Pepperl+Fuchs has many years of experience in the field of explosion protection and industrial sensor technology.
Anyone who wants to curb climate change will not be able to avoid hydrogen. The first element of the periodic table is a key factor in decarbonizing transport and industry—provided that the gas has been extracted without CO2 emissions. The value chain from the wind turbine to the hydrogen filling station is long, and it is replete with technical challenges.
Decarbonization will bring about numerous changes, especially in the way we generate, store, distribute, and consume energy. “Green” hydrogen will play a fundamental role in producing energy and decarbonizing industry and heavy-duty vehicles in the future. To ensure that automated processes are safe, explosion- protected components and sensors with a variety of different functions are required. Pepperl+Fuchs has many years of experience in the field of explosion protection and industrial sensor technology, making it the right partner and a binding element in the hydrogen chain— from generating renewable energy, high-pressure compression after electrolysis, transport, and storage through to large- scale industrial use and hydrogen filling stations.
Automation is our world. A Perfect application solution is our goal.A willingness to take entrepreneurial risks, a pioneering spirit, and a firm belief in their own inventive powers – these were the assets that Walter Pepperl and Ludwig Fuchs started out with when they opened their Mannheim radio repair shop in 1945. Their invention of the proximity switch a few years later proved their strength. It was also the starting point in a successful history defined by close customer relationships as well as innovative automation technologies and procedures. Then as now, our focus is directed squarely on the individual requirements of each customer. Whether as a pioneer in electrical explosion protection, or as a leading innovator of highly efficient sensors – the close communication with our customers is what allowed us to become the leader in automation technology. Our main objective is combining state-of the-art technologies and comprehensive services to optimize our customers’ processes and applications.
