Description
The Safety Mat Manager is designed to monitor multiple safety mats, each with its own connection. The Safety Mat Manager accepts up to eight individual mats with four-pin micro quick disconnect connectors.
The Safety Mat Manager provides an LED status indication for each of the mat connections. Since the LEDs indicate whether the mat is shorted or open, troubleshooting and replacement of a damaged mat within a mat system, is much quicker when compared to a traditional mat system where multiple mats are wired in series.
An internal switch allows for the setting of the reset to automatic/manual or monitored manual. When set to automatic/manual, the reset circuit can be jumpered, connected auxiliary contacts, or connected to an unmonitored manual reset by adding a momentary normally open switch in the monitoring loop. When set to monitored manual, the monitoring circuit must be closed and then opened to activate the outputs.
Stepping on any one of the mats deactivates the safety outputs. The outputs include two or six normally open safety rated outputs used to shut down the machine and one normally closed or normally open auxiliary output to indicate the status of the Mat Manager. The safety outputs have independent and redundant internal contacts to support the safety function.
