Speaking of time: Taks has also made since relying on decentralised electrical installation technology from connect the entire bus system with a single cable that combines power supply and communication. And thanks to the plug connection and extension cables based on internationally recognised standards - it is into a socket.
Nolden and his team also appreciate the wide range of module options that we can always put together the optimum Although system availability is

Our customers expect us to deliver robust systems that can even withstand minor He continued: “Our customers handle very high volumes. Downtime is therefore
decentralised electrical installation technology is designed to be extremely robust.
The fully encapsulated and therefore protection class IP67 are the centrepiece of the system. Thanks to their high resistance accidents described. Depending on the plastic or metal housings.
The connection and extension cables also have important technical features that make them particularly robust and encapsulates the connectors with halogen- the ingress of water or dust. They also have mechanical vibration protection to ensure that the plug and screw connections do not come loose even under mechanical stress caused by shock and vibration.
