Appleton Control Stations
Appleton control stations are customized housings containing pushbuttons, pilot lights, selector switches, E-Stops and other operator interface devices that provide a centralized control point for machinery and electrical equipment. Appleton control stations are configured for use in industrial and hazardous location applications that require operator control interfaces, durability and safety.
Appleton control stations provide a housing for the consolidation of various control devices, providing improved operator interface ergonomics and facilitating installation and maintenance. Control stations contain a variety of operator interface devices used for operations including start and stop control, selector functions, status indication, alarm notification and E-Stop, making them a popular choice for use with production machinery, processing systems and automation control equipment.
Appleton control stations are rugged and durable, available in heavy-duty and weather-resistant designs constructed to maintain long term operation in tough industrial environments subject to moisture, dirt, vibration and temperature extremes. Control stations are available in standard and explosionproof designs suitable for general purpose industrial environments as well as those commonly found in manufacturing, processing and power generation facilities.
