        • Implement Efficient Signaling and See Your Equipment's Availability Soar

        • Signal towers are just as essential to the smooth and safe operation of machines and systems as they are at airports and supermarkets. More-over, the tasks they have to perform are as varied as the locations where they have to be used. This is why Eaton has designed its signal towers in such a way as to be able to accommodate extremely versatile light and acoustic modules. On top of this, their high IP66 degree of protection ensures that they can be used virtually anywhere. Ship classifications and CCC are currently pending.

          In terms of signaling systems, light intensity and signal strength are as crucial to a system's efficiency as are the speed and ease with which complete towers can be assembled and disassembled, e.g., in order to transport a machine.

          Moreover, this efficiency can be increased even further by effectively inte-grating signal towers into an automation solution. Within this context, a SmartWire-DT connection not only significantly reduces wiring complexity, but also considerably enhances a system's communication capabilities. Intelligent switchgear can send alarm messages through the system – when, for example, overloading is imminent – in order to avoid stops and down-times. Following these signals, signal towers can output their own clearly recognizable signals, thus ensuring higher machine and system availability.
