Welcome to the NEWSLETTER Issue 02-2010

Thursday, 18. November 2010



Ladies and Gentlemen,

At SPS/IPC/DRIVES, we will welcome you with a whole bunch of innovations: new products, new ideas, attractive services - for instance a brand-new series of compact safety controllers.

We will furthermore introduce our new branch-specific approach. For a number of industries of machinery and plant construction, amongst others the packaging technology and the food production industry, we have developed individual solutions to optimise the safety and the productivity. Not to miss!

This Newsletter will give you a preview of the innovations, which we will present at the fair. If we have aroused your curiosity and you want to find out more: visit us at Booth D 460, Hall 9.


Products

 

Especial recommended:

Safety Consulting: more service

    Optimally advised: our Safety Consulting advises you on all issues regarding machinery safety. The new offer, which we presented for the first time a year ago, is a big hit. Our certified Safety Consultants are active on our German homeland market, but in 20 countries from all over the world as well. We will introduce a new service to you at the Fair.  more
 
 

Especial flexible:

New compact safety controller

    With our new PROTECT SELECT compact safety controller, you maintain your flexibility whilst shortening the start-up times. To set the parameters, no particular knowledge is required and you do not need to know a programming language either. You simply choose function blocks from a library and the controller is ready for operation.  more
 
 

Especial adjusted:

New safety sensor with RFID technology

    With the new RSS 36 safety sensor, you determine the level of tampering protection: you can choose between different coding variants, which are realised through the integrated RFID technology. In this way, new technologies provides for new possibilities in machine safety!  more
 
 

Especial communicative:

New series with integrated ASi-Safety at Work interface

    Position switches with safety function, operating panels, pull-wire emergency stop switches, safety foot switches: we present you the new series of our ASi-Safety at Work programme with integrated interface for connection to this universal safety-related communication standard. These switching components simplify the installation and provide the machine user with additional diagnostic information.  more
 

Especial hygienic and rust-proof:

Magnetic safety switches in stainless steel enclosure

    The BNS 40S magnetic safety switch was especially developed for the food machinery construction industry: its design and the material choice meet the requirements of the "Hygienic Design". The sensors are resistant to cleaning agents and chemicals; with their protection class IP69K, they can be used in plants, which are cleaned by means of high-pressure cleaners.  more
 
 

Especial compact:

BDF 100 operating panel

    The BDF 100 operating panel is the latest member of our BDF family. The idea is simple yet persuasive: a standard-compliant emergency stop switch is placed into a slim, impact-proof enclosure, which can be quickly fitted with minimum space requirements onto the conventional profile systems. In this way, the emergency stop switch can be positioned where it belongs, i.e. directly on the safety guard, where the operator has the best overview on the process.  more
