CC-Link IE Safety Remote I/O Modules Discontinuation Notice

This technical bulletin announces the discontinuation of four CC-Link IE Field Network remote I/O module models (NZ2GFSS2-32D, NZ2GFSS2-16DTE, NZ2GFSS2-8D, NZ2GFSS2-8TE) due to updated IEC 61784-3 safety communication standards and the inability to renew TÜV certification for safety protocol version 1. It provides a discontinuation schedule (order acceptance until June 2027, production ends September 2027), recommends replacement with safety protocol version 2 successor models (suffix -S1), and outlines changes to the Declaration of Conformity from third-party certification to self-certification after September 2026.
