Schneider Electric’s Wireless Pushbuttons and Limit Switches
Cut back on installation costs and time when you implement wireless pushbuttons and limit switches into your operations. These remote devices save you valuable space when you eliminate the need for excess cabling in your electrical cabinet.
Wireless Pushbuttons
Schneider Electric’s Harmony™ wireless, batteryless XB5R and XB4R pushbuttons offer seamless integration thanks to their open protocols with Modbus and Ethernet Modbus/TCP. By eliminating the need for batteries, installation becomes extremely flexible, allowing you to integrate the pushbuttons into a variety of industrial and building environments.
Wireless Limit Switches
Eliminate the risk of faulty wires by going wireless with your limit switches. Automation plants who have made the jump to wireless communications reported a 15% growth in their overall production efficiency. This can be attributed to the low maintenance of these limit switches and a reduction in cabling expenses.

GraceSense™ Hot Spot Monitor
Predict electrical failures before they happen with GraceSense’s Hot Spot Monitor(HSM). This monitoring and alarming device identify temperature anomalies in electrical connections to prevent unplanned plant outages and failures. By installing the Hot Spot Monitor inside your low voltage or control compartment, you provide another level of safety and reassurance to your equipment and plant production. This saves time and money when compared to plant shutdowns and equipment failures. Integrate the HSM device plant-wide using MODBUS TCP/IP or EtherNet/IP, making it easy to remotely monitor hot spots or other anomalies through a maintenance hub with system alerts.
Potential Applications to Utilize the Hot Spot Monitor:
-
- Low voltage/ medium voltage switchgear
- Low voltage/ medium voltage MCCs and Drives
- Motors, generators, and dry-type transformers
- Load break & transfer switches
- Bus Ducts and busbars connections
- DC switchgear/MCC/Drives
- Large UPS batteries and inverters
- High current junction boxes
Telemecanique’s RFID Sensor
With the XCSR contactless RFID safety sensor from Telemecanique, employers provide the highest level of safety-certified protection in dangerous work zones.
Each tamper-proof safety sensor is designed with a unique code, making it impossible to bypass or alter once put in place.
By offering three different connection types(standalone, series, and single), Telemecanique accommodates almost any industrial environment.
Standalone:
The standalone model safety sensor allows direct connection to contactors, integrating safety functions, such as monitoring of the contactors and manual or automatic start and restart functions.
Series:
The series model allows direct connection to a simple safety relay and series diagnosis through a diagnostic module with no programming software needed and already integrated M12 series connectors.
Single
The single model safety sensor allows point-to-point connections to a safety controller.
