Post By: Ryan King On: 09-08-2018 Read Time: 2 minutes - Guides

Your machine processing system can do anything you want it to do, and can perform increasingly complex tasks, but one little thing you need to set it all going is a Push Button. Whether it's just to switch your system On or Off, activate the Emergency Stop or restrict the operation to key holders only, Siemens' new Sirius Act range has the button for you. This unique collection of elegantly designed switches, indicator lights and push buttons perfectly embodies today's smart systems, incorporating intelligence, style and physical durability.

Performance in Action – Rugged and Reliable

The new Sirius Act range of parts are incredibly robust and meet all safety and performance requirements. They'll keep on functioning even if you accidentally spill water, oils, or solutions of a caustic nature on them. Dust, high-pressure water jets and extreme environments offer no hindrance to the reliable operation of these buttons and switches, making them ideal for almost every application.

Performance in Action – Fast Installation with Innovative Snap-On Design

The new Sirius Act range is designed for easy handling and installation, with a fast snap-on concept that makes installing or dismantling a unit entirely effortless. With this type of trouble-free installation, it's very hard to set it up incorrectly, and so the risk of performance error is reduced.

Performance in Action – Four Lines of Exciting Designs

Constructed of high-quality plastic and metal, the new Sirius Act range offers an unparalleled level of functionality, while its flat, round design is aesthetically timeless. Whatever your budget, taste or designated application, these switches, push buttons and signalling devices are in a totally different design league, which you can mix and match as you desire with your hardware and application-specific circumstances.

Performance in Action - Flexible Communication

The new Sirius Act range offers various options for communications interfacing, so you can link your buttons and switches with control systems using industrial PCs or HMI touch screens. You can set up complex input stations without having to do any extensive wiring, or put in lots of time and effort in engineering. The intelligent system also uses intuitive hardware configuration and uniform data management, enabling faster fault diagnostics and overall time savings.

Best of all, Siemens has the technology to configure your system online, before your fingers get within a hair's breadth of the finely engineered plastic. The Sirius Act Configurator offers a unique opportunity to configure all your individual signalling and command devices intuitively. With this system, you can combine enclosures and labelling individually, or to suit your specific application needs. It features a graphics-based component display, which you can first preview, then select with a drag and drop tool, making online ordering easier than ever. The Configurator also lets you download a complete set of product documentation, including terminal diagrams and exploded drawings.
