Appleton designs, builds and tests their electrical control products to maximize both
passive and active safety operation. Passive safety means that your equipment will
perform, even under profound stress. Passive safety engineering prevents potential sparks
from causing an explosion, provides durable housings that keep corrosion at bay and
incorporates devices that function reliably for decades.
We incorporate active safety design into our controls, enclosures and panelboards, as well.
Active safety engineering is about designing products that blend into your environment,
are user friendly and work reliably. Smooth and accurate switches, high visibility pilot
lights and customizable control interfaces all decrease the possibility of user error while
increasing production e ciencies.
