Schneider DBK 311 Control Panel | IP65 Industrial Operator

The Schneider DBK 311 provides centralized control capabilities for industrial machinery and processes. This control panel integrates seamlessly into existing automation architectures with minimal disruption. Operators will appreciate its intuitive interface and reliable performance characteristics.

Technical Specifications & Physical Characteristics

This control panel features a compact enclosure measuring approximately 200 mm in height, 150 mm in width, and 80 mm in depth. The total weight reaches roughly 1.8 kg, making it suitable for wall-mount or console installation. Additionally, the DBK 311 incorporates no internal energy storage components, which simplifies maintenance and safety procedures.

The enclosure contains three primary interface components including an emergency stop button, a selector switch, and indicator lamps. Each component connects through pre-wired terminal blocks for straightforward field wiring. The panel’s front face uses IP65-rated sealing to resist dust and water ingress.
