Description

Application Scenarios​

A leading automotive assembly plant in North America faced challenges with outdated safety controls on its robotic welding lines.The plant’s existing safety relays lacked real-time communication,leading to delayed fault detection—resulting in 3 unplanned shutdowns monthly(each costing$20,000 in downtime)and non-compliance risks with OSHA safety standards.After deploying the Pilz 772136 PNOZ m ES EtherCAT,the plant achieved transformative improvements:the module’s EtherCAT connectivity enabled instant safety status updates to the central HMI,cutting fault diagnosis time from 2 hours to 15 minutes.Its SIL 3/PL e certification ensured compliance,while programmable safety functions(e.g.,emergency stop monitoring,door interlocks)reduced unplanned shutdowns to 0.5 per month.This directly solved the plant’s core pain points of slow fault response and safety non-compliance—critical for high-speed,high-risk automotive manufacturing.​

Technical Principles and Innovative Values​

Innovation Point 1:The Pilz 772136 PNOZ m ES EtherCAT integrates EtherCAT communication directly into a safety relay—eliminating the need for separate communication modules.This reduces hardware costs by 25%compared to traditional”safety relay+Ethernet gateway”setups.For example,in a packaging line with 10 safety nodes,the module’s built-in EtherCAT cuts component count by 10 units,simplifying wiring and reducing failure points.​

Innovation Point 2:Its flexible programming via Pilz PASwin software allows customization of safety functions without hardware changes.Unlike fixed-function safety relays,the 772136 PNOZ m ES EtherCAT can be reconfigured for new safety requirements(e.g.,adding a light curtain to a machine)in 30 minutes—saving 80%of the time needed to replace traditional relays.​

Innovation Point 3:Redundant safety logic and diagnostic capabilities exceed industry standards.The module performs continuous self-tests(e.g.,input/output circuit checks)and logs errors to the central system via EtherCAT.In a test scenario with a faulty door interlock,the 772136 PNOZ m ES EtherCAT detected the fault in 8 ms,shut down the machine,and transmitted the error code to the HMI—enabling technicians to resolve the issue 3x faster than with non-diagnostic relays.​

Application Cases and Industry Value​

A European logistics company operating a 24/7 automated conveyor system for parcel sorting faced safety risks from unguarded conveyor sections and slow emergency stop response.The company’s previous safety relays could not communicate with the conveyor’s PLC,leading to 2 near-miss incidents with workers and 4 hours of weekly unplanned downtime.After installing the Pilz 772136 PNOZ m ES EtherCAT:​

Safety:The module’s door interlock monitoring and fast E-STOP response(≤10 ms)eliminated near-miss incidents,ensuring compliance with EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.​

Efficiency:EtherCAT connectivity enabled real-time status updates to the conveyor PLC,reducing downtime from 4 hours/week to 30 minutes/week(a 92%improvement).​

Scalability:The module was easily reconfigured via PASwin software when the company added 5 new conveyor sections—no new hardware required,saving$15,000 in upgrade costs.​

Logistics managers noted the 772136 PNOZ m ES EtherCAT had“transformed safety and efficiency”by turning passive safety controls into an active,integrated part of the conveyor system.​

Installation,Maintenance,and Full-Cycle Support​

Installing the Pilz 772136 PNOZ m ES EtherCAT is designed for efficiency.First,mount the module on a 35 mm DIN rail in a control cabinet,ensuring a 5 mm gap between adjacent devices for heat dissipation.Connect the 24 V DC power supply(redundant power recommended for critical applications)and wire safety inputs(e.g.,E-STOP buttons,door switches)to the terminal block.For EtherCAT integration,use a shielded Ethernet cable to connect the module to the network—Pilz provides pinout diagrams and integration guides for common PLCs(e.g.,Siemens S7,Beckhoff CX).Before powering on,verify wiring with a multimeter to avoid short circuits,then use PASwin software to load the initial safety configuration.​

Maintenance for the 772136 PNOZ m ES EtherCAT is minimal.The module’s LED indicators provide at-a-glance status:green for power/normal operation,red for faults,and yellow for communication issues.Routine maintenance involves monthly visual inspections of wiring and cleaning of dust from the module(use a dry cloth).Annual functional tests—performed via PASwin software—verify safety circuit integrity without disconnecting wires.In case of a fault,the module logs detailed error codes(e.g.,“input short circuit”)to the central system,enabling technicians to resolve issues in an average of 15 minutes.​
