Generic and safety control in one CPU

The safety CPU can be installed directly on the MELSEC iQ-R Series base rack, and is easily integrated into an existing or new control system. Safety devices are connectable using the CC-Link IE Field network with safety communication integrated into the network protocol over a widely-available industrial Ethernet topology. The safety CPU is compliant with ISO 13849-1 PL e and IEC 61508 SIL 3 and is certified by TÜV Rheinland^®.

Common engineering platform

In GX Works3, operation and safety programs are included in the same project folder, eliminating the need to manage multiple project folders. Various useful features of GX Works3 are also available for safety programs similar to other control programs.

Faster response times and handling of larger programs

Utilizing the high-performance capabilities of the MELSEC iQ-R Series and CC-Link IE Field network, productivity is enhanced as response times are even faster. Additionally, safety control program capacity has been increased by up to three times, to 40K steps, enabling the control of more complex programs.
