Industrial Control Selection Guide
Choosing the Right IDEC Product
Product selection depends on the required control or safety function, electrical ratings, operator-interface needs, mounting dimensions and the operating environment.
Ask for Selection Assistance1
Required Function
Identify whether the component must control, indicate, switch, automate, monitor or provide a machine-safety function.
2
Electrical Ratings
Confirm the supply voltage, contact arrangement, load rating, output type and communication requirements.
3
Mounting & Dimensions
Determine the panel cutout, mounting depth, DIN-rail space, enclosure size and connection method.
4
Environment & Safety
Consider dust, moisture, washdown, temperature, hazardous areas and required machine-safety performance.
