WARNING
Caution - Risk of injury!
The TwinSAFE compact controller may only be used for the purposes described below!
The TwinSAFE compact controller expands the application range of the Beckhoff EtherCAT system by
functions that enable it to be used in the field of machine safety as well. The TwinSAFE compact controller is
designed for machine safety functions and the directly associated industrial automation tasks. It is therefore
approved only for applications with a defined fail-safe state. This safe state is the wattless state.
The EK1960 TwinSAFE compact controller is suitable for operation as
• Stand-alone Safety Controller
• a safety controller within an EtherCAT network
• a safety I/O device within an EtherCAT network with, for example, an EL6910 as TwinSAFE Master
WARNING
