Phoenix Contact’s IP67 Solutions on Display in a Restored El Camino

Phoenix Contact's newest mobile product demonstration shows how to get the most mileage out of automation. A fully restored and customized 1970 El Camino displays a range of industrial components and connectors for IP67 applications. 

Dubbed for its namesake, FieldLine I/O, the green "FL Camino" features an active demonstration of machine-mount and wireless Bluetooth I/O, DUPLICON power distribution, wireless Ethernet, industrial PCs, embedded controllers, and heavy-duty connectors for power and data. The FL Camino also sports 18-in. rims, GPS navigation, twin DVDs, DirecTV, XM satellite radio, a 32-in. HDTV, Wii gaming system, and a 48,0000-BTU grill.

The FL Camino is scheduled to visit industry tradeshows and Phoenix Contact distributors across the U.S. The car will also attend major sporting events, starting with the USC-Ohio State football game on Sept. 12 in Columbus, Ohio.
