Vital Safety Controller
Vital is a configurable safety controller that can monitor all safety devices on smaller machines.
A single Vital to supervise all safety functions on many machines that otherwise would have required a programmable safety controller or multiple safety relays.
Vital is also commonly used to supervise all emergency stops for larger machine lines.
Features and benefits
Easy installation
- Easily add new or non-DYNlink devices with Tina adaptors to an existing system (no programming needed)
- Reduced wiring with using DYNlink devices and accessories
- DYNlink devices uses M12 connectors which makes for easier connections
Continuous operation
- Advanced Diagnostics with use of DYNlink devices – Flashing Lights guide you to the problem
- No configuration required if exchanging devices
- Detachable terminal blocks speed up replacement
Safety and protection
- TUV-tested to the highest level of safety with DYNlink devices, up to 30 DYNlink devices can be attached to one Vital Safety Controller in series.
- Cannot be bypassed at the controller
Application
Used to control as single stop condition. Vital is a configurable safety controller that does not require programming. It uses the DYNlink system, which allows up to 30 safety devices to be connected in series to the same circuit, while achieving PL e.
DYNlink is an ABB-specific sensor-communication and cabling solution that makes it easy to reach the highest level of safety using a minimum of cables and PLC inputs.
