New safety relay module for potentially explosive areas

With the new PSR-MC35-EXI safety relay, Phoenix Contact is further expanding its safety portfolio. The product enables safe operation in demanding industrial environments. It was specifically developed for use in zone 2 potentially explosive areas. The device also has IECEx and ATEX approval and therefore meets international safety requirements.

The safety relay works reliably under challenging conditions. A coated PCB protects against corrosion. The extended temperature range up to +60°C allows for use in numerous process engineering applications. It is particularly worth noting that the connected equipment may even be used in zone 0 (gas) and zone 20 (dust).

The compact design saves space in the control cabinet. By using proven relay technology, the housing width is just 17.5 mm. At the same time, the relay meets safety requirements up to SIL 3 and PL e. For flexible installation requirements, the product is available with either screw or Push-in connection.
