The ET 200S Safety Motor Starter Solutions are preferred in all production and process automation fields in which the enhancement of plant availability and flexibility plays a key role.

• Safety Motorstarters Solutions local are preferred from the safety engineering point of view for locally restricted safety applications. These motor starters are not dependent on a safe control system.
• Safety Motor Starter Solutions PROFIsafe are often found by contrast in safety applications of the more complex type that are interlinked. In this case a safe control system is used with the bus systems PROFINET or PROFIBUS with the PROFIsafe profile.

The ET 200S Solutions Safety motor starters comprise:

• Safety modules
• Standard motor starters or
• High-Feature motor starters or
• Failsafe motor starters

With the ET 200S Solutions safety motor starters there is no complicated and hence cost-intensive configuring and wiring compared to the conventional safety systems. The ET 200S Solutions safety motor starters are designed for Category 4 according to EN 954-1 or SIL 3 according to IEC 61508.

They enable the use of safety-oriented direct-on-line starters or reversing starters in the SIMATIC ET 200S distributed peripherals system on PROFINET or PROFIBUS. The fine modular architecture of the system enables optimum imaging of machine or plant applications.

Within an ET 200S station the Solutions safety motor starters can also be combined with Standard motor starters or High Feature motor starters without safety functions or the SIMATIC ET 200S FC frequency converters up to max. 4 kW up to Category 3 according to EN 954-1 or SIL 2 according to IEC 61508.
