Two-hand operation to SIL 3 or PL e with a Modular Safety System
Application
Two-hand operation consoles comprise two pushbuttons (e.g. mushroom pushbuttons or
sensor switches) that must be pressed simultaneously to operate a machine. This prevents
the operator from reaching into the danger zone during operation.
