1. UE4215 for connection of electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE)
The UE4215 safe bus connection is a decentralized input slave for integrating safety components in the AS-interface Safety at Work safety bus system. Its enclosure rating of IP 67 allows installation without a control cabinet and the use of simple wiring technology. The module is installation-compatible with SICK's standard AS-interface products (series: Classic Line). The UE4215 safe bus connection is certified in compliance with EN 954 Category 4.

Examples of range of use
The following overview lists examples of several possible uses of the safe bus node UE4215 in connection with various safety components:

 

• Hazardous point protection (e.g. with SICK C4000)
• Access protection with and without muting (e.g. with SICK MSL, if the restart interlock on the protective device is used)
• Hazardous point protection and access protection (e.g. with SICK C2000/M2000)
• Area protection (e.g. with SICK PLS, S3000)
• Connection of interface components in the SICK Intelliface module series UE100

2. UE3212 for connection of Sensors fitted with contacts
The UE3212 safe bus connection is a decentralized input slave for integrating safety components in the AS-Interface Safety-at-Work safety bus system. Its enclosure rating of IP 65 allows installation without a control cabinet and the use of simple wiring technology.
SICK AS-interface Safety-at-Work components are compatible with the installation of AS-interface standard devices such as SICK Classic Line AS-interface modules.
The UE3212 safety slave bus node satisfies the requirements associated with Category 3 applications, in accordance with EN954-1.

Special features

Connection of one or two positively driven safety contacts; the switching contacts must be designed as normally closed contacts
For field use IP 65
AS-Interface version 2.1

Examples of range of use
The following overview lists examples of several possible uses of the safe bus node UE3212 in connection with various safety components.

 

• Connection of position switches (e.g. SICK i10 P, i10R, i100P, i100R)
• Connection of switches with separate actuator (e.g. SICK i12, i16, i17, i110S)
• Connection of emergency stop buttons and rope switches (e.g. SICK i110RP)

3. The UE4231/ UE4232 Safety Monitor for safety-oriented evaluation of sensor signals in AS-interface networks.
The AS-interface Safety-at-Work Safety Monitor UE4231/4232 is used in connection with other AS-interface Safety-at-Work components for hazardous area protection and access protection against the dangerous motion of a machine or equipment. The Safety Monitor may only be used in conjunction with an AS-interface Safety-at-Work network and is used to monitor its assigned safety slave bus nodes.
 

• The UE4231 Safety Monitor provides one dual-channel safe switching output.
• The UE4232 Safety Monitor provides two dual-channel safe switching outputs.
• The AS-interface Safety-at-Work Safety Monitor UE4231/4232 can monitor up to 31 safety AS-interface Safety-at-Work slaves.

A variety of applications can be successfully implemented using SICK AS-interface Safety-at-Work components and ASiMON software for configuration of the AS-interface Safety-at-Work components.
