Innovative Expertises
At the heart of the project is a range of expertises developed over years of industrial research and development. The product portfolio includes the revolutionary DECONTACTOR™—a socket with an integrated switch that merges the benefits of a classic power socket with the enhanced performance of a switch. This unique design not only allows for easy, safe connection and disconnection of devices under load (up to 250 A) without the need for additional pilot wires or switches but also guarantees unmatched safety. This innovative approach has revolutionized how devices are connected in demanding industrial settings. The expertises listed, such as robustness, waterproofing, electromagnetic compatibility, auto-ejection, antibacterial protection, ATEX, and the provision of auxiliary contacts and pilots, reflect a breadth of specialized knowledge that is second to none.
Robust Features and Safety
The safety and robustness of the electrical products are paramount. The DECONTACTOR™ boasts an unmatched safety level by incorporating a locked safety disk that prevents unintended contact with live parts—ensuring optimal user protection. Devices are engineered to perform in extreme conditions with waterproofing designs that forgo the need for a rotating ring, making them ideal for use in both production areas and outdoor environments. In addition, improved control and simplified lockout procedures ensure that maintenance is straightforward and effective, reducing the risk of accidents during operations. The careful design of these products is a testament to the commitment to high safety standards, and the subtle integration of advanced features ensures that operations remain smooth and uninterrupted, even during the most challenging tasks…
Technical Excellence
Technical excellence is embedded within every aspect of the project. The product lines include high current connectors that operate reliably from 16 A up to 1250 A and low current connectors with configurations ranging from 7 to 37 contacts. This range covers all types of environments and industry demands. Complementing these offerings are junction, derivation, and distribution boxes designed for maximum durability and efficiency. Features such as improved auto-ejection mechanisms and simplified lockout procedures enhance user safety during maintenance and operation. Additionally, the integration of cable glands and mobile applications makes it possible to monitor and control systems with ease and precision. This technical prowess is the backbone of a system that supports a vast spectrum of industrial applications, ensuring reliable and efficient electrical connections everywhere.
