HMS Networks Ixxat Safe T100 controller for functional safety over EtherCAT solution

Friday, 30 June, 2023 | Supplied by: HMS Industrial Networks


HMS Networks has released a new version of the Ixxat SafeT100 module allowing users to implement safe I/Os for FSoE — Functional Safety over EtherCAT. Previously available for PROFIsafe and CIP Safety, the new version supports FSoE according to ETG 5100 V1.2.0.

Ixxat Safe T100 is an all-in-one safety solution that allows device manufacturers and machine builders to implement configurable, safe inputs and outputs in applications up to SIL 3 and PLe Cat.4. It is designed to work hand in hand with Anybus CompactCom, also from HMS Networks.

While Anybus CompactCom handles the standard non-safe communication with the EtherCAT network, the Safe T100 handles the safe communication, in this case over FSoE.

A typical application for Ixxat Safe T100 is a safe emergency stop function for automation equipment such as drives, robots or process controllers.
