Why Choose the ABB Pluto B20 v2 Safety Controller?
The ABB Pluto B20 v2 (2TLA020070R4600) is a compact and powerful programmable safety controller (Safety PLC) designed for machine safety applications and the control of safety-related circuits. As part of the ABB Pluto safety PLC range, it combines configurable safety I/O, failsafe outputs and integrated Pluto safety bus communication for flexible industrial machine safety systems.
The Pluto B20 v2 provides 20 total I/O, comprising 8 dedicated failsafe inputs, 8 configurable failsafe inputs/non-failsafe outputs, 2 individually failsafe relay outputs and 2 individually failsafe transistor outputs. This flexible I/O architecture enables safety sensors, emergency stops, guard switches and other protective devices to be incorporated into programmable machine safety functions.
Operating from a 24 V DC supply, the Pluto B20 v2 can communicate through the Pluto safety bus and is programmed using ABB Pluto Manager software. Its compact 84 × 45 × 120 mm format and DIN-rail-oriented design make it well suited to safety control installations where panel space and flexible system integration are important.

Flexible Safety Control for Industrial Machinery
Programmable safety controllers such as the ABB Pluto B20 v2 allow multiple machine safety functions to be implemented within one programmable platform. Safety inputs can monitor protective devices while failsafe relay and transistor outputs provide controlled switching for safety-related machine functions, reducing the need for numerous individual safety relays in more complex installations.
The Pluto platform is designed for distributed machine safety and supports communication over the Pluto safety bus. Combined with ABB Pluto Manager programming software, this enables machine builders and automation engineers to configure application-specific safety logic and integrate multiple safety devices into coordinated industrial safety systems.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine safety control systems.
- Emergency stop monitoring and control.
- Safety door and guard monitoring.
- Light curtain and safety sensor applications.
- Conveyor and material handling safety systems.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Robotic and automated manufacturing cells.
