MSI TEC is a Weidmuller sales and support partner with extensive experience in their industrial power, signal and data product line. Today, almost every industry from automotive manufacturing to electricity generation and water management requires electronics and electrical connectivity. To meet this demand, Weidmuller is continuously developing innovative, sustainable and high-quality products to meet customer’s individual needs. In addition to being a Weidmuller distributor, we also offer engineered solutions and services, as well as extensive knowledge in industrial connectivity, automation and IIoT applications.
topGUARD Load Monitoring
Weidmuller's topGUARD is an IO-Link-capable load monitoring system that offers remote control options, full data transparency, and reliable protection of the 24 V system voltage. It is the ideal complement to the PROtop power supplies from innovative power management systems. It follows the innovative approach to integrated potential distribution, which saves space and time in device installation. A communication module simply needs to be connected and an IODD file integrated in order to carry out parameterisation and control, and to provide all operating data.
- Data transparency and remote control due to IO-Link
- Maximal flexibility thanks to a modular system
- Voltage-adaptive load monitoring according to Class 2
- Time and cost savings due to an integrated distribution of potential
- Simple migration from maxGUARD to topGUARD

maxGUARD Load Monitoring
Weidmuller's maxGUARD is ideal for machines and systems. It is fail-safe, maintenance-friendly, and offers load monitoring and potential distribution all in one. With the new maxGUARD system, the terminal blocks for distributing potential to the outputs of the electronic load monitors become an integral part of a 24 V DC control voltage distribution system. The innovative combination of load monitoring and potential distribution saves time during installation, increases safety against failure and reduces the amount of space required on the terminal rail by 50%.
- Modular, highly flexible system that can be optimally adapted to any application
- Potential distributors with a 6.1 mm pitch ensure space-savings of up to 50 % on the rail
- Extreme ease of service during commissioning and maintenance
- Practical disconnecting lever for simple galvanic isolation of the load circuit
