A small utilityin Seguin, Texas installed a complete monitoring and control system that rivals systems installed at much larger utilities to improve service.
The ADA-Compliant, multipurpose push button switches are customizable to meet application specifications.
AutomationDirect has added SSP safety enabling switches, also known as “hold-to-run” or “dead man’s” switches. When used in conjunction with a properly designed safety system, they provide the operator with a special control mode for tasks such as maintenance or debugging of hazardous equipment. These switches consist of a spring-return three-position (N.O.-N.C.-N.O.) grip button that must be maintained by the operator in the middle position for the machinery to continue operating.
Cepoint’s DC-DC battery powered All-Flash NVMe NAS Server series with FLASH FAST STORAGE devices now available in 1U to 4U rack mount with DC battery power supply options of 48V DC, 110V DC-240V DC is changing the way and pace IT industry is evolving in implementation of Green Computing and renewable energy for ever.
Rittal North America recently introduced the new Power Isolation Enclosure Selector Tool – designed to help prevent arc flash related hazards. The new tool allows users to design a solution in three easy steps that is unique to their application. Human error is the most common cause of arc flash injuries; while there are many safety protocols that can be followed to help keep people safe from the risk of arc flash, mistakes do happen.
The TFD Series of touchless linear position sensors from Novotechnik provides wear-free operation in tight spaces.
Rittal North America introduces the Perforex MT 2201 automated milling terminal that enables accelerated throughput times for enclosure modifications. The Perforex MT 2201 features single cycle, completely automated drilling, tapping, and milling across enclosure sizes and material types, and repeatable accuracy and reliability; helping system integrators and OEMs reduce labor costs, improve delivery times, and increase efficiency up to 85% compared to manual enclosure modification.
Rittal North America recently announced the expansion of its smart cooling unit solutions for enclosures with the new Blue e+ S that has lower output categories of .3 kW, .5 kW, and 1 kW. Additionally, the Blue e+ S offers smart capabilities and innovative energy-saving features for the production process. This latest generation of Blue e+ S cooling units have been designed for efficiency helping to ensure a smaller footprint, provide energy savings, minimize CO2 emissions, and lower costs.
Jonard Tools’ new Advanced Optical Fiber Identifier w/ Power Meter & VFL (OFI-100) is a complete 3-in-1 tool for fiber technicians. The Optical Fiber Identifier is designed to quickly detect the direction of light being transmitted inside fiber optic cables and displays the relative core power without damaging the fiber. This fiber identifier is perfect for working on fiber optic cables in network systems without having to disrupt the network.
Littelfuse, Inc. has launched its Energy Storage Rack (ESR) series of fuses designed specifically to protect battery racks from a range of fault currents to help prevent equipment damage and expensive system failures. The 1500V direct current (DC) high-speed square body fuse is extremely fast-acting to respond quickly, safeguarding the battery module or other devices in energy storage, power conversion, and DC common bus systems as well as hybrid photovoltaic battery energy storage system (PV-BESS) inverters.
WAGO’s new industrial managed switches make it easy for users to increase the security of their building automation applications. This innovation integrates cybersecurity functions: 128-bit encryption of data packets on two ports. This makes it possible to retrofit secure data transmission in an existing network – regardless of the protocol and without changes in the application.
AutomationDirect has added new additions to their existing Stego line of thermal management products for even more enclosure heating and cooling solutions. Top-mount filter fans, in axial or high-capacity versions, and compatible vents are now available to provide a low-cost cooling option for enclosures.
Panel Extension PX3 protects and prevents costly downtime and equipment failure. PX3 features an externally mounted surge solution that can be physically attached to the top or bottom of any panelboard providing a reduced profile surge solution. Moreover, PX3 offers an internal disconnect option, allowing safer and easier repairs without having to cut power to the distribution panel.
Circular Plastic Connectors (CPC) are rugged and reliable connector systems suitable for many applications. CPC connectors are polarized for proper mating of connector halves, with removable contacts and a replaceable coupling ring that makes field repair easy. They are designed with a stabilized, heat-resistant, self-extinguishing thermoplastic material. These circular plastic connectors are trusted with their performance reliability and used anywhere signal and power either enter or exit a system.
nVent Electric plc has recently launched the nVent HOFFMAN RackChiller CDU800 Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU), the company’s first platform for high-density liquid cooling for high-performance computing (HPC), hyperscale, enterprise and edge computing applications. The RackChiller CDU800 is designed to consistently deliver liquid coolant to maximize cooling efficiency while reliably removing heat from sensitive equipment.
SCHURTER announces the IEC C14 Connector series 6080 with mating C13 V-Lock power cords for protection against dust and water ingress.
