Pfannenberg INTENSE BR 50 Modular LED Signal Tower

Description

A slim modular signal tower for machine and process status

The Pfannenberg INTENSE BR 50 is a modular signal tower with a diameter of only 54 mm. Pfannenberg describes it as ultra bright, with up to five modules combined in any order: continuous or blinking LED light modules, xenon flashing light modules or an audible module. The standard LED modules supply continuous light; replaceable LEDs determine whether a module shines continuously or blinks. Modules come as fully coloured or crystal-clear versions with coloured LEDs.

It mounts on a tubular stand with plinth, on a tube, on a bracket or directly, with a ready-made M12 connector variant available. A separate monitored-LED module supports sensitive applications where a malfunction must be reported to an external safety system, and an IO-Link module integrates the tower into IO-Link networks. The tower is for indoor and outdoor use with IP54 protection (IP65 optional) from -25 °C to +50 °C.

Pre-configured towers listed by Pfannenberg also include a 2-stage green-red tower (2211820000), a 3-stage green-red-blue tower (22118300010) and a direct-mounted 3-stage tower (22138300002). Article numbers are as printed in the sheet. The sheet also gives a worked ordering example for a five-stage tower, with the mounting stand (100 mm) and the seal as separate items.

Configuration notes

Define the stack from the bottom up: base module, sounder or flashing module as needed, then the continuous light modules, then the end module. Choose 24 V or 230 V modules consistently. Select the LEDs for the signalling mode and the supply voltage, and remember that the LEDs are only intended for BR 50 modules. Confirm the mounting method, IP rating and any monitoring requirement before ordering.

About brand

Pfannenberg is a Hamburg-based family company that makes signaling devices and thermal management products for industrial use. Otto Pfannenberg founded the company in 1954, and its history includes the invention of the filter-fan in 1958 and of the electronic flashing beacon in 1962.

Pfannenberg signaling range

The signaling range covers PATROL and PYRA combined sounders and flashing lights, PROTECT sounders for hazardous areas, and INTENSE modular signal towers. PATROL PA X units are offered from 105 dB(A) to 122 dB(A), and the PRO 10-Ex sounder is specified for zone 2 and zone 22 explosive atmospheres with Ex ec and Ex tc protection.

Requesting a quote for Pfannenberg devices

Send the article number or the full device designation, such as PA X 1-05, together with the supply voltage, lens colour, housing colour and any approval the project requires, for example EN 54-3 or an Ex certificate. Pfannenberg approvals apply to specific versions, so the exact article number is needed to confirm them.
