Save time and money during research and development with DEV-KITS from Phoenix Contact.
DEV-KITS are electronics housing kits that include all the parts needed to assemble an enclosure ready for your electronics. They include the enclosure body and connectors along with made to measure prototyping PCBs and BUS connectors that can be ordered separately. DEV-KITS are ideal for rapid prototyping, proof of concept and one off projects.
At some point during the design process the enclosure comes into consideration. Typically there are two choices: design and engineer a new enclosure at considerable cost and with a high MOQ, or use an off the shelf solution. The second option is often overlooked but is quick to realise and avoids the high engineering costs associated with custom enclosures. Electronics Housings from Phoenix Contact can offer the best of both worlds.

In the past three years, Phoenix Contact has quickly become one the biggest global companies for industrial marking solutions.

More and more people are managing machines and plants remotely due to time and the costs involved of being on site every time there is a potential problem. This is particularly crucial during the commissioning phase of a new installation where time is money!
I discuss this subject on a regular basis with customers who want a simple and easy to manage way of implementing remote access. They have enough to think about without adding to the workload or cost of a project. Remote access is not a new thing, but up to now it has been either limited in functionality or complex to configure.
