A solid state relay is a relay with isolated input and output, whose functions are achieved by means of electronic components without the use of moving parts such as those found in electromechanical relays. These relays are ideal for applications with many contact closures since solid state relays offer a greatly extended life compared to electromechanical relays.

For years the cost and size of safety PLCs have been too big for the application requirements of production machinery. Siemens Energy and Automation changes all that with a Safety PLC extension to their standard controllers. This gives the user one right-sized controller that performs both safety-related and standard automation tasks.
