Information About EL6900
The EL6900 is a dedicated safety controller module within the TwinSAFE system, engineered for Boolean-based safety logic using certified function blocks. Its construction features a compact IP20 housing with a horizontal installation orientation suited for standard EtherCAT terminal racks. The device integrates seamlessly with FSoE-capable components, enabling up to 128 safe communication links for distributed safety architectures. Typical applications include muting, interlocking, emergency-stop logic, and other SIL3/PL e safety functions requiring configurable logic processing and backup/restore capabilities.
Key Features
- TwinSAFE logic terminal: Designed for processing safety-related Boolean logic.
- Supports up to 128 FSoE connections: Enables communication with extensive safe I/O networks.
- Certified safety performance: Complies with SIL3 (EN 61508) and PL e Cat. 4 (ISO 13849-1).
- Fast logic cycle: Operates with cycle times around 500 µs depending on project scope.
- Backup/restore capability: Simplifies controller replacement during service operations.
- Parameterizable watchdog: Allows configurable fault response times.
- Compact terminal format: 12 mm width for space-efficient EtherCAT installations.
- IP20 protection: Suitable for installation within protected control cabinets.
The EL6900 delivers the reliability and precision required for centralized and distributed safety logic control in EtherCAT-based automation systems.
