New insulation monitor PMD s20 is simpler to operate - Easy-turn operation
PMD s20 has now been added to the portfolio of electronic monitoring relays in the PMDsigma series from Pilz. With it, it is simply turn and click to set all the values, which can then be stored on a chip card. This gives users the flexibility to transfer data for other devices.
PMD s20 monitors the electrical safety of insulated
supplies – for operating theatres, offshore installations or the electroplating industry for example – and prevents power failures due to short circuits.

Safe proximity switch PSENini from Pilz expands the sensor technology portfolio - Safe, non-contact monitoring
Pilz has now added the safe proximity switch PSENini to its safe sensor technology portfolio. PSENini detects the approach of metallic objects without using contacts. Safe detection is provided even on multiple position
applications - with long cams or rotational movements. The non-wearing technology is particularly suitable for high switching frequencies and guarantees high productivity and a long service life.
PSENini are available in an IP67 design and so are suitable for use under difficult industrial conditions such as heavy soiling, shock or vibration.

Line inspection device PLIDdys prevents unintended power-up in the event of an error - Safe power-up guaranteed
The Pilz range now includes a safe line inspection device: on single-channel two-wire connections, PLIDdys ensures safe power-up and maximum safety on long cable routes of up to three kilometres. With PLIDdys, unintended power-up or plant start-up can be excluded in the event of an error. This is particularly beneficial on interlinked plants or on plant sections distributed over a wide area, which may not always be clearly visible. The extremely compact design means that existing plants can easily be retrofitted.

Simplifying the calculations of safety functions - new version of the PAScal Safety Calculator enables libriaries to be imported in Sistema format
Not everyone's a mathematical genius. That's why, as far as possible, it's important to simplify the complex calculation of safety functions in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1 and EN/IEC 62061. So Pilz has once again enhanced its PAScal software tool, used to verify the functional safety of machinery. With improved libraries, which store the safety-related characteristic data for all Pilz products, the new version v1.5.0 is even more practice-oriented. It also allows you to import libraries from other manufacturers in Sistema format, the similar software assistant produced by the IFA (Institute for Occupational Safety and Health of the German Social Accident Insurance).
