Why Choose the ABB RT6 230AC 2TLA010026R0500 Safety Relay?

The ABB RT6 230AC 2TLA010026R0500 is a versatile universal machine safety relay designed for monitoring safety-related circuits in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the established ABB Jokab Safety RT Series, the RT6 supports multiple selectable input configurations for both single-channel and dual-channel safety devices, providing a flexible solution for machinery safeguarding.

This version operates from a 230 V AC, 50–60 Hz supply and provides 3 NO safety relay outputs and 1 NC information output. It also incorporates two short-circuit-protected transistor information outputs for signalling input and relay status to associated control or diagnostic systems.

The RT6 provides five selectable input options, automatic or manually supervised reset and a test input for monitoring external positively guided relays and contactors. With five LED indicators, quick-release terminal blocks and a compact 45 mm wide DIN rail housing, the relay is suitable for emergency stops, interlocking switches, light curtains, safety mats, contact strips and numerous other industrial safety applications.

Flexible Safety Monitoring for Industrial Machinery

The ABB RT6 provides configurable monitoring for a broad range of machinery safety devices. Its five selectable input arrangements allow it to supervise single-channel and dual-channel circuits, while appropriate configurations provide monitoring for short circuits and power failures. This versatility enables one relay type to support numerous machine-safety functions.

Automatic or manually supervised reset can be selected according to the application, while the test input enables external positively guided relays and contactors to be incorporated into the monitored safety circuit. The two transistor information outputs indicate input-condition and output-relay status, providing useful diagnostic information without using the primary safety contacts.

Typical Applications

• Emergency-stop safety circuits.
• Safety gate, hatch and interlocking switch monitoring.
• Light curtain and safety light-beam systems.
• Safety mats and pressure-sensitive contact strips.
• Hold-to-run and enabling devices.
• Foot-operated safety control devices.
• Machine area supervision.
• Safety output expansion systems.
• Industrial production machinery and automated equipment.
• Control panels requiring configurable single- or dual-channel safety monitoring.
