Extremelife™-70 Cable Meets Worldwide Requirements
Turck Extremelife™-70 cable with NEK 606 enhanced oil and mud resistance is the first global cable offering to meet both North American NEC flame and tray installation requirements (FT4/IEEE 1202) and global requirements for low-smoke, halogen-free content. This multi-listed approach simplifies cable logistics for global projects allowing a single cable source that meets worldwide installation requirements.
Equipped for marine and arctic weather conditions, Extremelife-70 includes UL and C(UL) -70 °C cold bend and -40 °C cold impact listings and remains flexible to work with down to -40 °C. It is IEEE 1580-2010 and IEC 60092 Marine Shipboard approved and American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) certified. These cables are robust and reliable, whether exposed to crush, impact, abrasion, cold, flame, oil, mud, chemicals, or UV.

Protect People, Equipment & Productivity: amGard Non-Contact Switches
Non-contact safety switches are interlocking devices used in applications where precise guidance of guards is difficult. Due to the design they are extremely long-lasting devices that require minimal maintenance. In addition they are resistant to shock and vibrations and offer a high level of prevention against tampering.
Fortress developed the amGardncs, a coded non-contact, safety, proximity switch in a robust package, featuring:
Stainless Steel IP69K housing, ideal for food, beverage and pharmaceutucal environments or anywhere hygiene or robustness are paramount.
PLe Cat 4/SIL3 safety rating.
Can be used as a coded interlock in accordance with EN14119.
Based on solid state Hall Effect sensors that do not suffer from vibration and contact bounce.
Copes with a very high level of misalignment
Integrated electronics that monitors for faults and ensure the safety relay does not enter a fault state, irrelevant of the approach direction.
Local user indication.
Monitor outputs for use in the control system.
Available with a variety of termination options
