Product highlights for mining, minerals and metallurgy

PROtop - the high-end power supply

Superior, future-proof, and sustainable: The high-end power supply for the highest demands of Industry 4.0

A permanent supply in any environment: 24/7 installations require a particularly reliable power supply that can withstand harsh environmental conditions. Condition monitoring for targeted, preventive maintenance is therefore becoming increasingly important. PROtop combines highest efficiency and compact housings with high durability and direct parallel connection, without diode modules.

This reduces costs and creates space in the control cabinet. Due to the powerful DCL technology, even difficult loads - motors, for instance - are operated smoothly, while circuit breakers are triggered reliably. This excellent communication capability allows permanent condition monitoring and full integration with control systems.

Your special advantages

Safe triggering of circuit breakers due to DCL
High energy reserves for powerful engine starts due to DCL
Highest efficiency and very long lifetime
Extremely space-saving design
Integrated O-Ring MOSFETs for redundancy or parallel operation
Future-proof due to optional communication modules

Klippon® Protect enclosure systems

Safely control processes in hazardous environments

Enclosures fulfil an important safety function and prove their worth every day, even under the toughest of conditions. All industries have their own specific requirements in terms of enclosure technology - from machine construction to transport, energy engineering, and process industry. At the same time, the enclosures must meet strict requirements with respect to necessary international approvals.

We provide certified enclosures for assured protection. Our Klippon® Protect enclosure system covers all approvals required for use in industrial and explosive risk zones. It is also flexible enough to allow an optimum adaptation to your requirements. Individual services round off our range to provide you with optimised process support.
