Course Overview

The Safety Relays and Devices Maintenance and Troubleshooting (SAF-COM101) course by Rockwell Automation is designed for maintenance technicians, controls engineers, and industrial electricians responsible for ensuring machine safety in manufacturing environments. This two-day instructor-led program equips professionals with the skills to maintain and troubleshoot relay-based functional safety systems in compliance with industry standards. With 87% of industrial facilities globally adopting safety relays as part of their machinery protection strategy, demand for certified personnel who can interpret faults and ensure operational safety continues to grow. The course specifically prepares learners to work confidently with critical safety components and respond effectively to system failures.

Participants gain hands-on experience using a Safety Components workstation (ABT-TDSAFCOMP), where they configure, test, and troubleshoot real-world safety circuits. The curriculum covers key devices including monitoring safety relays, E-stop pushbuttons, grip enabling switches, electromechanical and non-contact RFID interlocks, light curtains, safety sensors, and safety mats. Through guided lab exercises from the official SAF-COM101 Lab Book, students learn to interpret electrical schematics, isolate wiring faults, and clear errors at both device and relay levels. A key practical scenario involves diagnosing a failed light curtain integration and restoring safe operation using systematic troubleshooting techniques reinforced by a built-in flowchart for on-the-job application.

Upon completion, attendees are fully prepared to support Rockwell Automation safety systems in industrial settings, enhancing workplace compliance and reducing downtime. While no formal certification exam is tied directly to SAF-COM101, the training contributes to broader Rockwell Automation certification pathways recognized across automation industries. Graduates report an average 20% increase in troubleshooting efficiency, with maintenance roles commanding salaries between $65,000 and $85,000 annually in North America. Koenig Solutions delivers this official Rockwell Automation course with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling, 1-on-1 instructor support, and access to authentic courseware, ensuring learners master the competencies needed to advance in industrial safety and controls careers.
