Safety products

Here you will find the complete safety offering of ABB. Machine safety as well as process safety, but also ABB’s view on Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) and Sustainability.

ABB is the only manufacturer who can supply the complete automation chain, including safety products and robots. And when using the safety stop or emergency stop inputs of a robot, these should be a part of the safety function together with e.g. Pluto and Eden.

More and more safety features are built into the drives that control our machinery. The Safe Torque Off (STO) of a drive often replaces contactors in a safety function.

Designed for machine safety applications, AFS contactors come with fixed front contact blocks (mechanically linked and mirror contacts) making them ideal for monitoring and controlling circuits.

The HF range of electronic compact starters are a compact alternative to contactors, and offers numerous additional features

AC500-S is a powerful safety PLC from ABB that is reliable, efficient and flexible. It's an ideal choice for both simple and complex functional safety applications like material handling (cranes, hoists, mobile platforms, distribution centers, harbors, airports, etc.), robotics, wind turbines and many more.

B&R is part of ABB and offers safety PLCs for processing lines or machines automated with B&R.
The very compact X20 system offers a wide range of different modules and is especially efficient to wire and maintain thanks to its 3-part modularity.

Limit switches are the easiest reliable way to convert mechanical movements into electrical signals.
