Prysmian BICON Pressline Emergency Stop System

Product overview

Prysmian BICON Pressline Emergency Stop System is a unique system that offers continuous emergency stop protection around complex industrial hazards. The actuating device is a patented pressure sensitive cable that can follow any route up to 10km. Activation is by pressing, bending or pulling the cable at any point along its length. The Pressline Control Unit monitors the pressure sensitive cable and employs rigorously tested solid state technology. The control unit continuously monitors the cable and confirms system functionality. If an activation state is detected in the cable, the control unit interacts with machinery controls to switch off plant or activate alarms.
