When asked why Westermo wanted to start supplying LC Automation, Dean explained; "Westermo and the other suppliers who have recently joined LC Automation see our overall level of service and support as a real bonus to their current operation.
A customer relationship with LC Automation doesn't end with the sale, and it's good to see that our suppliers, as well as our customers, really appreciate that".
Here are just some of the features that make Westermo stand out from the crowd.
Galvanic isolation: total galvanic isolation is absolutely vital to prevent noise and ground loops in industrial data communications systems.
Tri-galvanic isolation is the electrical separation of both sides of the communication circuits from the power supply and is vital to provide totally reliable communications.
Transients or noise spikes are often present on signal and power lines.
Westermo use diodes, SIDACtors, and gas discharge tubes to prevent damage caused by these disturbances.
Westermo quality standards require the use of components that will enhance performance within industrial applications.
All electrical contacts are gold plated to offer superior resistance to corrosion.
All components used in Westermo products must comply with strict quality standards and offer maximum life-cycle performance.
All Westermo products are designed to industrial, not consumer, electromagnetic immunity requirements.
They are also designed to operate correctly within EMC fields of over 10V/m, whilst still complying with the EMC emission levels acceptable in office and home environments. Request free introductory details about products from LC Automation ...
