The Pilz PNOZ X5 12VDC 2N/O (Part No. 774326) is a compact and efficient safety relay from the trusted PNOZ X series, designed to provide reliable monitoring of safety functions and dependable disconnection of hazardous machinery when required. Tailored for applications where low-voltage DC operation is necessary, it offers a simple yet highly effective safety solution for a broad range of industries.

Operating on a 12 V DC supply, the PNOZ X5 is particularly suited to machinery and control systems that are powered by low-voltage circuits, including mobile equipment, battery-driven systems, or specialised installations where higher voltages are not practical. With a power consumption of just 2.5 W, it ensures efficient energy use, minimising system load and reducing heat generation inside control enclosures.

The relay includes 2 inputs for dual-channel monitoring, a feature that significantly enhances safety reliability. By monitoring two independent channels, the relay can detect wiring faults, short circuits, or discrepancies in the activation signals, ensuring that safety functions cannot be bypassed. This dual-channel capability makes the PNOZ X5 ideal for supervising critical devices such as emergency stop buttons, guard door switches, enabling devices, or light curtains.

Equipped with 2 normally open (N/O) safety contacts, the PNOZ X5 provides reliable switching of actuators, motors, and other energy sources. These outputs ensure hazardous movements are brought to a safe state whenever a fault is detected or a safety input is triggered. The N/O contacts are rated to meet EN 60947-4-1 (AC/DC1 utilisation categories), supporting reliable switching performance under industrial load conditions up to 240 V AC on the controlled side.

Built to Pilz’s exacting standards, the PNOZ X5 combines durability with ease of integration. Its compact housing is ideal for use in control cabinets with limited space, while its clearly marked terminals simplify wiring and reduce commissioning time. Once installed, the relay provides consistent and long-lasting performance, with minimal maintenance required.

The PNOZ X5 12VDC 2N/O is well-suited for a wide range of applications. It is particularly valuable in mobile machinery, transport systems, battery-operated equipment, and low-voltage automation systems, where standard higher-voltage relays cannot be used. In these contexts, it ensures compliance with safety standards while offering reliable operator and equipment protection.

In summary, the Pilz PNOZ X5 12VDC 2N/O (774326) delivers low-voltage compatibility, energy-efficient operation, dual-channel input monitoring, and robust output switching. It is a practical and dependable safety relay designed for specialised applications requiring compact design, high reliability, and compliance with international safety standards.
