Appropriate markings for every application
Terminal marking
Large-surface and clear marking of terminal points is essential for the quick and error-free wiring of terminal strips . In particular , this simplifies the commissioning and maintenance of control cabinets and systems . Terminal strips are assembled flexibly with different terminal blocks whose geometries can differ from each other . The decisive variables for the terminal markings are the pitch and the marking groove . Phoenix Contact provides a comprehensive range of versions that enable secure positioning on the terminal blocks .
Wire and cable marking
Easily visible and permanent wire and cable marking increases safety and simplifies work workflows – especially when servicing is required . In addition to the wire and cable cross-sections , the installation situation and ambient conditions also determine the type of marking solution that is suitable . Adhesive wire-wrap labels and slide-on shrink sleeves can cover all cross-section ranges and do not add bulk . They are particularly suitable for tight installation situations . Markers that are attached with cable ties can be used for any diameter and can even be mounted retrospectively .
Equipment marking
Whether in the control cabinet , in production plants , or in outdoor installations – equipment markings are used everywhere . This multitude of applications places numerous demands on the markings used , which can only be met with specialized materials and special adhesives . For uneven surfaces , for example , highly flexible PVC labels that adjust perfectly to the surface are ideal . On the other hand , only labels with special and particularly strong adhesives will bond to rough and low-energy surfaces .
Plant marking
The comprehensive and clear identification of plants not only ensures safety , but is also a legal requirement . Along with warning information , prohibition signs , and mandatory signs , markings identify emergency stop buttons and fire alarm systems , for example . Identification with hazardous substance labels in accordance with the international standard ensures the necessary protection when handling hazardous substances . Furthermore , pipeline markers are used to indicate which fluids or gases are flowing in the pipes , as well as the direction of flow .
