The Pilz PNOZ s60 100–240VAC/DC 3N/O 1N/C 6SO (Part Number: 750601) is a high-performance safety relay from the renowned PNOZsigma family, engineered to provide reliable monitoring and switching of safety functions in industrial automation. Known for combining compact design with wide-ranging functionality, the PNOZ s60 delivers flexibility, efficiency, and compliance in one robust package.

A standout feature of this model is its wide supply voltage range, operating seamlessly on both 100–240 V AC/DC. This makes it ideal for global applications, eliminating the need for multiple variants to suit different power infrastructures. Whether deployed in European, American, or Asian facilities, the PNOZ s60 adapts effortlessly to local power requirements.

The relay is equipped with a versatile output configuration consisting of 3 normally open (N/O) safety contacts, 1 normally closed (N/C) contact, and 6 semiconductor outputs (SO). This mix of mechanical and solid-state outputs provides engineers with the flexibility to control safety-critical devices while also delivering diagnostic and signalling feedback to higher-level controllers. The N/O contacts are typically used for directly switching safety actuators such as contactors or solenoids, while the semiconductor outputs are ideal for efficient, wear-free signalling.

With its low power consumption—just 10.5 VA on AC supply and 8 W on DC supply—the PNOZ s60 is energy-efficient, making it well-suited for continuous operation in systems where reducing energy costs and ensuring sustainability are priorities. This efficiency is paired with Pilz’s signature reliability, ensuring the device performs consistently over long service life cycles.

The relay’s design supports safety applications such as emergency stop monitoring, guard door supervision, and two-hand control devices. Built in compliance with international safety standards, including those derived from EN 60947-1 and related directives, it ensures machine operators are safeguarded and that equipment is compliant with legal and regulatory requirements.

As part of the PNOZsigma range, the s60 benefits from the series’ compact design, which optimises control cabinet space. Despite its small footprint, it provides powerful safety functionality, reducing the need for multiple relays and simplifying system architecture. This helps reduce wiring complexity, installation time, and overall costs for system builders and end users alike.

Applications for the PNOZ s60 are diverse, spanning industries such as automotive manufacturing, packaging, material handling, robotics, and process automation. In each of these settings, the relay plays a crucial role in protecting operators from hazardous machine movements and ensuring compliance with stringent safety standards.

In summary, the Pilz PNOZ s60 100–240VAC/DC 3N/O 1N/C 6SO (750601) is a versatile and efficient safety relay that combines a wide input voltage range, flexible output configuration, low power consumption, and robust safety performance. Compact yet powerful, it provides engineers and operators with a reliable foundation for building safety-critical circuits in modern industrial automation systems.
