The Pilz PMCPROTEGO D.03/010/0/0/2/208-480VAC (8176520) is a compact yet powerful servo amplifier from the Pilz PMCprotego D series, designed to merge high-performance drive control with advanced functional safety. Built for industrial automation tasks that require precision, reliability, and integrated protection, it offers engineers a flexible solution for safe and efficient machine operation.

Operating with a 3-phase mains supply of 208–480 V AC, the unit supports a broad voltage range, making it suitable for use across international markets. This versatility simplifies standardisation for global OEMs and system integrators, as a single model can be deployed across multiple regions without modification. The AC supply compatibility ensures stable, efficient power delivery for servo applications in diverse industries.

A key strength of this servo amplifier is its integrated safety functionality. Features such as Safe Torque Off (STO), Safe Stop 1 (SS1), Safe Stop 2 (SS2), and Safely-Limited Speed (SLS) are built directly into the hardware, allowing critical safety requirements to be met without external devices. This integration reduces wiring complexity, saves cabinet space, and ensures compliance with international standards including EN ISO 13849 and IEC 61508. For machine operators, it means higher protection and reliable stopping behaviour when hazardous conditions occur.

The amplifier is designed with robust operational endurance, supporting a maximum switch-on frequency of 30 cycles per hour. This makes it suitable for applications involving frequent starts and stops, such as packaging systems, assembly lines, and automated handling equipment. By withstanding high switching demands, the unit ensures long service life and stable performance, even in continuous-use scenarios.

In addition to its safety and durability, the PMCPROTEGO D.03/010/0/0/2/208-480VAC delivers precise and dynamic motor control. It ensures smooth acceleration, controlled deceleration, and accurate positioning—essential factors for industries where production speed and product quality depend on flawless motion control.

As part of the PMCprotego D ecosystem, this servo amplifier integrates seamlessly with Pilz controllers, sensors, and safety systems. Its modular design supports tailored system architectures, enabling engineers to configure solutions specific to their application needs. The scalable nature of the system ensures long-term flexibility and investment security, as additional capacity or functionality can be added as required.

Ease of commissioning and operation is also a priority. The drive includes user-friendly parameterisation tools and diagnostic features, which reduce setup times and simplify fault identification. Clear status indicators support fast troubleshooting, helping to minimise downtime and maximise system availability.

In summary, the Pilz PMCPROTEGO D.03/010/0/0/2/208-480VAC is a robust, versatile, and safety-integrated servo amplifier. With its global voltage compatibility, integrated safety functions, high switching capacity, and precise servo performance, it provides a dependable solution for modern automation environments where productivity and operator protection must go hand in hand.
