Information

The small BDF20 control box is available with a choice of emergency stop, illuminated pushbutton, or indicator light. With pushbutton caps available in 12 colors, it can be flexibly adapted to the requirements of any application. Connection via an M12 connector ensures quick and error-free installation, while allowing control boxes with emergency stop to be connected directly to Schmersal's SFB Safety-Field-Box. The control box connector can be concealed and protected against tampering using the optional MS-BDF40 mounting kit. The BDF20 can be installed as a stand-alone unit or combined with the AZM40 safety interlock and DHS door handle to form a streamlined door interlock system. Thanks to its multiple installation options and compact design, the BDF20 can also be used to create door systems for double acknowledgment. This means that a door interlocking system consisting of a BDF20 or BDF40 with AZM40 and DHS is mounted on the outside of the door, while the BDF20 with emergency stop and illuminated push button is installed on the inside of the door.

SCHMERSAL FRANCE TECNICUM5B108In 2016, the Schmersal Group founded an independent service division, tec.nicum. Our experts design and implement projects and safety solutions in all life cycle phases, such as the development, manufacture, operation or modernisation of machines and plants all over the world. Demand for these services has grown steadily in recent years. As a result, we have continuously expanded our global consulting network of TÜV Rheinland-certified specialists and engineers, including through the acquisition of omnicon engineering GmbH in 2019. In 2024, tec.nicum significantly expanded its range of safety services – particularly with regard to digitalisation and complete solutions for machine safety. In addition, global activities and competences are to be more closely integrated. For this reason, the Schmersal Group founded a new subsidiary in 2024, tec.nicum – Solutions & Services GmbH, into which omnicon engineering GmbH was also merged. The new company is based in Kirkel. On the one hand, our customers benefit from the greater pooling of the extensive industry knowledge and application experience of our global network of safety engineers. For example, we use the expertise of our Brazilian engineering team to support our customers in the Americas and Europe, and the expertise of our Indian team in Asia. Secondly, tec.nicum has significantly expanded its portfolio of safety services. The four pillars on which tec.nicum offering has been built to date – academy, consulting, engineering and integration – have been supplemented by two more: digitalisation and outsourcing. This involves additional services such as cloud solutions, IIoT applications and energy management – but also the option of completely outsourcing all tasks relating to machine safety to tec.nicum. The services can be accessed around the globe. A manufacturer-neutral and objective consulting approach is part of the tec.nicum core philosophy. Our tec.nicum guiding principle is: We offer customers competent, product- and manufacturer-neutral advice and support them in analysing and designing their machines and workplaces in terms of safety – true to the slogan: excellence in safety
