Stewart Connector, a Bel group company, and world class manufacturer of high-speed connectors used in data communication applications announces the release of the M12 X-Code Field Terminatable Plug, targeting environments where rugged connectors are needed to power and communicate with equipment widely found in today’s manufacturing environments.
A lot of safety-related troubleshooting requires the input of a safety expert, but what happens when you need answers ASAP and a safety specialist isn’t available? With the right technologies, many safety issues can be resolved without extensive expertise. Omron is developing a new concept dubbed “interactive safety” in which solutions are designed to help the average operator take the necessary steps to troubleshoot and maintain a safety system.
Designed to reduce power consumption by up to 50% in a variety of AC fan applications, electronically commutated (EC) fans from Orion Fans offer a significantly lower‑power, energy‑efficient cooling solution. The AC‑input fans utilize a brushless DC motor and incorporate voltage transformation within the motor for significantly lower power consumption. For custom requirements, dual‑speed EC fans can be programmed at the factory to deliver even more power savings.
The SNAP-IDC5-SW and SNAP-IDC5-SW-NC modules provide four channels of contact status input. Each module supplies 15 volts of power to an external dry contact switch. The SNAP-IDC5-SW senses switch closure; the SNAP-IDC5-SWNC senses switch opening. Each user-supplied switch is connected with two wires.
The podis power bus system provides decentralized and flexible power distribution for factories, airports and warehouses. With its unique design and connection technology, the podis system is easy, fast, & safe to install and maintain. The new 5-core tray cable system provides higher load capacity to allow for more drives per segment and longer cable sections. Compared to other installations that require long cable lengths, the voltage drop along the bus is significantly reduced.
The HYTEC‐100 is designed to control the relative humidity inside of enclosures and electrical panels. The HYTEC‐100 starts the heater in order to avoid formation of condensation in enclosures designed to protect electronic circuits, preventing the absorption of moisture by electrical and electronic components inside of the enclosure.
What is short-circuit current rating (SCCR)? The maximum available short-circuit current an electrical component can sustain without the occurrence of excessive damage when protected with an overcurrent protective device. Determining the SCCR of a complete industrial control panel or control switchgear can be challenging, especially if proper considerations are not made during the initial stages of the component selection process.
Littelfuse, Inc., a global manufacturer of technologies in circuit protection, power control, and sensing, recently announced the expansion of its SPXI series in-line solar fuses to include 35 to 60 amperage models. Designed to integrate into in-line assemblies within a wire harness, these 1500 V DC solar fuses protect photovoltaic (PV) installations from overloads and short circuits to minimize damage to solar panels.
The ODU AMC® High-Density Chrome-Plated is a miniature connector solution design that provides the highest possible number of contacts in the most compact space.
Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. announced the release of its next generation MELSERVO-J5 Series of AC servo motors, amplifiers, and motion control units. The MELSERVO-J5 Series brings performance, reliability, flexibility and efficiency to a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, packaging, printing, converting, material handling and more. MELSERVO-J5 is a result of continuous innovation and improvement upon the MELSERVO Series of products that Mitsubishi Electric has produced since 1988.
Phoenix Contact introduces six new universal temperature transducers. These new additions to the MACX MCR family are loop-powered and have two channels. The new modules include two non-Ex and two Ex I versions in two different mounting formats: head-mount and DIN rail-mount. The temperature transmitters support more than 28 different temperature sensors.
Designed for wired applications, the STYLE-CASE handheld enclosures from OKW are perfect for remote controls, notably in medical and health care electronics as well as office, industrial and household controller applications.
With the SIPART PS100, Siemens is presenting a new positioner that is impressively easy to commission and highly robust. The SIPART PS100 offers fast and reliable positioning for standard applications.
The genvi LGV Series control valve from Lee Company is a 3-port solenoid valve with high flow rates and low power in a miniature, 10mm package.
The Rugged CAN Keypads from EAO feature a low back panel depth and robust clip-in or screw-in mounting that allows for easy, flexible installation, either vertically or horizontally. The Rugged CAN Keypads are designed for rugged applications in heavy duty and special vehicles.
Wire-to-wire ZE064W Series connector from Hirose Electric combines high vibration and high heat resistance with a space saving design for demanding automotive, agricultural and construction vehicles.
