GuardPLC 1200 Overview
GuardPLC 1200 is a safety-related compact programmable electronic system (PES) designed in accordance with IEC 61131. Despite its compact size, it complies with the requirements for a control system of safety integrity level (SIL) 3 according to IEC 61508.
The GuardPLC 1200 is designed for smaller applications that require functional safety and that can be serviced with a fixed number of I/O points. GuardPLC's compact size combined with DIN rail mounting allows deployment even in cramped space conditions.
Typical applications for the GuardPLC 1200 include perimeter guarding for robot/weld cells, perimeter guarding for packaging machines, entertainment (ride control and ski lift control), burner management, and press controls.
