Pilz PNOZmulti 2 Expansion Modules allow you to extend your safety controller exactly as needed, offering flexible combinations of I/O modules, motion monitoring modules, and link modules. With simple configuration in the PNOZmulti Configurator, these modules deliver cost-optimized, scalable safety solutions. From additional inputs to safe motion monitoring, each module enhances performance while keeping hardware investment low.
The PNOZmulti 2 small controller system is designed for maximum modularity, enabling users to expand their chosen base unit with a wide variety of extension modules. Depending on the safety and automation requirements, you can integrate I/O modules, motion monitoring modules, communication modules, or link modules — creating a customized system that fits your machine perfectly.
Using the PNOZmulti Configurator software, the hardware structure can be assembled and positioned with just a few clicks, simplifying project planning. New modules such as the input module PNOZ m ES 16DI offer 16 digital inputs for connecting pushbuttons and digital sensors, with support for up to six modules on a PNOZ m B1 base unit — delivering up to 96 digital inputs. Standard outputs can be managed through the PNOZ m ES 14DO module. Integrated diagnostics via PVIS reduce downtimes by offering precise fault messages and first-fault detection directly on screen.
For applications requiring safe monitoring of machine motion, the PNOZ m EF 1MM2DO module provides advanced motion safety functions. With two safe semiconductor outputs and a cascading interface, it monitors one axis with extremely fast response times (under 12 ms). The module supports incremental encoder connections via the robust Mini I/O interface and includes its own independent program (mIQ) for decentralized processing, enabling quick reactions and fine-tuned control.
Whether you need additional inputs, advanced motion control, or decentralized expansion in the field, the PNOZmulti 2 expansion modules offer a finely scalable, cost-effective approach to achieving comprehensive safety and automation on machines of any size.
