Speed Monitoring

Bihl+Wiedemann offers a variety of devices for safe speed monitoring. The video gives an overview of the functions, applications and interfaces of these modules.

Extremely Compact and Cost-Efficient

Safe Speed Monitors for Sensors/Initiators: Safety Basic Monitors

  • Autonomous compact safety controller
  • 4 × 2-channel safe inputs or standard inputs and status outputs
  • Speed monitor on the local inputs
    • 2 axes 2-channel (SIL2, PLd) or SIL3, PLe)
    • 4 axes 1-channel (SIL1, PLc)
  • Standstill monitor on the local inputs
    • 4 axes 2-channel (SIL2, PLd)
  • 2 safe electronic outputs
  • USB or Ethernet interface for configuration

And all in one unit with just 22.5 mm installation width

Speed monitoring with 2 sensors, monitor max. 2 axes

Speed monitoring with 1 sensor, monitor max. 4 axes

Speed monitoring in the Gateway

Maximum Functionality


Safe speed monitors for encoders

  • Monitor up to 2 axes, up to SIL3, PLe
  • For sine/cosine, SSI, TTL or HTL-Encoder
  • Detailed diagnostics and shut-off history via software
  • Chip card for easy device exchange
  • 22.5 mm width

    Devices with local safe outputs

    • 2 safe electronic outputs
    • Support of all safety functions acc. EN 61800-5-2
    • Any number of safety functions can be implemented
      • Possibility to configure several functions or same function with different parameters for each axis
      • Max. 128 devices configurable

    Encoder signal between encoder and converter is tapped.

    Encoder is connected directly to the Speed Monitor.

    What speed monitors are able to do

    Safe monitoring of:

     

    • Standstill
    • Speed
    • Speed range
    • Direction
    • Shaft break
    • Belt misalignment
    • Slippage

     

    Even for different gear trains

    • Break control
    • Position
    • End position
    • Position range

    Safety Gateways with Safe Fieldbus Connection

    Safe speed monitoring in the drive
