Safety Mats & Area Guarding MC Controllers MC MC, MC and MC Series Safety Mat Controllers The MC Series safety mat controllers are used in conjunction with a four-wire, normally open, safety mat where perimeter guarding is required. These control reliable controllers send a stop signal to the guarded machine when an object of sufficient weight is detected on the active mat area. The MC Series controllers, when combined with a four-wire UM or UMQ series mat, provide access guarding and improved productivity. The work area is fully visible and accessible. The controller meets the requirement of EN 0-:998, EN 9, ANSI/RIA.0-999, ANSI B.9-00, OSHA 90-C. CSA and UL08. MC Universal power input Up to mat zone inputs Six mat zone status indicator LEDs Select from Automatic Start, Start/Restart Interlock or Start Interlock operating modes MPCE monitoring Remote access to reset functions -digit numeric display for fault diagnostics Surface mount, lockable metal enclosure Options Lid-mounted reset key switch Quick disconnect for incoming power and relay outputs Quick disconnects up to mat zone inputs Solid-state safety output module Safety relay output module C US Description MC The MC DIN mount controller may be used in applications that do not require the feature set of the MC controller. The MC single zone mat controller has removable terminal blocks and operates only on VDC. MC The MC is a NEMA, rated single zone mat controller. This controller may be used in applications when the diagnostic features of the MC may not be required. The MC may be ordered in either VDC or the universal auto-selecting power supply for 00-0 VAC. MC The MC is a NEMA, controller with six individual mat zone indicators and is designed to be backward compatible with the MC. Both units are dimensionally identical. This is where the similarities stop: The MC has full featured diagnostics with a VDC and an optional universal power supply (00-0 VAC autoselecting). It is a controller that can be used anywhere in the world. Additional Guarding Requirements A safety mat system is often only one part of a machine guarding solution. If the safety mat does not protect all access to the point of operation, additional guarding must be used. Safety mat systems should only be used to detect the presence, not the absence, of a force. Perimeter Guarding Requirements or perimeter guarding installations, the guarded machine or robot controller must be wired such that any stop signal generated by the safety mat system will cause an immediate stop of the hazardous motion. The machine or robot must only be restarted by the actuation of a manual reset switch. This reset switch must be located outside the area of hazardous motion and positioned such that the hazardous area can be observed by the switch operator. The purpose of this arrangement is to prevent a machine or robot from automatically restarting once the sensing weight is no longer detected by the safety mat sensing area.

Safety Standards and Precautions A Safety Mat controller is a general purpose, safety mat control device and is not designed for any specific type, model or brand of machine. All safety-related functions of the guarded machine controls including pneumatic, electric, logic or hydraulic controls must be control reliable. A Safety Mat controller when combined with a four-wire safety mat meets ANSI/RIA R.0-999, ANSI B.9-00 and the following applicable OSHA standards. When used with mechanical power presses, OSHA standard 90.(c) applies. or other applications the requirements of section 90. apply. Only use a Safety Mat controller and four-wire safety mat system on machinery that stops consistently and immediately anywhere in its cycle or stroke. Never use a Safety Mat controller and four-wire safety mat system on a full-revolution clutched press or machine. Access to the point of operation or hazardous machine area not protected by the Safety Mat controller and four-wire safety mat system must be guarded by fencing, barriers or other appropriate methods. The purchaser, installer and employer are responsible for meeting all local state and federal government laws, rules, codes or regulations relating to the proper use, installation, operation and maintenance of this control and the guarded machine. See Installation and Operation Manual for details. All application examples described are for illustration purposes only. Actual installations may differ from those indicated.
