PNOZ m C0 - The New Compact, High-Performance Safety Solution

PNOZ m C0 – The New Compact, High-Performance Safety Solution

Pilz’ expanded range of small configurable safety controllers includes the PNOZ m C0 – as narrow as a safety relay, but as powerful as a safety controller. Measuring just 22.5 mm in width, this ultra-compact unit offers exceptional safety performance, monitoring up to four critical safety functions on machines. It supports safety requirements up to category PL e (performance level) or SIL CL 3, making it an ideal solution for small machines across various industries such as packaging, robotics, and food & beverage.

The Pilz PNOZ m C0 combines the advantages of a safety relay with the power of a configurable safety controller, delivering eight safe inputs and four safe semiconductor outputs, all within a slim profile. With this functionality, it can reliably monitor safety functions such as E-STOP, safety gate monitoring, light curtains, and two-hand control. Its space-saving design ensures minimised costs without compromising on performance.

The PNOZ m C0 benefits from Intuitive Digital Engineering and Easy Configuration

Safety circuits for the PNOZ m C0 can be easily created using the free PNOZmulti Configurator software, which is included with the unit. Starting from Version 11.1, the tool allows for flexible, straightforward implementation of safety requirements up to PL e/SIL CL 3. The system’s digital engineering capabilities reduce configuration time, cutting costs and improving overall efficiency. Safety architectures can be downloaded directly to the device via USB or saved to a chip card, offering an efficient and adaptable solution that can be updated or modified at any time.

Scalable for Future Growth

As your safety needs grow, the PNOZ m C0 offers the flexibility to scale. The system allows for easy expansion by migrating the project through the software tool to accommodate additional safety functions. Pilz offers modular and expandable base units that provide increased performance and connectivity for more complex machine requirements, including compatibility with all major fieldbus systems, user-friendly diagnostics, and web-based visualisation.
