Description
Leuze MSI-MR Safety Relay
Product Dimensions:
The Leuze MSI-MR series refers to safety relays designed for monitoring safety-related circuits in industrial automation. Specifically, these modules are often used as extension modules (contact expansions) or safety relays for sensors like light curtains, E-stops, and safety switches.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the product in English.
## Product Description
The Leuze MSI-MR is a safety relay or contact extension module (depending on the specific model variant) used to multiply the number of safety-oriented switching outputs. It acts as an interface between safety sensors (like the Leuze MLC series light curtains) and the machine control system, ensuring that power is disconnected reliably in the event of a safety breach.
## Key Technical Parameters
While specific values can vary slightly between models (e.g., MSI-MR3 vs. others), common specifications include:
| Parameter | Typical Specification |
| Supply Voltage | 24 V DC (±20%) |
| Safety Contacts | Typically 3 NO (Normally Open) / 1 NC (Normally Closed) |
| Switching Voltage | Max 230 V AC / 24 V DC |
| Max Switching Current | Up to 6 A per contact |
| Response Time | < 20 ms |
| Safety Category | Up to Category 4 (EN ISO 13849-1) |
| Performance Level (PL) | Up to PLe |
| SIL | Up to SIL 3 (IEC 61508) |
| Housing Width | 22.5 mm (Standard DIN rail mounting) |
## Product Advantages
-
Space-Saving Design: Its slim 22.5 mm width allows for efficient use of space inside the electrical cabinet.
-
High Reliability: Certified for the highest safety levels (PLe, SIL 3), ensuring maximum protection for personnel and machinery.
-
Versatility: Compatible with a wide range of safety components, including E-stop buttons, safety hinges, and optoelectronic sensors.
-
Easy Diagnostics: LED indicators on the front panel provide instant status updates for “Power,” “K1/K2 state,” and “Errors.”
-
Plug-and-Play: Removable screw or spring-cage terminals (depending on the version) make replacement and wiring faster.
## Important Considerations (Safety Notes)
-
Correct Integration: The safety level of the entire system depends not just on the MSI-MR, but on the wiring of all connected components. Always perform a risk assessment.
-
External Fusing: Ensure that the safety contacts are protected with appropriate fuses to prevent contact welding in case of a short circuit.
-
Feedback Loop: For Category 4 applications, the EDM (External Device Monitoring) feedback loop must be correctly integrated into the reset logic.
-
Environmental Limits: Do not exceed the specified operating temperature and vibration limits, as this may shorten the lifespan of the mechanical relays.
## Typical Applications
-
Contact Expansion: Used when a safety sensor (like a light curtain) has OSSD outputs but you need to switch high-power AC loads or multiple independent circuits.
-
Emergency Stop Monitoring: Evaluating signals from E-stop palm buttons.
-
Safety Gate Monitoring: Working in tandem with magnetic or mechanical interlock switches.
-
Packaging and Logistics: Ensuring conveyor belts and palletizers stop instantly when a safety perimeter is breached.
