    LC15T and WLS17 heat sealer washdown
    Challenge: Controlling Light Intensity in Harsh Environments

    In a recent food and beverage application, workers were assigned to stations with food heat sealer washdown procedures. Due to the wet environment in which they performed work; the operators had never been able to find a device that could function and connect to the work lights positioned on their workstations. They had no way to change light brightness and intensity. If there was a maintenance issue, they had no good workaround for a brighter environment, and it was difficult to find the source of the problems. In addition to local control, operators wanted the ability to dim light intensity to limit eye strain.

    Solution: LC15T for Local Control On/Off

    The facility manager placed LC15T switches at each workstation. The sealed, capacitive touch switch was connected in-line with the work lights. Its durable M12 in-line connection and integral mounting holes made it easy to install in minutes without impacting existing application framework.

    Due to its immunity to false triggering by water spray, operators were able to actuate it with their bare hands or gloves. When maintenance was necessary, users would touch and hold the switch to increase the light’s brightness. Operators were able to save intensities so they would not have to change it every time they began a shift or if the facility lost power.

    Key Benefits

    Sealed for Harsh Environments

    Banner’s LC15T is a unique industrial light controller, which can solve challenging applications that other switches cannot. LC15T features excellent immunity to false triggering by water spray, oils, and other foreign materials. Its ergonomic design allows it to be actuated with bare hands or gloves for simple operation with the touch of a finger. It has an IP66/IP67 environmental rating, making it ideal for wet environments. Durable M12 in-line connection and integral mounting holes make it easy to install in minutes without impacting existing application framework.

    Customizable Intensity Control

    With its low-profile and sleek design, the LC15T is an easy-to-use interface for controlling a wide range of DC devices. LC15T has the capability to dim lights using PWM output, allowing users to define their preferred states. Customize intensity levels by touching and holding the switch to set your preferred intensity, or double tap to return to 100% intensity. It remembers the last saved state so employees can quickly return to their preferred intensity. Similarly, if power to the device is lost, the switch will return to the last intensity it was set to once power has been restored.

    Visual Feedback for Status Indication

    The LC15T effectively communicates status to users with green, blue, and red colors to indicate different device states. When the light is off, the switch is red. When the light is on, the switch is green. When the light is on and in any intermediary state, the switch is blue. The bright indication mimics light power and output status. Communication is visual, easy to see and understand, even in busy environments.

    Applications:
    • General workstations
    • Operator-centric lighting control
    • Standalone actuation device
    • On/Off control of DC devices
