Description
The Alpha Pendant Control Station
is a control device for all
industrial machinery. It operates
as an auxiliary controller of
electrical motors through a
power interface, such as a contactor
or PLC. Designed for heavy duty,
Alpha is aimed specifically
for the industrial market. It
is available with 2 to 13 buttons
arranged on a double row to
allow for pairing of opposite
functions and reducing overall
dimensions. Alpha has an innovative
design, where all graphic elements
are linked to specific technical
functions. Size and shape, resulting
from a thorough analysis of
the ergonomic features of the
product, combined with the research
of a graphic style suitable
for a modern industrial environment,
make Alpha easy to operate.
Alpha has been designed to facilitate
wiring and maintenance, thus
reducing time for the first
installation and saving on costs.
Materials and components are
wear resistant and protect the
equipment against water and
dust. Alpha can be customised
with labels and colours according
to the customer’s requirements.
The pendant station has an angle
of inclination which allows
the best view of all control
elements, allowing the operator
to work in a natural and non-tiring
position. It is ideal for all
environmental and working conditions
due to the extremely reduced
overall dimensions and the antislip
lines on the enclosure.
The space available for the
conductors is dimensioned for
a 48 x 1.5 mm2 or 30 x 2.5 mm2
cable. All switches have terminals
facing the cable clamp of the
pendant station and screws on
the opposite side to facilitate
wiring. All electric connections
use screw-type terminals.
The emergency stop mushroom
pushbutton complies with the
EN 418 standard and it is equipped
with positive opening NC switches.
