Technical Overview

The Omron DST1-MD16SL-1 is a highly reliable DeviceNet Safety I/O Terminal designed for distributed industrial safety applications. It is equipped with 8 PNP sinking safety inputs, 8 PNP sourcing semiconductor safety outputs, and 4 test outputs. Functioning seamlessly as a safety slave unit, it allows monitoring from Standard Controllers across the network. Certified to meet rigorous safety standards such as EN954-1 (Cat. 4), ISO13849-1 (PLe), and IEC 61508 SIL3, this module ensures high-speed, fail-safe processing in automated cells. It operates on a nominal 24 VDC system and uses a standard 35-mm DIN Track mounting configuration.

Key Features

  • 8 PNP sinking safety inputs (11 VDC min. ON voltage) and 8 PNP sourcing safety outputs (0.5 A max. per output) [1.1].
  • 4 PNP sourcing test outputs for advanced diagnostics and safety component testing.
  • Compliant with major global safety standards including EN ISO 13849-1 (PLe) and IEC 61508 (SIL3).
  • Supports 35-mm DIN rail mounting for quick integration into standard industrial control panels.
  • Robust environmental tolerance with an operating temperature range of -10 to 55 Degrees Celsius and IP20 protection rating.

Requires a 20.4 to 26.4 VDC (24 VDC nominal) I/O power supply and an 11 to 25 VDC communications power supply.
