Euchner MGB2 MCM gate box extension module

Click2Contact

Euchner has released an additional module for its MGB2 Multifunctional Gate Box Modular. The small version of the MCM extension module offers space for up to six functions, which can be designed to meet individual requirements.

The compact MCM extension module has two slots, meaning it can be assembled with up to six control or application elements; for example, with an emergency stop button and enabling switch or with a key-operated rotary switch. This means users can choose between this small extension module and the existing larger version, which has four slots to accommodate up to 12 additional control and application elements.

The submodules with the function elements are simply inserted into the extension modules via a hot plug and need only minimal configuration before they are ready for operation. The submodules can also be easily replaced if necessary. It can be installed separately from the MGB locking module and bus module — inside a production area, for example, with the bus module installed outside. The MCM can also be used in combination with the bus module without a locking module or door handle.
