Multifunctional, freely configurable and tailormade: the base units PNOZmulti 2 are used in virtually every area of plant and mechanical engineering. PNOZmulti can be used to monitor safety functions safely and to perform standard control functions economically.

All the necessary functions are created on the PC using the ingeniously simple configuration software PNOZmulti Configurator. The completed configuration is loaded into the base unit via a USB port. A further benefit is the exchangeable program memory. The base unit PNOZ m B1 uses a USB stick; the PNOZ m B0 uses a chip card.

• Tailor-made costs because of an exact match for the application, thanks to use of expansion modules
• Short downtimes and high plant availability thanks to connection to all common fieldbus systems via corresponding modules
• User-friendly diagnostic options
• Maximum safety – depending on the application up to PL e of EN ISO 13849-1 and SIL CL 3 of IEC 62061.

• Illuminated display for faster commissioning and easy diagnostics
• Display of error messages, state of the supply voltage, inputs/outputs, status and device information, individual customer texts
• Max. 4 expansion modules can be connected on the left-hand side, also max. 1 communication module and 1 fieldbus module
• Plug-in connection terminals – choice of spring-loaded or screw terminals (available as accessories)
• Exchangeable program memory
• Diagnostic interface

PNOZ m B1 – For large projects

• Fine granularity of the application – no inputs or outputs on the base unit, number controllable depending on type of the I/O modules used
• maximum flexibility with large projects – up to 12 safe expansion modules and 1 output module for standard applications can be expanded on the right-hand side
• larger projects can be configured safely – up to 1,024 connection lines are possible in the PNOZmulti Configurator (from Version 10)
• Communicate faster – integral Ethernet interfaces and Modbus/TCP on board
• USB stick as a storage medium, several projects can be stored on a USB stick

PNOZ m B0 – The universal option

• 20 safe inputs, up to 8 of which can be configured as auxiliary outputs
• 4 safe semiconductor outputs, depending on the application up to PL e (EN ISO 13849-1), SIL CL 3 (IEC 62061)
• 4 test pulse outputs, up to 4 of which can be configured as standard outputs
• Max. 6 expansion modules can be connected on the right-hand side
• Chip card as storage medium
• Energy consumption up to 80% lower than comparable products

Can be connected to the base unit: E-STOP pushbuttons, two-hand buttons, safety gate limit switches, light barriers, scanners, enable switches, safety gate switches, PSEN sensor technology, operating mode selector switches, pressure-sensitive mats, sensors.
