Multifunctional Gate Box

The MGB is a safety system with guard locking and guard lock monitoring for the protection of safety doors on machines and installations.

Economical, standard-compliant wiring

The family MGB-AP is particularly suitable for the protection of individual safety doors. If series connection is not necessary, wiring can then be saved. This version has different timing to the AR version.
All devices in the family MGB-AR can be wired directly in series in a so-called AR series connection without reducing safety or the PL. As a consequence evaluation units are saved.
AR devices are also available in the EUCHNER series CES and CET.

Seamless integration by means of bus connection

In the PROFINET version, MGB-PN, we now also make the wiring easier for you. You define which element is to be integrated and the related function. The MGB supplies the protocol frame with the necessary PROFINET input and output bytes required. Comprehensive diagnostic information in the form of PROFINET messages makes troubleshooting quick and specific. Due to the typical ease with which parameters can be set in PROFINET, even the replacement of the system in case of servicing is a simple matter and can be undertaken in a few minutes.

In the MGB Ethernet/IP™ version, we now also make the wiring easier for you. You define which element is to be integrated and the related function. The MGB supplies the protocol frame with the necessary CIP Safety input and output bytes required. Whether interlocking, guard locking, escape release or other functions such as buttons for start/stop, emergency stop, selector switch, etc. – the MGB meets all requirements for safety-related applications and can be equipped on a customer-specific basis. Comprehensive diagnostic information in the form of Ethernet/IP™ messages provides a fast and detailed overview of the device status. Due to the ease with which parameters can be set, even replacing the system during servicing is a simple matter and takes no more than a few minutes.
