Network Enabled Control Stations and Distributed I/O with CIP Safety / PROFIsafe (Die-Cast)

Engineered in die-cast metal, the NET-BOX is a versatile, network-enabled pushbutton control station and distributed I/O solution that integrates seamlessly into industrial networks using PROFINET PROFIsafe or EtherNET/IP CIP Safety. For applications demanding both durability and lightweight construction, the plastic version delivers robust performance in diverse industrial settings. Its configurable top connector plate accommodates up to four M12 5-PIN or 8-PIN connectors, allowing for straightforward integration of devices such as light curtains, enabling pendants, safety switches, and proximity sensors into one cohesive system.

Additionally, the NET-BOX offers extensive customization options through the selection of up to six pilot devices on the lid, including indicator lamps, illuminated pushbuttons, and selector switches, ensuring a tailored solution for specific operational requirements. By leveraging industrial Ethernet for real-time data exchange and centralized monitoring, the system minimizes wiring and installation efforts while enhancing uptime and reliability. This streamlined design not only boosts productivity but also simplifies maintenance, providing a cost-effective and safe control solution.

Independent testing and certification by TÜV and cULus confirm that the NET-BOX meets the highest standards of safety and reliability, making it a trusted choice for rigorous industrial applications.
