binder has recently introduced the 823 and 824 series of cable connectors that are intended for use on the North-American continent. The K- and L-coded M12 products particularly aim at power applications and feature screw clamp terminations. They meet the requirements of the industry-relevant protection degree IP67, i.e. they are designed to be dust-tight and protected against temporary submersion.
The manufacturer of integrated industrial PCs Avalue Technology has developed smart panel kits, that can be combined with any retail motherboard specification, health, industry and transport.
To fulfill today’s industrial needs for Panel PC, continue increasing data loads, and integrate modern machine-to-machine (M2M) devices. With the requirement for IoT applications and fast network data transfers, ARBOR Technology had recently launched a new product family, the iTC Series of specialized industrial panel PCs. The iTC Series comes with three size variants, 10.1″, 12.1″ and 15″ which 10.1″ supports capacitive multi-touch display and 12.1″/15″ utilize resistive multi-touch display.
Recently, Contec Americas Inc. has added the CA-ME215PE4 21.5” PCAP Touch AIO to its current line of medical and industrial All-in-Ones Computers. The CA-ME215PE4 is a 21.5” fanless medical All-In-One solution with elegant design. It’s perfect for life sciences, medical carts, medical diagnostics, and any healthcare related applications. This product comes with IEC 60601 EMC and Safety regulatory certifications. CA-ME215PE4 is front IP65 compliant for easy wipe-down and sanitizing.
C&K has recently extended its KSC product series with a hard actuator and up to three million actuation cycles. With its hard actuator, KSC11 offers a high tactile ratio without sacrificing its lifetime. With competitors switches lasting 1,000,000 cycles in the best case, the KSC11 has tripled the lifespan. Offering the most cycles for a tactile switch with a hard actuator ensures your product will continue to perform for as long as needed.
AutomationDirect has added STRIDE & Murrelektronik IO-Link master modules and hubs to their existing field I/O product line. IO-Link is a powerful field I/O protocol capable of handling traditional field I/O signals along with diagnostic data from intelligent field devices, including device health, configured parameters, and performance. IO-Link master modules are the interface between field devices and higher-level controllers/information systems, and they also control data traffic between the connected devices.
CUI Devices’ Switches Group recently announced the addition of IP67 rated models to its line of tactile switches. Ideal for applications subject to moisture and environmental contaminants, the TS03, TS05, TS08, and TS19 series feature compact footprints as small as 3 x 2 x 0.6 mm as well as lifecycle ratings up to 300,000 cycles.
KNIPEX Tools offers new ANSI-compliant tethering system and 1000V insulated tools for its tethered tools and attachments line. The additions include one ANSI-rated lanyard, two adapter straps and seven 1000V insulated tools. The KNIPEX tethering system includes a captive eye to keep the ANSI-compliant lanyard (38″ in length) secured to the carabiner as well as a self-locking gate to prevent any unintentional opening.
SCHURTER has expanded its EC12 series to include a version for snap-in mounting. The new variant is designed to save panel space otherwise consumed by a mounting flange.
With the new practical DHS-150 door handle system, the slimline AZM150 solenoid interlock from Schmersal is now even easier to use. The ergonomic DHS-150 avoids the need for a separate door handle and is suitable for machine enclosures or fencing and for all standard aluminium profiles with a width of 40 mm. The robust door bolt is particularly useful on heavy swing doors and in for use in harsh environments.
AutomationDirect has recently added drive isolation transformers from Hammond Power Solutions to their growing lineup of transformers. Their rugged design allows them to withstand the mechanical stresses, voltage distortions, and heating associated with motor drives. In addition to all the benefits of a line reactor, they also provide isolation, common-mode noise and transient suppression, and prevent drive-induced ground currents from being passed upstream.
AutomationDirect has added additional sizes and styles of FATH T-slotted rail hardware. Several new types of fasters have been added including socket head cap screws, flanged button head socket cap Torx head screws, flat head socket cap screws, self-tapping screws, and reducer bushings. Additional sizes of button head socket cap head screws, roll-in T-slot nuts, hammer nuts, economy nuts, caster adapter plates, and transport base/plates have also been added.
Antimicrobial coatings inhibit the growth of microorganisms and even kill them. Perfectly suited for medical technology, sanitation areas, and the food service industry.
New SIMPLE Series graphic operation terminals from Mitsubishi Electric facilitate remote access.
