Mosaic safety integrate controller
Key features
Mosaic is a safety hub able to manage all safety functions of machinery.
Configurable and scalable, Mosaic provides cost reductions and minimal wiring.
The Mosaic M1S COM master unit integrates 2 RJ45 network connectors for connections to the field bus and / or to the network for remote control.
Mosaic can manage safety sensors and signals such as
Light curtains, photocells, laser scanners, emergency stops, electromechanical switches, guard-lock safety
door switches, magnetic switches, RFID switches, safety mats and edges, two-hands controls, hand grip
switches, encoders, proximities for safety speed control and analogue sensors (i.e. loading cells, pressure
switches, temperature measurement, flow and level measurement, etc.).

Mosaic Advantages
Compared to “traditional” electromechanical safety-relays-based safety circuitries, Mosaic has the following advantages
Project optimisation
- Reducing the number of devices and wiring used and, therefore, the overall size of the project
- Speeding-up control panel construction
- Possibility of remote control with the Mosaic M1S COM master unit
- Simply adding or removing safety function blocks at any stage of machine design
- Allows tamper-proof system configurations as:
detection of tempering attempts through specific tests (i.e. mandatory test of the safety device at machine start-up)
Protection against unauthorized changes to the project through a 2-level password - All logic is configured through a graphic interface. No more laborious wiring is needed as with traditional solutions
- A lower number of electromechanical components also means a better Performance Level and, therefore, a higher Safety Level
MSD software configuration
- Master units Mosaic M1, Mosaic M1S and Mosaic M1S COM are configurable via the MSD (Mosaic Safety Designer)
- MSD is a graphic interface configuration software (provided with each Master units at no extra cost)
- Providing logic configuration via a quick and easy-to-use software. Machine designers are always able to change configuration logic
- MSD is able to check the logic configuration of the application during the designing phase through the validation
- Function and Simulation as well as to test it during the installation through the monitor function
- The project report provides the actual values of PFHd, DCavg and MTTFd according to EN 13849-1 and EN 62061
