MGB2 Modular - the next generation MGB

The new MGB2 represents the logical further development of the globally successful Multifunctional Gate Box MGB. A revised design, new and extended functions, as well as a modular layout offer maximum flexibility and cost-effectiveness. The MGB2 is more than just pure safety door protection. It makes it possible to integrate into one device all the relevant functions related to the safety door. The MGB2 is suitable for both hinged and sliding doors.

Straightforward connection concept - standard cables suffice

In the Modular version, the MGB2 is connected to PROFINET/PROFIsafe via a bus module MBM. This module can either be connected directly to the MGB2 or, if space is tight, it can be mounted remotely. If the bus module is mounted remotely, as many as six MGB2 Modular can be connected to one MBM. The connection is made using standard M12 cables. You can identify Modular devices with compatible connections based on the letters MLI in the item designation. They have a corresponding M12 mating connector (MLI module plug connector). Thanks to the modular design, the MGB2 Modular can be variably equipped with different functions. The MGB2 Modular offers space for two submodules, each with up to three different control elements. The bus module MBM is available in two different versions; these two versions differ in the connection for Profinet. An AIDA-compliant solution with RJ45 plug connectors and a solution with D-coded M12 connection are available. A common feature of both is the integrated PROFINET switch.

Proven technology enriched with innovations

Like its successful predecessor model, the MGB2 is equipped with a very robust, industrial housing and has an integrated metal door stop, as well as an integrated mounting plate. It can be mounted on doors hinged on the left and right, as well as on sliding doors. Changeover is performed during mounting. The locking force of 2,000 N effectively prevents unintentional opening of the guard. The MGB2 Modular meets the requirements of all relevant standards, e.g. EN ISO 13849‑1 and EN ISO 14119. All screws are equipped with the same Torx-T10 drive so that a single tool is sufficient. These and many other minor improvements in the housing design ease mounting and the connection of the individual system components.

Guard locking types

L1 closed-circuit current principle

• Guard locking by spring force.
• Release by applying voltage to the guard locking solenoid.

L2 open-circuit current principle

• Guard locking by solenoid force.
• Activation of the guard locking by applying voltage to the guard locking solenoid.

PROFINET interface

The bus module MBM is available with one of the following PROFINET connections:
Plug connector M12, D-coded (7/8” plug and M12 plug (D-coded)) according to IEC 61076-2-101). Plug connector RJ45, AIDA compliant (push-pull plug according to IEC 61076‑3‑117, variant 14)

PROFINET switch

Linear topology network structure due to integrated switch (supports MRP).

Flexible use as interlocking or guard locking

By means of the corresponding evaluation of the safe device data by the control system, use can be as either interlocking or guard locking (with or without monitoring).

Lens set

The color of the pushbuttons can be selected using the lens set 120344 included (5 colors).
