With ultra-bright LEDs and robust IP65 protection, the LR Series ensures clear, reliable status indication even in the toughest environments. The unique "Twist-and-Lock" design allows tool-free customisation, whether you're adding light modules, buzzer units, or upgrading to smart connectivity.

Available in sizes from 40 mm to 100 mm diameter, each signal tower balances visibility and modularity, with optional buzzers up to 90 dB for long-distance alerts.

The LR Series supports a wide range of connectivity options, ensuring easy integration into both traditional and smart factory environments:

Wire Lead - Standard wiring for straightforward, universal installation.

M12 Connector - Quick-disconnect option for simplified setup and maintenance.

USB Connection - Plug-and-play compatibility for PCs and testing environments.

LAN Connection - Enables network monitoring and control directly from Industrial PCs or PLCs eliminating the need for contact output boards.

IO-Link - Provides smart communication for Industry 4.0 applications, delivering diagnostic data and flexible control over a single cable.

Why it matters for machine builders

Efficiency in maintenance and uptime: The "Twist-and-Lock" mechanism and plug-and-play connection helps reduce downtime.

Scalable solutions: With multiple sizes, module types, and connection options, installations can be tailored to exact requirements.

Future-ready integration: From simple wire leads to IoT-ready IO-Link and LAN connectivity, the LR Series fits seamlessly into both legacy systems and cutting-edge smart factories.

Endurance on the factory floor: Industrial-grade durability ensures consistent operation even in harsh conditions.
