Why Choose the Wöhner 36179 OMUS® C14 CrossBoard® Connect Plus Electronic Switch?

The Wöhner 36179 is a next-generation electronic switch for resistive loads, designed for the Wöhner OMUS® C14 CrossBoard® Connect Plus platform. Featuring an integrated IO-Link communication interface, built-in display and CrossLink® technology, it provides intelligent switching, monitoring and diagnostics for modern industrial automation systems.

Designed specifically for switching resistive loads from 0.1 A to 2.6 A, the 36179 supports three-pole or individually switchable single-pole operation. Its semiconductor switching technology enables switching frequencies of up to 20 Hz, making it ideal for heating control, mould heating and other applications requiring rapid, precise switching.

The integrated CrossLink® interface allows direct installation onto compatible CrossBoard® 125 A, 250 A and 800 A systems, reducing installation time while simplifying wiring. Combined with intelligent diagnostics via IO-Link and an intuitive front display, the Wöhner 36179 delivers efficient operation, predictive maintenance and enhanced system availability.
