HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 982200425

Description

Product Overview

The HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 982200425 is a critical digital input/output (I/O) module for the HIMA F3 series, a compact and flexible safety controller system designed for machine safety applications. This specific module, identifiable by the assembly code 982200425, combines both safety-certified digital inputs and outputs in a single unit. Its primary function is to interface with safety devices in the field—such as emergency stop buttons, safety gates, and light curtains via its inputs—and to control safety actuators like contactors or solenoid locks via its outputs, all within a certified safety loop. For detailed technical manuals, safety certificates, and configuration guides, please refer to the official product resource: HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 982200425. The HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 module enables the construction of compact, cost-effective safety systems for individual machines or small production cells, providing up to Performance Level e (PL e) / Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL 3) protection.

Product Parameters and Specifications

• Function: Combined Digital Input and Output Module for HIMA F3 Safety Controller.
• Safety Standard: Compliant with IEC 62061 and ISO 13849-1, capable of achieving up to SIL 3 and Performance Level e (PL e).
• Architecture: Based on a 1oo2 (one-out-of-two) or similar high-integrity internal architecture with continuous diagnostics.
• Input Channels: Typically provides 8 safety-certified digital inputs. Inputs are designed for 24V DC signals from safety devices (e.g., with OSSD outputs from safety light curtains or dry contacts).
• Output Channels: Typically provides 4 or 8 safety-certified semiconductor outputs (e.g., short-circuit protected PMOS outputs) for directly controlling safety actuators. Outputs are often configured in cross-monitored pairs (e.g., two outputs control one contactor with feedback).
• Diagnostic Coverage (DC): High (DCavg). Features include input signal monitoring, output cross-circuit detection (XCR), short-circuit detection on outputs, and internal processor tests.
• Response Time: Very fast and deterministic response time, suitable for stopping dangerous machine motion quickly.
• Connection: Uses a removable front connector block or terminal base for efficient field wiring.
• Configuration: Configured via HIMA’s Safety Studio engineering software, where safety logic (e.g., dual-channel monitoring with start-up test) is programmed.

Advantages and Key Features

The HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 982200425 offers a key advantage of integration, combining both input and output functionality in a single module, which saves space and simplifies system design for compact safety applications. It provides high safety integrity with a dual-channel internal design and comprehensive diagnostics to detect dangerous failures. The module enables flexible and safe output configurations, such as using two outputs in a forced-guided relay-like configuration to safely control a single contactor with feedback monitoring. Its compact form factor is ideal for machine-mounted control cabinets. The module is fully integrated with the HIMA F3 controller and Safety Studio software, allowing for a unified engineering environment for configuration, simulation, and diagnostics. The use of a genuine HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 module ensures certified safety performance and full support from HIMA.

Application Cases in Industry

This module is primarily used in Machine Safety applications across all manufacturing sectors. In Press Brakes and Stamping Presses, it reads signals from two-hand controls and light curtains and controls the main power contactor. Within Robotic Work Cells, it interfaces with safety interlocks on fences and controls enabling circuits for the robot controller. For Packaging Machinery, the HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 monitors safety gate switches and initiates a safe stop of all drives. It is also common in Plastics Injection Molding machines for safeguarding the mold area and in Automated Assembly stations. Any stand-alone industrial machine requiring a dedicated, certified safety controller is a candidate for this I/O module.

Comparison with Competing Products

• vs. Safety Relays: Traditional safety relays are hardwired and less flexible. The HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 is part of a programmable safety controller, offering much greater logic flexibility, easier modification, better diagnostics, and data integration capabilities.
• vs. Safety I/O of Large Safety PLCs (e.g., Siemens ET200SP F, Pilz PSSuniversal): These are modular systems for larger-scale safety. The HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 is part of a more compact, all-in-one safety controller solution better suited for individual machines. It competes more directly with other compact safety controllers like the Sick Flexi Soft or Allen-Bradley Guardmaster Smart Guard.
• vs. Other HIMA I/O Modules: Within the F3 series, HIMA offers different I/O configurations (pure input, pure output, different counts). The DIO 88 01 is selected when a balanced mix of inputs and outputs is needed in one unit.

Selection Suggestions and Precautions

• Selection Advice:
  1. I/O Count Requirement: Verify that the number of safety inputs (e.g., for E-stops, gates, light curtains) and safety outputs (e.g., for contactors, safety relays) matches or is less than the capabilities of the HIMA F3 DIO 88 01 module.
  2. Controller Compatibility: Ensure this I/O module is used with a compatible HIMA F3 series base unit (CPU module).
  3. Output Type and Load: Confirm the output type (semiconductor) is suitable for your actuator (e.g., contactor coil). Check the output current rating to ensure it can drive the connected loads.
  4. Safety Function Design: The safety logic (e.g., dual-channel monitoring with start-up check) must be correctly programmed in Safety Studio. The hardware configuration must match the program.
• Important Precautions:
  1. Safety Lifecycle Compliance: The design, installation, and validation of the safety system using this module must follow a certified safety lifecycle process (e.g., according to ISO 13849) performed by qualified personnel.
  2. Wiring of Cross-Monitored Outputs: If using outputs in a cross-monitored configuration to control a single contactor, the wiring must follow the exact diagram provided in the manual to ensure the feedback loop works correctly for diagnostics.
  3. Use of Test Pulses: The module uses test pulses for diagnostics. Ensure connected field devices (especially inputs from safety sensors) are compatible with these test pulses to avoid malfunction.
  4. Validation and Testing: After installation and programming, the complete safety function must be validated and tested. This includes verifying that all inputs correctly trigger the safety function and that the outputs de-energize as expected. Documentation of this testing is mandatory.
