Preventa Safety Relays (XPS)
A safety relay is the simplest way to build a certified safety function: the module monitors the e-stop or guard circuit on two independent channels, checks itself on every cycle and only allows the machine to start when both channels agree and the reset is deliberate. The 22.5 mm housings mount on standard DIN rail with plug-in terminals, and the front LEDs show exactly which channel is holding the machine off — which is what shortens fault-finding at three in the morning.

Key characteristics
- Dual-channel monitoring with cross-fault detection
- Up to PL e / Category 4 (ISO 13849-1) and SILCL 3 (IEC 62061)
- Forcibly guided safety contacts plus auxiliary contacts
- Manual, monitored or automatic start selection
- 24 V AC/DC supply, 22.5 mm DIN-rail modules with plug-in terminals
Typical applications
E-stop, guard door and light curtain circuits on single machines
