SICK FX3 Series Safety Controller, 96 Safety Inputs, 48 Safety Outputs - FX3-CPU000000


This safety controller is a compact, DIN-rail mounted device designed to supervise and manage machine safety functions within industrial automation systems. It operates on a 24V supply and integrates with a programmable safety system to process high-density safety I/O for complex machinery. The unit suits environments requiring category 4 safety performance and supports configuration and diagnostics via an RS-232 interface.

Features & Benefits


• 96 safety inputs enabling extensive sensor coverage for large machines
• 48 safety outputs providing numerous controlled stop or safe-state actions
• Category 4 performance delivering the highest architectural safety level
• 24V DC operation with 4A supply-current limitation ensuring predictable power design
• Spring-terminal connections allowing secure, tool-free wiring retention

Applications


• Suitable for safeguarding multi-axis robotic workcells with many sensors
• Ideal for central safety logic in automated production lines
• Used with safety gate and light curtain networks requiring many inputs
• Can be used for coordinated emergency-stop handling across plant zones

What environmental conditions can it tolerate in operation?


It is specified for operation between −25°C to +55°C and for non-condensing humidity of 10%–95% while housed in an IP20 enclosure.

How is configuration and offline access achieved?


Configuration and diagnostics are provided through an RS-232 M8 female connector, 4-pin Interface for connection to programming tools.

What mechanical mounting and form factor should planners allow for?


The unit mounts to a standard DIN rail and has a narrow module width suitable for Compact control cabinets.

How is system configuration preserved and powered within the safety system?


System configuration and central supply functions require a separately ordered system plug which also services system-level storage and power distribution.

What protection class and electrical categories are relevant for installation planning?


The device conforms to protection class III and overvoltage category II, with switch-on times up to 18s to consider during power sequencing.

Note

The system memory plug (FX3-MPL) is sold separately
