Functional Safety with the WAGO I/O System 750
The WAGO I/O System 750 is distinguished by its universal use and extensive product portfolio. With more than 500 different modules, the I/O System 750 offers superior versatility and flexibility. WAGO also provides a wide range of products for functionally safe applications with analog and digital signals.
With their compact design, the functionally safe modules of the WAGO I/O System 750 need little space and offer a high signal density in a small footprint. Thanks to its flexible design, the system integrates different standard Ex i and PROFIsafe technologies in one setup. The color coding clearly identifies each technology.
PROFIsafe
The PROFIsafe modules offer simple diagnostic and service options. The system relies on standard diagnostics according to the PROFIBUS® and PROFINET® specifications. Using offline parameterization via GSD or iPar server technology, device replacement is easy and requires no tooling. These modules support safety functions up to SIL 3 and PLe/Cat. 4; they also fulfill the EN IEC 13849 and EN ISO 62061 safety standards. Furthermore, the modules can be used in safety applications for the process industry per IEC 61511.
WAGO's safety products allow customers to implement safety applications from SIL 2 / Cat. 2 PL d to SIL 3 / Cat. 4 PL e!

Offline parameterization via GSD in PROFINET®
Offline parameterization allows you to parameterize your safety modules using the device description in PROFINET®. This lets you easily create your safety application offline and duplicate it on similar machines.
When restarting the application, the offline parameters automatically transfer to the modules. This makes device replacement possible at any time, even without tooling!
The “Tool Calling Interface” (TCI) is a standard interface for the PROFIBUS® and PROFINET® user organizations. It provides direct access to the product’s parameterization from the engineering system. TCI also allows an existing control system’s communication structures to be used.
Offline parameterization via GSD allows the creation of the system configuration on a desktop.

New Products
New Functions for the Safety Modules
- Offline parameterization in PROFINET®
- PROFIsafe V2.6 in PROFINET®
- Additionally PROFIsafe V2.4 in PROFINET® and PROFIBUS DP
- Channel-by-channel passivation in both PROFIsafe V2.4 and V2.6
The WAGO I/O System 750's safety modules meet the requirements of the latest PROFIsafe industrial Ethernet standard version 2.6, along with those of version 2.4. Configuration and parameterization of the modules are now also possible offline in PROFINET®.

Safety applications up to SIL 3 and PLe/Cat. 4 are much easier and faster to implement.
The safety modules meet the EN IEC 13849 and EN ISO 62061 safety standards and can be used in safety applications for the process industry per IEC 61511. The modules are available in different combinations of inputs and outputs with four or eight channels and fit seamlessly into the WAGO I/O System 750. The engineering can also be handled with the usual tools.
Your Benefits:
- Faster commissioning through offline parameterization via GSD
- Easy, tool-free module replacement
- Safe channel-specific acknowledgment
- Channel status in the cyclic process image

Customer Applications
The Galvanizer – Protection against Corrosion
Zinc helps extend the life of metal products enormously. It reliably protects steel from corrosion – galvanized components don’t rust, because zinc and iron form an inseparable bond – the ferrozinc alloy. However, this method employs poisonous and potentially explosive gas atmospheres at high temperatures. Therefore, it requires a quite sophisticated process control system to guarantee safety. The task of constantly refining these systems falls to Surtec Research and their hot-dip simulators. The engineers from Falk Steuerungssysteme GmbH use the compact, highly integrated WAGO 750 I/O SYSTEM in the automation systems for the simulators.
Faster Modular Device Adaptation
The PROFINET IO Fieldbus Coupler from WAGO can save you a lot of time when engineering and configuring your devices. By using the variable peripheral configuration function – an innovative approach to handling options – you can program software once and then implement different variants with minimal effort.
