Operation Elements PIToe

The compact control and signal devices are versatile to use when operating your plant, enabling you to switch and display digital inputs and outputs. It’s possible to select and display the operating mode, for example.

The operation elements are intended for 22.5 mm diameter mounting cutouts in accordance with EN 60947-5-1 with anti-rotation protection. As a result, they fit seamlessly into your plant and machine design and are ideal for installing or retrofitting into consoles, control panels or command panels.

New: Operation element PIToe USB – activatable USB interface for plant and machinery

The activatable USB 2.0 host interface on the PIToe USB enables tamper-proof import of programs and removal of data. A keyboard or mouse can also be connected. The USB port is activated via a 24 V signal; the “ready for operation” state is displayed via the LED ring.

In combination with PITreader, activation is only possible with the appropriate permission, enabling access only to authorised personnel. When not in use, a cover protects the compact, robust operation element to IP65.

The best gate safeguard or access control is worthless if unauthorized access to your machine is possible via the network. A holistic safety concept is required here, that takes both machinery safety and industrial security into account. Should any security gaps emerge, loss of quality and unplanned downtimes are two of the possible scenarios. So, it is all the more important to protect plant and machinery in such a way that only authorized personnel have access and tampering with the control systems via attacks from outside is prevented.
