for machines and automation.

Leverage Pilz’s resources for professional development, training, safe control circuit designs, a full range of the famous Pilz PNOZ safety relays (including electronic wear-free versions and the new PNOZ multi configurable relay), plus the equally famous Programmable Safety Systems (failsafe PLC's) and the SafetyBUSp safe field bus. Importantly, the Programmable Safety System, SafetyBUSp and PNOZ multi are all approved to SIL 3 IEC 61508 and EN 954-1 Category 4.

Pilz has also developed a family of category 4/SIL3 compatible non-contact safety sensors, e-stops and presence sensing systems to provide complete safety solutions from input to final output.

PNOZ safety relays - Simplicity, flexibility and maximum safety

The PNOZ safety relays are ubiquitous in industry worldwide and a proven solution for front-line safety challenges.

Pilz developed the first two-hand control relay, followed by the first emergency stop relay, PNOZ, designed to protect both operator and machine.

The PNOZmulti series of configurable safety relays has been approved by TÜV, BG and to SIL 3 IEC 61508 and EN 954-1 Category 4. The series offers users considerable benefits, particularly saving the laborious process of wiring individual relays when constructing a safety-related circuit.

  Apart from the e-stop, Pilz safety relays are commonly used with safety gates, light curtains, safety mats, two-handed controls, hold-to-run, isolation switches and other safety devices. The relays ensure hazardous energy is safely controlled before people can access machinery.                               

Programmable safety systems

A logic-driven safety controller offers optimum safety levels and real flexibility as the plant develops and changes. The Pilz Programmable Safety System (PSS) has extended proven PLC technology to control one or more circuits for safety-related functions. In the past, these circuits have used conventional safety relays. The growing demands on technical safety functions and their increasing complexity make the use of safe electronics both sensible and necessary without compromising reliability. The Pilz PSS conforms to the most stringent standards, including SIL 3 IEC 61508 and EN 954-1 Category 4.

  Pilz PSS offers significant advantages in terms of configuration, approval and operation. TuV approved software blocks are now taking over the function of conventional safety relays. Fault/diagnostic tools complete the user-friendly features on this electronic safety system. In conjunction with the safety sensors, this system combination provides a safe, complete solution, from the input side to the output side.

The applications for a Pilz PSS are almost unlimited, but examples include everything from rubber mills and brick stacking plant to fairground safety.

SafetyBUSp safe field bus – secure communication

Established bus systems generally do not meet the requirements of a "safe" network. Safety specialist, Pilz, offers safe bus systems to SIL 3 IEC 61508 and EN 954-1 Category 4 with the same benefits of conventional fieldbus systems.

The open protocol of the safe bus system SafetyBUSp p enables users to incorporate different field modules from other manufacturers and to network programmable safety systems from the Pilz Programmable safety system range.

More than automation

The comprehensive range of Pilz products is only the beginning - take advantage of the expertise of its people and bring together a comprehensive safety solution for your business.
