Small control system
SAFELINE VARIO
You need a holistic safety solution with a multitude of inputs to monitor safety functions such as emergency stop, light curtains and safety gates? Then we have the perfect solution for you: SAFELINE VARIO is the compact safety control system from DINA that monitors everything with maximum safety up to Performance Level e or SIL CL 3.
With up to 30 inputs, SAFELINE VARIO is perfect for large machines of all kinds. Fully expandable to up to 15 add-on modules for functional safety applications, the compact safety control is the ideal solution for all safety issues. Whether standstill, position, direction, brake or, above all, speed monitoring, SAFELINE VARIO can handle it all.
In addition, a free, easy-to-use parameterisation software is included with every purchase, with which you can easily manage your safety applications. SAFELINE VARIO is compatible with the controls and safety systems of the most common manufacturers.

Machine safety. Without compromise.
SAFELINE VARIO is the most versatile and at the same time most compact safety compact control currently available on the market. With a width of only 45/67.5mm (central module), the multitude of applications in such a small space is unique.
The module is available in different versions, among others with integrated speed monitoring and state-of-the-art comparator function.
Another advantage compared to conventional safety solutions is the independence that comes with our products. SAFELINE VARIO can be connected to all common machine controls and safety components, regardless of the supplier. We do not tie you down in any system, but make what you need possible.
