IC3600STKJ1C The performance rating of safety interlocks (from PLa to PLe) is a measure of the reliability of technical safety features. a performance rating from A to e describes the probability of failure within one hour. Taking PL e as an example, as the highest performance level, its failure probability per hour is about one in 20 million, it can be seen that the possibility of failure is very low to reach this performance level. For the safety interlock device, the higher the performance level, the more stringent the requirements for the system, and the high performance level of the device also requires greater locking force.
Factors to consider when choosing a safety interlock device
Type of protective door: according to the design and function of protective door, select the corresponding safety interlock device.
Different types of protective doors require different types ofIC3600STKJ1C safety interlocking devices. For example, for sliding doors, revolving doors and fast rolling doors, a specially designed interlock device is required to ensure the correct closing and locking of the door. In simple terms, we can divide the types of protective doors into two categories: accessible and non-accessible, as the name suggests, accessible refers to the personnel can enter the inside of the security door, while non-accessible refers to the inability to enter the inside of the security door. The smart factory that we often show at the show is a very good example of non-entry.
Installation: Consider the special requirements of the installation environment, such as space limitations or access frequency.
The size of the installation space, the weight of the door, the frequency of use, and the surrounding environment (such as temperature, humidity, dust, etc.) will affect the choice of safety interlocking devices. Choosing a device suitable for these conditions ensures its reliability and durability.
Anti-tamper protection: To ensure that the device can resist unauthorized tampering to ensure the safe operation of the equipment
In order to prevent unauthorized access or operators from intentionally bypassiIC3600STKJ1C ng the security system, the security interlock device should have certain tamper-proof characteristics. This usually involves physical safeguards and/or electronic locking mechanisms.
Personnel protection and process protection
Safety interlocks are selected according to their purpose, that is, to protect people from harm (personnel protection) or to protect processes from unexpected interruptions (process protection). Personnel protection often requires faster response times and a higher level of security.
In addition to the above factors, users should also consider maintenance and diagnosis, economy, certification and standards, compatibility and other factors, a comprehensive consideration of a variety of factors to ensure that the appropriate security interlock device for specific application scenarios, while ensuring safety, taking into account efficiency and economy.
