What if your installation could be wired without a control cabinet?

Field mountable power supplies are bringing about the end of the control cabinet in industrial automation.

Over the past years, industrial automation has seen a surge of field mountable I/O and sensor components, controllers, and HMIs allowing more and more of the overall controls architecture to be mounted in the field, directly to the machine. In all the commotion, power supplies have been left behind, meaning that a centralized control cabinet still struggles to provide 24V power to all areas of a system, and often is over-sized to account for voltage loss.

Field mountable power supplies from ifm allow for the decentralization of power distribution, meaning that installations see lower voltage drop and less power loss across an installation. Localized power supply, monitoring, configuration, and diagnostics reduce trouble shooting and restart time in case of a fault, saving critical production time and increasing overall efficiencies within a facility.
