Description
TER Mike Pendant Control Station for auxiliary control of modern ergonomic shape, easy to handle, unit is user-friendly and sturdy. The Mike is a the result of careful analysis of ergonomic aspects and it is rich in high-performing features to suit the most demanding requirements.
FEATURES OF THE MIKE PENDANT CONTROL STATION
- Reduced installation and wiring time and costs: the cable inlet and the switches fitted in the base of the control station are separated from the actuators, installed on the cover.
- Innovative suspension system with concealed cables to enable rapid, correct, ergonomic installation.
- Rubber pushbuttons with symbol disks to ensure protection against dust and prevent jamming when the control station is used in harsh environments.
- The emergency stop mushroom pushbutton complies with standard ISO 13850.
- Positive opening NC contacts for safety functions.
- Mechanical life of pushbuttons and switches: 10 million operations.
- IP protection degree: Mike is classified IP66, IP67 and IP69K.
- IK protection degree: Mike is classified IK08.
- NEMA protection degree: Mike is classified Type 1, 4 and 4X.
- Extreme temperature resistance: -40°C to +80°C.
- All materials and components used are wear resistant and guarantee protection of the unit against water and dust.
OPTIONS
- Available in configuration from 4 to 15 actuators.
- Available with specific protection for actuators mounted on the bottom of the control station.

TER has acquired decades of experience in designing and manufacturing control stations, providing now four series of pendant control stations or wall-mounted control stations, for auxiliary and direct control, used to command and control industrial machinery. control stations are used in particular in industrial and construction lifting plants to control gantry cranes, track cranes, jib cranes, wall-mounted jib cranes, tower cranes and winches for construction sites; in the automation industry to command and control systems to manage machines and processes, thus reducing the need for human intervention; in stage technology to control the equipment used to move stage sets, curtains etc.; in the waste disposal industry to control the movement of machines and equipment.
TER range of control stations includes three series of pushbutton stations for auxiliary control (two pendant control stations and one wall-mounted control station) and one series of pushbutton stations foe direct control, with 1 to 15 actuators depending on the unit requested.
Each project has been developed on the basis of specifications such as technicism, anthropomorphism, futurism and ergonomics to give the control stations an innovative design, where each graphic element is linked to a specific technical function. Dimensions and shapes are the result of careful analysis of the product ergonomic aspects, aimed at achieving a graphic style that blends in with modern industrial environments, making TER control stations extremely handy, user friendly and easy to integrate in the machine. Compact dimensions and antislip grooves on the cases make it easy to handle the control stations under any working conditions.
Each series of control stations has specific features which drastically reduce time and costs for installation and maintenance down time.
TER’s aim is to simplify the control of the machines equipped with its devices, designing reliable, ergonomic and intuitive safety products, capable of predicting the demands of the market and becoming the industry benchmark.
At the basis of this company mission is the will to establish a connection between market and company, by giving an increasingly central role to the sales department, seen as a continuous relationship between TER and its customers.
