The New WAGO I/O System Field (IP67) for Future-Proof Automation of Modular Machines

The New WAGO I/O System Field (IP67) for Future-Proof Automation of Modular Machines

Modern, decentralized production facilities require automation solutions that ensure the highest level of connectivity, while providing maximum performance outside of the control cabinet. WAGO developed its I/O System Field with IP67 protection to meet these needs today and tomorrow by being upgradable: “I/O System Field combines speed with ETHERNET-based fieldbuses (e.g., PROFINET), technologies such as OPC UA or Webserver and, in the future, MQTT as a communication protocol, for cloud connectivity,” says WAGO automation expert Ludwig Adelmann.

 

 

 

nVent: Latch Kit for One-Door Type 12 Enclosures

nVent: Latch Kit for One-Door Type 12 Enclosures

Designed for field installation on most standard one-door Type 12 enclosures. These latch kits will not fit Hoffman disconnect, Concept or ProLine enclosures. Each kit includes a handle, latch, latch rods, adjustable rod guides and all hardware. The latch rods can be adjusted to maintain the proper gasket compression by relocating the pins in the rod guides. When the pin is removed, the latch rod can also be removed.
