IP65 Safety Relay and Safe Coupling Relay

What is an IP65 safety relay?

The IP65-protected safety and coupling relay combines personal and plant protection in a robust housing. It monitors safety components such as emergency stop buttons or light barriers, immediately shuts down the machine in the event of a fault, and at the same time serves as galvanic isolation between the control and load circuits. In doing so, it amplifies signals and protects the control system from electrical load influences.

What are the features and functions of an IP65 safety relay?

  • Highest degree of protection (IP65): Thanks to its classification, the device is completely dustproof (digit 6) and protected against water jets from any angle (digit 5).
  • Decentralized installation: Since the devices are waterproof and dustproof, no control cabinet is required. They can be mounted directly on the machine at the point of use, which significantly minimizes the amount of cabling required.
  • Ideal for retrofitting: Their robust design makes them the perfect solution for modernizing existing systems or for use in particularly harsh environments.
  • Tested safety: All devices are certified by TÜV Rheinland in accordance with current safety standards.

hat are the areas of application for IP65 safety relays?

  • Harsh industrial environments: The device is used in areas with high dust exposure or water jets, where protection against moisture and dirt is essential.
  • Decentralized system concepts: It can be mounted directly on the machine without a control cabinet, which significantly reduces the amount of cabling required for large-scale systems.
  • Firing systems and thermal processes: By meeting specific standards such as EN 50156-1, it is specialized for use in industrial furnaces and thermal process technologies.
  • Modernization and retrofitting: The robust design allows for easy retrofitting of safety functions to existing systems, even if there is no more space in the existing control cabinet.
  • Safety-critical monitoring: It is used to safeguard components such as emergency stop switches or light barriers in order to immediately protect people and machines in the event of a fault.

Discover the TETHYS IP65 family - the perfect solution for decentralised applications in demanding environments!

Based on our tried-and-tested safety relays from the SR family, which have been in use worldwide for decades, the devices impress with their robust design. Thanks to their IP65 water and dust tightness, they do not require a control cabinet and can be installed directly on the machine.

Ideal for harsh environmental conditions, retrofitting and applications where cabling needs to be minimised. Naturally, all devices in the TETHYS IP65 safety relay family are certified by TÜV Rheinland in accordance with the latest safety standards and also for use in combustion plants in accordance with EN 50156-1 and EN ISO 13577-4 .
