Allied Electronics & Automation now offers Banner Engineering’s Snap Signal portfolio of modular, brand agnostic, plug-and-play IIoT solutions, including the new Snap Signal DXMR90 industrial controller. Banner’s Snap Signal solutions are designed to leverage machine data from automation islands scattered throughout the factory floor, convert disparate data signals from both condition monitoring and process monitoring solutions into a unified protocol and transmit that insightful diagnostic data to a dedicated PLC or SCADA control system for local processing or an edge device used to monitor equipment conditions in the cloud.
Configurable small controller PNOZmulti 2 with ground-breaking software version 11.0 and new base unit tailor-made for applications and no licence costs.
Multi-Purpose Management Devices are flexible lines of site and zone Managers. They allow facility Managers and Contractors to install and manage integrated solutions for HVAC, lighting, and metering. They are also a quick and efficient link between multiple devices based on many standard protocols. The Building Expert web building energy management system is embedded in the MPM Devices.
The T3 series Bacnet programmable controller is a low cost performer with big system features. There are three versions with various I/O configurations and can be expanded with external i/o modules to form a complete building automation solution. Product highlights include a full featured building automation system without the big system cost, and no licenses or recurring cloud fees with free updates.
An enhanced version of Banner’s XS26 Safety Controller is now available with built-in In-Series Diagnostics (ISD). This technology simplifies installation, provides comprehensive real-time data about automation safety equipment, and prevents or reduces downtime. The expandable XS26-ISDd allows users to configure and monitor up to 394 connected safety devices.
Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. is announcing the release of the common DC bus servo drive (MELSERVO-J5D) solution. MELSERVO-J5D servo amplifiers are ideal for medium to large servo applications that require multiple drive units capable of managing regenerative energy. Available in 400V and 1kW to 7kW capacity, MELSERVO-J5D servo amplifiers expand the existing drive capabilities for the MELSERVO-J5 portfolio and are compatible with MELSERVO-J5 servo motors (HK-KT/ST/RT/MT).
With the new AL200S PROFIsafe IO-Link module from ifm electronic, it is now possible to operate standard safety sensors and actuators via IO-Link.
Panelicity Series 36 is a powerful process panel controller in a small package with pre-defined displays, alarms, trends, and standard industrial control strategy templates.
B&R has equipped the ACOPOS P3 servo drive with safe torque determination. This allows the use of numerous safety functions that previously would have required an external sensor. The cost of machinery directive compliance is reduced. Safe torque determination is based on an internal current measurement and enables the safety functions Safely Limited Torque (SLT), Safe Speed Observer (SSO) and Safe Brake Test (SBT).
The DXMR90 is a central component of Banner’s Snap Signal product portfolio. This industrial controller houses a processor that receives signals from sensors and other connected devices, through four dedicated Modbus ports. The DXMR90 combines all of these signals into one unified stream of insightful device data, which can be exported out through industrial Ethernet protocols.
You can now also control NORDAC FLEX frequency inverters from NORD DRIVESYSTEMS via ASi-5 – and take advantage from greatly reduced costs and easy commissioning. The new ASi-5 motor module for NORDAC FLEX (BWU4371) makes use of ASi-5 to change process control ramps and speed cyclically, thereby enabling extremely quick adjustment. An optimized process data image is provided for this purpose.
In many applications it is essential that analog variables such as pressure, flow, and temperature are monitored in order to ensure safe automation, so Wieland Electric has now extended the portfolio for its samos PRO COMPACT safety controller. With three new input modules, namely SP-SAC, SP-SAR4, and SP-SACR22, it is now possible to reliably detect and further process analog signals as well.
The new MX-System from Beckhoff is quite simply a revolution in control cabinet construction. With the launch of this system, the company now offers a flexible, space-optimized, and intelligent system solution that completely replaces the conventional control cabinet in a bid to revolutionize control cabinet construction and automation altogether. When it comes to the automation of machines or plants, system supplier Beckhoff Automation offers virtually all of the required components in a wide performance range…
AutomationDirect has added new ReeR MOSAIC safety controller components for expanded capability. The Reer MOSAIC (MOdular SAfety Integrated Controller) makes it easy to manage safety systems and sensors. It is modular, expandable, and configurable for managing all safety functions of a single machine or an entire plant. The new MOSAIC-MV series speed monitoring expansion modules are an excellent addition…
With the servo amplifiers PMC SC6 and PMC SI6 you benefit from flexible, combinable drive controllers in a compact design. For six axes in the control cabinet you need an overall width of just 180 mm! Fast commissioning of the PMC SI6 and PMC SC6 is achieved by means of the electronic motor nameplate, which provides all mechanically and electronically relevant motor data in digital form – easily and with safe parameter settings.
