NX-SL3500 Omron Switch Power Supply Plc Programming module Industrial Automation Controller

2. Key Selling Points

1. Integrated Safety & Standard Control:
   Enables safety logic and standard automation control to run simultaneously within the same controller (e.g., NJ/NX-series), eliminating the need for a separate safety PLC and reducing system complexity.

2. Supports up to SIL 3 and PL e / Category 4:
   Certified for use in safety applications up to IEC 61508 SIL 3, ISO 13849-1 PL e, and Category 4, ensuring compliance with global safety standards for high-risk machinery.

3. Real-Time Safety Communication via EtherCAT (FSoE):
   Utilizes Fail-Safe over EtherCAT (FSoE) protocol to communicate safely with NX-series safety I/O modules and other FSoE devices, enabling fast, secure, and synchronized safety data transmission.

4. Scalable Safety System Architecture:
   Supports connection to multiple NX safety I/O modules (e.g., NX-SI*, NX-SO*), allowing flexible expansion of safety inputs (E-Stop, light curtains, door switches) and outputs (safe shutdown, SS1, etc.).

5. Easy Configuration with Sysmac Studio:
   Safety programs are developed in Sysmac Studio using FBD (Function Block Diagram) or LD (Ladder Diagram), enabling seamless integration of safety logic with standard control programming in one unified environment.

6. Diagnostics & Event Logging for Safety Circuits:
   Provides detailed safety event logging, time-stamped diagnostics, and status monitoring, simplifying troubleshooting, validation, and compliance with safety audit requirements.
