In this article, we unpack industrial generators by giving an overview of their components, benefits, power requirements, and selection & sizing criteria. Industrial Generators An industrial generator is a versatile and robust piece of equipment that is recommended for several types of industries. During a power failure, generators can be relied upon to provide electricity, even for demanding applications across all sectors. Industrial generators are designed and manufactured to operate as a continuous power source in the absence of power, or in less-than-ideal conditions. What are the ma...

On machines or in automated processes, signal towers are important visual aids for controlling complex processes. In emergency situations, they serve as visual or acoustic warning devices. They can be flexibly designed with continuous, flashing, strobe and all-round light as well as acoustic elements. Whether in modular or compact design - they are easy to install and extremely resistant to shock and vibration. Optional communication options with AS-Interface or IO-Link enable digital connection and diagnostics. Thanks to their professional signaling technology, the SIRIUS signaling columns e...
