One of the main objectives of the systems and solutions group from Pepperl+Fuchs is to respond quickly to their customers’ requirements for automation solutions in hazardous areas. The acquisition of Walsall Ltd. has moved Pepperl+Fuchs one step closer to achieving this goal. Pepperl+Fuchs' established interface, Remote I/O, and fieldbus components form the basis for customer-specific product solutions, from control cabinets to fieldbus distribution stations. A solution engineering team will oversee the project throughout its duration, from the initial offer through engineering, assembly and customer acceptance test.
In December 2009, Pepperl+Fuchs GmbH acquired Walsall Ltd. to extend its range of available solutions. The company develops and manufactures electromechanical products for use in hazardous areas. Their main products include enclosures for increased safety, intrinsic safety and flameproof protection classes with approvals for a wide range of electrical apparatus.
