Schneider Electric, a global provider in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, as well as a global provider of circuit breakers, recently announced the launch of its new and improved PowerPacT Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB) series at the 2021 NECA Convention Nashville. The new PowerPacT series focuses on innovative technology designed to meet the needs of Schneider Electric’s customers, offering an improved circuit breaker solution for the future.
Industrial operators can realize cost savings in their applications using the new Allen-Bradley Bulletin 140MT motor protection circuit breakers and circuit protectors, which are available in sizes up to 40 amps. The new Bulletin 140MT products offer enhanced Type F combination motor controller ratings when used with Bulletin 100-C and 100-E contactors, enabling assembled starters to be applied without additional branch circuit protection.
Caparoc is the new individual modular system for overcurrent protection from Phoenix Contact.
With IE’s SmartCenter™ platform and line of integrated smart components the digital mine of the future has arrived today.
Electrical control panels are an integral part of any automated manufacturing process. While control systems are a fundamental aspect of electrical engineering, many people aren’t aware of the key control panel components required to function safely and reliably.
Weidmuller’s TTB measuring transformer terminal block series is a unique systematic offering of modular terminals that meet all the connection requirements of critical transformer (current/voltage) protection and measurement functions. The series is approved according to IEC 60947-7-1 Annex D – safety-relevant components captively connected to the modular terminal block. In addition, North American approvals; such as, UL/CSA (cURus) are available as well.
With the TERMITRAB complete product family from Phoenix Contact, we provide you with the narrowest surge protection for measurement and control technology. With immediate effect, the TTC-6P-4… protective devices for 4-conductor applications can also be used for applications that require test class D1. This applies both for product variants with Push-in connection technology and for products with screw connection.
Worldwide, there are nearly 50 lightning strikes every second, almost 1.4 billion strikes per year. Overvoltage due to lightning strikes or switching operations is one of the most common causes of electronic damage, to which the process industry is very vulnerable. Surge protection concepts are therefore crucial to plant and personnel safety. The new M-LB-2000 system from Pepperl+Fuchs―the experts in explosion protection―provides just such protection.
Hammond Power Solutions (HPS) has a new addition to their line of power quality products – HPS Centurion P Passive Harmonic Filter. It is specifically engineered to mitigate harmonic currents created by non-linear loads. The initial product release has ratings from 5 to 500 horsepower. It improves power quality by simultaneously reducing harmonics and improving true power factor, resulting in an efficient and reliable solution.
Using B&R automation technology in maritime environments is now easier and more flexible than ever thanks to additional certifications by DNV, KR, LR and ABS for the X20 control and I/O system. B&R has also expanded the temperature and input voltage ranges of the X20 system. Life at sea puts extreme demands on automation components, so the responsible certification authorities subject them to intensive testing.
The Grace Engineered Products Inside-Outlet GFCI employs a unique design by combining both an external and an internal control panel GFCI receptacle into one assembly.
STAHL safety isolators provide a compact, cost-effective, and easy-to-connect way to provide intrinsic safety and galvanic separation between a control system and field devices in a hazardous location. Digital and analog modules are available in single or dual-channel versions; a temperature module is also available. Digital and analog modules are rated for SIL applications, and analog modules are HART compatible.
Bayshore Networks, a provider of Active Protection for OT/ICS Networks, has added OTfuse Lite to its Modular Industrial Control Cyber Security Platform of products. OTfuse Lite breaks the $1000 price barrier at $999 MSRP and gives all the advanced features of the OTfuse product line including Advanced Threat Detection, Policy Learning and Policy Enforcement in a solid-state device with a 5-year warranty.
The FDM128 display for 8 LV devices is a 1-to-8 human machine interface (HMI). The main component is a 5.7 inch touch screen. The FDM128 display unit can be set up in one or any combination of IFE gateway, Acti9 Smartlink Ethernet, or PowerLogic EGX300 Ethernet gateway. The display unit can monitor and control up to 8 LV devices. The information displayed includes measurements, alarms, and operating assistance data.
With its new firmware, the SecurityBridge firewall now offers comprehensive protection for industrial automation networks. Not only does it protect the configurable safe small controllers PNOZmulti and the automation system PSS 4000, it also now enables control over data communication between any other subscribers outside of the Pilz range. The SecurityBridge was developed in line with the secure development process in accordance with the standard IEC 62443-4-1 and also respects the principle of “Zones and Conduits”.
