The Pilz PNOZ m B0 is an updated base unit for the PNOZmulti configurable control system.

The base unit has the ability to be expanded on the right-hand side with I/O modules, which can be used as both inputs and outputs. Users benefit from increased flexibility in engineering. At a width of 45 mm, the base unit saves space in the control cabinet and also provides an integrated, illuminated display with individually customised texts, enabling rapid commissioning as well as diagnostics. The resulting PNOZmulti 2 control system can be used for safety and standard applications in all engineering sectors.

The base unit has a total of 20 safe inputs, up to eight of which can be configured as standard outputs. Also available are four safe semiconductor outputs and four safe test pulse outputs, up to four of which can be configured as standard outputs. Fewer unit types are needed as a result, enabling hardware and storage costs to be minimised.

The base unit can be expanded with a maximum of two I/O modules. These provide a total of 16 inputs and 8 semiconductor outputs. The new configurable control system is suitable for applications up to and including SIL CL 3 and PL e.
