Sick Flexi Soft FX0 Series Safety Controller, 5 Safety Inputs, 5 Safety Outputs

The Safety controllers Flexi Soft support Device Net industrial network connectivity. They feature 1 female connector, Open Style, with 5 pins for connection. These controllers do not come with a protective coating for more challenging ambient conditions. The Flexi Soft safety controller can be programmed via software. Thanks to the modular hardware platform, Flexi Soft provides a tailored and efficient solution for a whole host of safety applications. A wide range of modules are available: main modules, gateways, digital and analogue input/output modules, Motion Control modules, as well as relay modules.

The license-free Flexi Soft Designer configuration software enables intuitive programming, rapid commissioning, and continuous diagnostics down to the automation level. Functions to enable safe controller networking, safe series connection, or safe drive monitoring reduce costs and boost productivity. A whole host of additional functions means that Flexi Soft is able to bridge the gap to system solutions from SICK.
