P-A19-B3RX

Overview

The Grace Technologies P-A19-B3RX is a panel interface connector (PIC) designed for industrial control applications. It functions as an Ethernet panel interface connector, typically installed on the exterior of industrial control panels to facilitate safe and efficient access. The device supports programming port functionality, allowing users to connect to programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and other internal devices without opening the panel door. This design enhances operational safety by reducing exposure to hazardous electrical environments.

Feature Summary

• Provides secure external access to PLCs and internal equipment through a closed-panel interface
• Enhances compliance with OSHA, NEC, NFPA 70E, and CSA Z462 safety standards
• Eliminates the need to open panel doors for routine programming and diagnostics

Applications

• Industrial control panel programming ports
• Safe access to PLCs in hazardous environments
• HMI and valuable electrical component protection interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official documentation to ensure correct configuration. Confirm that the selected variant meets all required safety certifications for your facility's compliance standards. Check for any custom labeling options if company branding is required. Ensure compatibility with existing panel mounting requirements before finalizing the order.

Selection Notes

Select this model when external access to internal controls is necessary without compromising panel integrity. Consider the need for UL Type 4 enclosure ratings if environmental protection is required. Evaluate the requirement for custom text or logos to identify personnel quickly. Ensure the installation location allows for adequate cable management and accessibility.
