FAQ

The PST 4 is an older generation safety relay. While both monitor safety functions, the PNOZ X3 offers enhanced diagnostics via LEDs, is more compact, and meets newer safety standards. However, the PST 4 is a direct replacement for existing systems without needing rewiring or reprogramming.

The Pilz PST 4 is primarily designed for E-STOP and safety gate monitoring. For two-hand control applications, you should use a dedicated two-hand control relay, such as a Pilz P2HZ model, which meets the specific requirements of EN 574/ISO 13851.

This is a German abbreviation for the contact configuration. "6S" stands for 6 "Schliesser" (Normally Open safety contacts), and "4O" stands for 4 "Oeffner" (Normally Closed auxiliary contacts). This corresponds to 6 NO / 4 NC in English terminology.
