Load switching
The COMPLETE line system provides high-quality solutions for load switching and monitoring .
Compact and practically wear-free motor starters can switch loads over a much longer service life than electromechanical versions . Moreover , they can be be integrated into safety concepts and communication networks .
They switch motors and other loads reliably and safely ( Example 1 ).
This advanced technology also enables the acquisition of performance data . Here , the ability to detect over- and underload states enables preventive maintenance and the avoidance of mechanical damage to the loads ( Example 2 ).
The machine manager also reliably monitors high-performance consumers and transmits key parameters to higher-level networks ( Example 3 ).
