Power supply
Intelligent power supply now also for hazardous areas
Atex and IECEx approval have been added to the features of Wago's Pro 2 power supply. This means that the product can also be used in potentially explosive areas in future.
Hazardous areas and the devices used there, such as the control and measurement technology installed, are subject to high safety requirements for people and machines. In order to meet these requirements, the power supply system needs special approval. The Wago Pro 2 power supply with Atex and IECEx approval now meets all these requirements. The Pro 2 provides a reliable power supply for sensors, actuators and other control systems in hazardous areas.
