With PITmode fusion, Pilz now offers a modular operating mode selection and access permission system. The modular system is characterized by more flexibility for functionally safe operating mode selection and for the control of access permissions to plant and machinery. This way, PITmode fusion enables efficient operation mode selection and access permission management that covers both safety and security specifications.

A wide range of designs and sizes for virtually every industrial application. Hammond keeps a deep inventory of hinged cover, clamp cover and screw cover designs with most models including a interior mounting panel. For harsher environments needing corrosion protection, Hammond also offers stainless steel and aluminum versions.

For automation architects, the term modular is most often associated with a modern approach to industrial enclosure design and engineering, while the classification of unibody conjures up ideas of legacy enclosures that lack the ability to keep pace with the variant-rich nature of today’s production cycles. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth as there is a time and place for both modular and unibody enclosures within a forward-thinking industrial automation framework.
