CIP Safetyâ„¢ Module enables ABB Drives|
- CIP Safetyâ„¢ plug-in module for ACS380, ACS580 and ACS880 series VFDs - Features safe functions: Safe Torque Off (STO) and Safe Stop 1, time controlled (SS1-t) - Ready-made safety functions, no need for separate safety configuration in the drive
ABB introduces its CIP Safety™ FSCS-21 Function Module compatible with its ACS380 (Machin-ery), ACS580 (General Purpose) and ACS880 (Industrial) series of drives. Certified by TUV, this easy-to-use, compact plug-in safety module enables seamless integration of ABB drives into a CIP Safety™ network with any CIP Safety™ PLC.
The module features two built-in safety functions: Safety Torque Off (STO) and Safe Stop 1, time controlled (SS1-t), which meet machinery safety requirements up to SIL3/Ple. These ready-made safety functions require no special parameterization, software, or safety password - simply define the safety network number and EtherNet/IP™ communication settings and start running your ap-plication. Additional features include support for DLR ring networks and predefined safety and non-safety add-on instructions for advanced PLC integration.
"You can now easily and seamlessly integrate ABB drives of different types and sizes in your CIP Safety™ network to ensure the safety of your machinery or processes," says Adam Bainbridge, Manager of Product Management, Industrial & Machinery at ABB Drive Product Division.
