Zander Aachen Safety Module MINOS SL1D screw terminal; PL d/SILCL 2

The extremely compact MINOS series safety relays with a width of only 6 mm offer an innovative solution for safety-critical applications in automation technology. Their main goal is to provide a modular and cost-optimized safety solution that focuses on the essentials while still ensuring maximum safety.

The MINOS series includes two main variants:

• MINOS SL Series: With wear-free, safe semiconductor outputs.
• MINOS SD Series: With safe relay outputs.

Both variants provide a high level of safety up to PL e / Cat. 4 / SIL 3, making them ideal for safety-critical applications in industry. The relays are equipped with comprehensive diagnostic features. Various status and error LEDs enable quick fault detection and simplify maintenance.

Thanks to their ultra-compact design with a width of only 6 mm, the relays are particularly space-saving and allow for high packing density in control cabinets. Their versatility is evident in the wide range of possible applications, including monitoring emergency stop buttons, safety doors, light curtains, as well as the safe contact reinforcement of safe outputs (e.g., safe PLC outputs) on machines and systems.

Another outstanding advantage of the MINOS series is its extensive certification. All modules are approved for use in continuous operation in combustion systems according to EN 50156-1 and EN 746-2. For use in the process industry, the modules meet the requirements of IEC 61511-1. This makes the MINOS series the ideal choice for safety-critical applications in machinery, systems, combustion systems, and the process industry.
