Ultra-Compact Safety Relays – Modular, Space-Saving, and Cost-Efficient

The ultra-compact MINOS series safety relays offer a modern, space-saving, and highly functional safety solution. With a width of only 6 mm, these relays enable extremely dense installation in control cabinets. Their goal is to provide a modular, cost-efficient safety solution that focuses on the essentials while still meeting the highest safety standards.

### Available Versions
The MINOS series is available in two different versions, each tailored to meet specific application requirements:

• MINOS SL Series: Equipped with wear-free, safe semiconductor outputs. This technology ensures an especially long service life and is ideal for applications with frequent switching operations.
• MINOS SD Series: Features safe relay outputs that provide potential-free switching contacts. This version is ideal for applications where galvanic isolation of signals is required.

Both series meet the highest safety requirements up to PL e / Cat. 4 / SIL 3, making them the ideal solution for safety-critical applications in industry.

### Excellent Diagnostic Functions
The MINOS series relays are equipped with status and error LEDs that indicate the operating status and potential faults. These features make it easy to detect errors, reduce downtime, and enable quick and efficient troubleshooting.

### Space-Saving Design – Ultra-Slim with Only 6 mm Width
With a width of only 6 mm, the MINOS safety relays are one of the most compact safety solutions on the market. This space-saving design enables higher packing density in control cabinets and reduces installation costs. Thanks to this compact design, the relays are ideal for use in machines and systems where space in the control cabinet is limited.

### Wide Range of Applications
The MINOS safety relays are highly versatile and suitable for a variety of safety-critical applications, including:

• Monitoring Emergency Stop Buttons: Ensures the immediate and safe shutdown of the machine in hazardous situations.
• Monitoring Safety Doors: Ensures that the machine can only be operated when the safety door is closed.
• Monitoring Light Curtains: Detects the intrusion of people or objects into the hazardous area and safely shuts down the machine.
• Reinforcement of Safe Outputs: Amplifies safe PLC outputs to control downstream contactors or relays.

### Certified for Demanding Areas of Use
The MINOS series safety relays are specially certified for 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. These certifications guarantee safe operation in safety-critical processes, in machines, systems, and combustion systems.
