The Pilz PSSU E F 2DOR 8 (Part No. 312225) is a powerful I/O expansion module designed for use within the Pilz PSSu (Programmable Safety and Control System) family. Specifically developed to provide robust relay-based outputs, this module enhances the ability of PSSu controllers to manage safety-related switching functions with high reliability and compliance to international standards.

Equipped with two relay outputs, the PSSU E F 2DOR 8 is ideal for safety applications where electrical isolation and robust switching capability are required. These outputs can be used to disconnect hazardous machine functions, control actuators, or interface with higher-level systems while maintaining compliance with safety regulations. Its versatility ensures suitability for a broad range of industrial automation environments.

The module’s high switching capacity makes it suitable for both AC and DC applications. It is rated for 250 V AC at 8 A and 24 V DC, enabling it to handle resistive or slightly inductive loads with reliability. This makes it applicable to a wide variety of machine components, including motors, solenoids, drives, and lighting circuits. Its compliance with EN 60947-4-1 (AC/DC1 utilisation category) ensures dependable switching performance, even under frequent or heavy-duty operation.

As part of the modular PSSu I/O system, the PSSU E F 2DOR 8 is designed to integrate seamlessly with Pilz’s safety controllers and automation systems. This modular approach allows users to tailor safety and automation solutions to specific applications, adding only the I/O modules they require. The expansion capability supports scalable system design, enabling both small-scale and large, distributed safety architectures to benefit from consistent performance and simplified integration.

The module’s design emphasises ease of use, with clear terminal layouts and robust connectors that simplify installation and wiring. This not only reduces commissioning time but also enhances reliability by minimising wiring errors. Its compact format ensures efficient use of control cabinet space while maintaining rugged durability to withstand industrial environments.

Applications for the PSSU E F 2DOR 8 include a broad range of industries such as automotive, packaging, robotics, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and process automation. It is particularly valuable where safety functions demand the switching of high-capacity loads, such as stopping motors, disabling drives, or controlling emergency circuits.

In summary, the Pilz PSSU E F 2DOR 8 (312225) provides two robust relay outputs, high switching capacity, compliance with industrial standards, and seamless integration into PSSu systems. It is a reliable, modular solution that enhances the flexibility and scalability of industrial safety and automation systems while ensuring operator and equipment protection.
