One module, twice the safety
Wago's new 750-663 4 channel input I/O module for PROFIsafe applications combines functional and intrinsic safety within a single unit. Just 24mm wide, it is ideal for ensuring the safety of personnel in hazardous zones 0 and 1. The four intrinsically safe inputs with functional safety can be used for applications up to SIL 3 and Cat 4 PLe
Despite the combined features, the requirements for users during commissioning remain the same. The safety interface for the new module is identical to that of a pure safety I/O module from WAGO.
The input and other process data is transferred using PROFIsafe protocols V1 and V2 on one fieldbus line. Inputs are continually monitored for cross circuits and voltage supply from separate sources. Different settings can be made in the I/O module using the WAGO-I/O-CHECK configuration software, such as the operating mode, activating and de-activating of test pulses and discrepancy and filter times.
