The adapter plate enables fast and easy mounting directly on the wall or floor of the control cabinet. An additional plate on the outside provides for added stability. With AirLINE Quick, all pneumatic connections can be mounted directly on the control cabinet base or side eliminating the need for bulkhead connectors. Also integrated is the fieldbus communication and modular I/O for an altogether smaller design of control cabinets. Additional components such as pipes, cables or control cabinet connections are eliminated, due to direct mounting, further reducing the time needed for installation and commissioning.
