Ideally suited to extreme conditions

High or low temperatures, humidity, vibrations, dust, risk of explosion: where other switching devices fail to keep up, the switches in our »Extreme« business unit are just getting started. They have been designed from scratch for Extreme application fields such as:

• hazardous (dust)-explosive zones (processing and transportation of powdered materials)
• subzero storage
• temperature-controlled manufacturing processes
• hygiene-compatible production and packaging
• wet areas, e.g. bottling and filling.

Tests under extreme conditions

Our switching devices are comprehensively tested – during the design process for continual optimisation, but also during serial production in order to meet the highest quality standards at all times. Here we provide a small insight into our test laboratories and testing parameters.

Temperature stability

Whether freeze-drying, cooking, pasteurising or homogenising: many food production processes need to be temperature-controlled. We guarantee that our switching devices are always suitable for the temperature range in question – for example by including devices for both very high and very low temperatures in our product range.
