MILWAUKEE, Dec. 11, 2003 - To help ensure operator safety, Rockwell Automation introduces two new industrial signaling products: the Allen-Bradley Bulletin 855P Panel Mount Alarms and Bulletin 855B Round Industrial Beacons. By communicating machine status and emergency conditions, these new products improve operator and plant-floor safety, while helping reduce downtime. Rated for use in 4/4X/13 and IP65 environments, the round industrial beacons and panel-mount alarms can operate in the most demanding conditions, including wet, oily, dry or corrosive environments. The
Allen-Bradley Bulletin 855P Panel Mount Alarms
have sound outputs ranging from 80 dB to 105 dB at one meter, allowing users to select the appropriate sound level for the specific application. In addition, the 855P panel-mount alarms feature tone selection and adjustable volume control for increased user flexibility.The Bulletin 855P Panel Mount Alarms can be mounted in standard 22.5-mm or 30-mm holes and are available in four voltage levels: 12V AC/DC, 24V AC/DC, 120V AC, and 240V AC. With plug-in IP2X finger-safe terminal blocks, the products offer quick and easy installation.
Additionally, the enclosed shell design of the Bulletin 855P modules makes them tamper-resistant, and rear-secured access virtually eliminates unauthorized product removal. The
Allen-Bradley 855B Round Industrial Beacons
are available in two diameters, 160mm and 120mm, and four voltage levels: 12V AC/DC, 24V AC/DC, 120V AC, and 240V AC. The 855B round industrial beacons use optically enhanced lenses for the best possible light dispersion. For application flexibility, the 855B Round Beacons offer four illumination options: steady halogen, flashing halogen, strobe and rotating halogen. In addition, the beacons are offered in six colors: red, green, amber, blue, clear, and yellow.
In areas where visibility may be limited, the round industrial beacons can be combined with Allen-Bradley 855H Industrial Horns for heightened impact and alarm recognition.Rockwell Automation (NYSE: ROK) is a world-leading provider of industrial automation power, control and information solutions that help customers meet their manufacturing productivity objectives.
