Being able to stay connected and up to date anywhere, anytime is now something that is expected by everyone. Phoenix Contact’s technology is now moving towards smart factories and Industry 4.0, but this also means that we need to create technology that enables people to also work smarter.
Our mobile apps have been developed to enable you to keep up to date with Phoenix Contact’s latest news, new products but also be able to easily access your systems at any time, any where. Take a look at the apps currently available:
Catalogue App
The catalogue app has been revamped this year, and is a great way of finding our products on the move. You can search the whole product catalogue be product category or if you have a certain product in mind, you can search using keywords. There is also a facility to create a wish list for easy access to your favourite products.
Once you find the item you are looking for, you can download datasheets or link directly to that product on our website.
All the latest news is also regularly refreshed in the app, so you can be sure you will be kept up-to-date.

Protection App
This fun little app is aimed at installation engineers and building contractors, and uses a typical family home as an example to show how a house can be equipped with surge protection. An animation highlights to what extent the building is protected and videos illustrate what can happen without any protection in place.

This app is a useful tool to give you an overview on how far your machine/system complies with the requirements of the 2006/42/EC Machine Directive.
There is a check list to help guide you through the essential points of the machine directive, and you are also able to determine the Performance Level or ascertain the MTTFd value for a safety function.
