Product family for signal lights

The PSD-SL signal lights are smart LED indicators for indicating states in various applications such as machines, AGVs, or service robots. The lights are available in two designs as a point and tower, as three- or seven-color versions, and with various animations such as continuous light, blinking, color change, and flashing. This means that suitable scenes can be defined and implemented for every application.

Side view of mounting points and tower

Mounting is carried out as a simple M22 flush-mounted installation or with a metal bracket available as an accessory. The necessary mounting material, such as M22 fixing nut, locking plate, and flat gasket, is included. The lights are connected via a five-position A-coded M12 connection.

The robust design of the LED indicators enables a wide range of applications, not only indoors, but also outdoors. This is demonstrated, for example, by the extended ambient temperature range of -40 to +70°C. The lights meet IP66, IP67, and IP69 degrees of protection, and IP6K9K degree of protection for construction machinery. They also have UL type rating 4/4X specifically for outdoor use.

Signal light, tower mounted in the machine

The PSD-SL smart LED signal lights provide clear signaling that is optimized for the application. Thanks to their compact design, they can be mounted close to the function whose state is to be indicated. This enables clear assignment, avoids any misunderstandings, and communicates clear instructions.

The new PSD-SC product family consists of versions in two different heights. Available with 9 or 15 segments, with and without acoustic element, and all equipped with IO-Link interface. Perfect for every application.

Signal towers in different colors

The variety of signaling modes opens up numerous possible applications. Autoscale mode provides full-surface illumination of the light fixture and automatic division of the surface in up to five stages. Traffic light mode allows you to create a classic signal tower. Level mode enables the percentage-based display of levels. Individual mode allows you to parameterize all the segments (9 or 15). You can freely select the signal color.
