Command devices and hand controls

The steute range of human-machine interfaces includes both cabled and wireless command devices for different industrial applications. A further focus is on portable wireless hand controls with freely configurable buttons.

Wireless hand controls

Using the compact hand controls from steute, users can actuate four function buttons wthout the need for cables. Different sWave^® wireless technologies are optionally available, as well as a network-compatible version for sWave.NET^®. The range also includes wireless Andon buttons with an integrated display for use in eKanban systems and other applications.

Command devices for automation

Command devices from steute are used in control cabinets, control panels, two-hand control consoles and in lift constructions. Versions are available as push button, turning, key and standard emergency stop switches (EN 13850). The standard dimensions of the devices (installation diameter 22.5 mm; spacing 30 mm) facilitate universal use.

Wireless command devices

Simple mounting without any electrical installation: this is the benefit of wireless command devices which communicate with their corresponding machines by remote control. They do not require any batteries because the energy supply is self-sufficient, provided by a miniaturised electrodynamic energy generator.

Depending on the series, different wireless protocols are used. The devices can be integrated in the surrounding construction or inside housings – also part of the product range - which are fit for industrial use and big enough for up to three command devices.

Command devices for extreme applications

For adverse ambient conditions and explosive zones, robust command devices have been especially developed by steute. In addition to cabled products, wireless remote control command devices are also available, which communicate via the sWave^® wireless technology. This protocol has been certified for use in Ex zones.
