TrusTed, reliable machine safeTy soluTions
Leaders in the field of optical sensing, Banner Engineering has been producing safety light screens for more than five decades. The success of this product continues with the recently launched SLC4 and LP models. To complement the range the Company also offers a comprehensive range of safety controllers, safety interlocks, two-hand controls and emergency stop buttons.
development process. Given that there can never be any compromise on safety the challenge for the Company’s development team is to always produce reliable, cost-efficient solutions. One of the more prolific developments recently has been in the Safety Controller & Relay Range -

afety products are an important part of Banner’s product portfolio and as such are subject to a consistent and continuous
intuitive user interface with advanced diagnostic capabilities. Significant inventory savings can be achieved with the SC10, as it supports a wide range of safety devices, eliminating the need to buy and stock safety relay modules dedicated to specific safety devices. Each unit has two 6 amp relay outputs with
three normally open sets of contacts, enabling the creation of independent safety zones with unique outputs for different safety functions. It has 10 inputs, including four inputs that can be converted to outputs for more efficient terminal use. Automatic Terminal Optimisation (ATO) makes it possible to increase the number of available inputs from 10 up to 14 to accommodate additional devices. Industrial Ethernet two-way communication enables 256 virtual non-safety status outputs and 80 virtual non-safety inputs (reset, on/off, cancel off-delay, mute enable). Set-up and management of the SC10 could not
be simpler, thanks to its clear, icon-based programming with drag-and-drop PC configuration. The unit has an external drive (SC- XM3) that can be used to configure the SC10 in
10
seconds without a PC. Users simply create and confirm a configuration using the safety controller software, then write the configuration to the SC- XM3 and insert it into the micro USB port of the SC10. The configuration, network settings, and passwords automatically download to the SC10. The configuration can be applied to multiple SC10 safety controllers to get machines up and running quickly, or to a single unit for an easy swap out in the field.
