Why Choose the Lovato SRASM20 Safety Relay?
The Lovato SRASM20 is a compact single-function safety relay for OSSD devices with integrated safety functions, designed for reliable monitoring of safety-related circuits in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Lovato SRA safety relay series, it provides 2NO safety outputs and supports external device monitoring (EDM) for integration with compatible safety equipment.
The SRASM20 is specifically designed for safety devices equipped with OSSD (Output Signal Switching Device) outputs. These include compatible optoelectronic and electronic safety devices where the safety function is integrated into the protective device itself, allowing the relay to interface the OSSD signals with machine safety control circuits.
Operating from a nominal 24 V DC auxiliary supply, the SRASM20 uses two relay safety outputs with forcibly guided contacts. It is designed for safety applications up to Category 4 and Performance Level e (PLe) according to ISO 13849-1, making it suitable for demanding machine-safety installations.

Reliable Monitoring of OSSD Safety Devices
OSSD outputs are commonly provided by electronic protective equipment such as safety light curtains, laser scanners and RFID safety devices. The two-channel signals allow faults to be detected by the safety control system, helping ensure that hazardous machine functions are stopped when the protective device is actuated or a safety-related fault is detected.
The Lovato SRASM20 is dedicated to OSSD devices with integrated safety functions and provides two forcibly guided NO relay outputs for interfacing with downstream machine-control equipment. Its EDM functionality enables monitoring of external switching devices such as contactors as part of an appropriately designed safety-related control system.
