Remote Die Box

Die Protection Sensor Interface Remote Die Box
The six-channel remote die box simplifies die sensor management by allowing for quick sensor replacements using either plug connectors or banana jacks. It supplies +24VDC power to active sensors and monitors their status (PNP or NPN). The Remote Die Box, part no. 53-450 includes individual channel indicators, a 45-foot quick-disconnect cable (12 conductor) to minimize wiring installation time, and a power supply (24VDC at 2.5 AMP) to power the sensors.
