Clearly visible signals – Leuze
Leuze introduces new tower lights in robust aluminum housing: The TL 305 series impress with bright and uniform illumination, stylish design as well as an option for IO-Link.

Tower lights are indispensable in machine building, manufacturing processes and intralogistics: They make machine states, faults and ongoing processes clearly visible from a distance. The new Leuze tower lights of the TL 305 series can do all of this and look great too. They are bright, uniform and stylish and available pre-configured with three, four or five segments. The new range of tower lights includes the TL 305 models with predefined colours as well as the TL 305-IOL models with IO-Link interface. The IO-Link variants allow different operating modes and provide an extensive selection of colours. The tower lights are also available with sounder if required.

Figure 2: The individually configurable TL 305-IOL tower lights can be parameterized extremely flexibly via the IO-Link interface. System operators can signal individual machine states by means of different brightnesses, lighting sequences, colors or types of signal sound.
Quick and easy implementation
As with all Leuze equipment usability is key. The M30 thread and M12 connector together with a range of mounting accessories make them quick and easy to install. All models of the series are characterized by a high-quality, robust design. The aluminum housing allows the tower lights to be used even in demanding industrial environments.

Figure 3: The TL 305 tower lights used in combination with a proximity sensor are also suitable for safety-related monitoring tasks. For example, if a door is opened, a visual and/or acoustic warning is output.
Flexible configuration
The IO-Link version TL 305-IOL with its different operating modes offers maximum flexibility. Segment mode enables the segments to be actuated individually via IO-Link. This allows colour, intensity and lighting sequences to be configured individually. Level mode is used to visualize fill levels. If fast commissioning is required, users can actuate eight predetermined or user-defined configurations via the three external trigger inputs even without IO-Link connection.
