RS is stocking Omron Automation’s NX Series safety controllers and accessories for contemporary industrial environments with more than 10 safety devices, long or complex programming sequences and demanding safety network requirements.
Safety controllers interact with other elements of industrial safety systems—like sensors, emergency stops and light curtains—to detect hazards and trigger automated responses, like slowing or stopping machines. They also interact with non-safety devices such as PLCs to prioritize process safety and HMIs to deliver diagnostic data.
NX Series safety controllers and accessories are engineered to help users overcome common safety and operating challenges in industrial environments ranging from electronics, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, automotive and heavy equipment manufacturing facilities to material handling and logistics environments.
These challenges include delayed fault detection and response times, diagnostic difficulties in complex systems, unexpected downtime, employee and equipment safety, compatibility with existing systems, time and labor requirements and space constraints in control panels.
