RS Components has significantly expanded its ‘COMPLETE line’ portfolio of products and essential accessories for control cabinet applications from Phoenix Contact.

The system incorporates an entire suite of coordinated hardware and software products that enable panel builders to optimise their work processes in control cabinet development. The system pulls together all of the manufacturer’s control panel products and necessary accessories in one range, making it easier to purchase, install and operate existing and new control cabinet solutions.

Aimed at switching, connection and disconnection, as well as measuring, controlling and automation applications, the portfolio includes thousands of devices comprising DIN rails and terminals, PLCs and HMIs and heavy-duty connectors. Highlights incorporate the latest PTFIX distribution blocks with push-in connection, machine safety devices including the latest release PSR series of safety relays and I/O and PLC expansion modules, which is part of the PLCnext ecosystem from the company.

“Making the full COMPLETE line available is fully aligned with our ambition of providing factory automation customers with end-to-end industrial control solutions from build through to maintenance,” said Kristian Olsson, vice president automation and control at RS. “Our customers will quickly realise the benefits from deploying it, helping them to reduce space and to design and install new control cabinets faster than ever before.”

“We have enjoyed a close partnership for more than 15 years with RS, a long-time distribution channel partner for Phoenix Contact,” said Lars Kleinegees, international channel partner manager at Phoenix Contact. “Through all its various channels, RS offers its large and global customer base with fast and easy access to more than 25,000 products from Phoenix Contact.”
