The Weidmüller range of Terminals are familiar to most customers and the Weidmüller Power Supply range including Pro Eco and Pro Max are becoming increasingly popular with many customers. However, some products may be less familiar. Solutions such as unmanaged & managed industrial ethernet switches (available in both copper and fiber variants), along with our industrial routers and wireless/ bridge access points . These along with an overview of our Surge Protection and Rock Star*Heavy Duty Connectors can all been seen and explained in your office or viewing our display for yourself. The more familiar Klippon® Connect range allows for complex wiring projects in confined spaces, including central potential distribution with direct wiring options for all the device's plus and minus potentials. This means that Klippon® Connect makes planning and implementing your control voltage distribution system considerably more productive. You can also benefit from increased wiring density with more potentials on a single modular terminal block, saving space, and also reducing the time required to assemble the terminal block.
