New Allen-Bradley 855X Hazardous Location Signaling Devices can help industrial operators meet the latest global hazardous-location ratings and certifications. The signaling devices include horns, beacons and combination horn-and-beacon units. In most cases, these new 855X devices (Series B) are drop-in replacements for the original 855X devices (Series A).
Wenglor rectangular 50 x 50 x 20mm photoelectric sensors from AutomationDirect include diffuse with background suppression, retroreflective, retroreflective for transparent objects, and through-beam models. The popular size of these Wenglor sensors makes them ideal as drop-in replacements for other higher-cost rectangular photoelectric sensor brands. Sensing ranges vary from 1200mm for background suppression sensors to 20m for through-beam models.
The modular safety gate system from Pilz offers individual safety gate solutions that are ideally tailored to the requirements of the most varied applications. Users benefit from an economical series connection, rapid diagnostics, additional control and pushbutton elements and an optional escape release. Different components can be combined to fit the application, allowing users to achieve an individual safety gate solution, ideally tailored to the respective application.
The Stride Field I/O family of modules provides a simple and economical means to connect inputs and outputs to a Modbus TCP communications network. Each module operates as a standalone Modbus TCP server, and can be configured via a built-in web server. Analog input, output and thermocouple modules have fully isolated or isolated-in-pairs channels for noise-sensitive applications.
E-Switch now offers pre-wired assembly as an option for its PV anti-vandal line. E-Switch provides a wide range of anti-vandal switches which are used in a vast number of industries and applications not only for their capabilities, but also for their aesthetics.
New disconnect switches from Altech offer safe and durable operation in standard and harsh environments. THe UL98 Series of open and enclosed disconnect switches are designed to operate industrial motors and other heavy duty industrial equipment power.
NKK Switch has enahcned its popular M Series with the introduction of a IP67 rated knurled toggle. The new toggle features a knurled, textured lever that enables a firm nonslip grip.
C&K’s new PNP3 Series sealed pushbutton switches for industrial and off-road transportation applications feature a low operating force. A no-cap option, further increases the versatility of this switch offering.
Belden expands the Hircschmann OCTOPUS family to include IP65/IP67 waterproof and dust-tight switches that allow fail-safe networks to be installed in a variety of application scenarios, even under the most difficult conditions.
On display at the 2019 Rockwell Automation Fair, GuardLink™ technology is a safety-based communications protocol that links safety to The Connected Enterprise. Allen-Bradley® Guardmaster® smart safety devices that feature GuardLink technology deliver information, advanced functionality, and flexibility. This technology helps enhance safety and increase machine- and plant-wide efficiency.
Siemens has introduced the Reyrolle 5 Series of protection relays to expand its product offering for medium-voltage and industrial power networks. Thanks to its withdrawable design, the Reyrolle 5 Series protection relay can be easily replaced without disturbing the switchgear connections. This reduces downtimes to a minimum and enables reliable and efficient lifecycle management.
TE Connectivity (TE), now offers EN50155 Managed Ethernet switches that enable secure and reliable Gigabit-speed networks in harsh network environments on railway rolling stock – even where vibration levels are extreme.
Contactor relays are switching devices for control and auxiliary circuits and are used for controlling, signaling and locking switching devices and switchgear. The SIRIUS 3RH2 contactor relays come with standard-compliant connection designations and a connection system that saves both time and installation overhead. This makes them particularly suitable for practical applications.
The PSRswitch is Phoenix Contact’s new safety switch for smart door safety and position monitoring in machines and assembly lines. The compact, RFID coded, non-contact safety switch is capable of connecting up to 30 sensors in a series while achieving SIL 3/PLe. When combining the PSRswitch with the PSR-MC42 PSRmini safety relay, machine builders can take advantage of IO-Link diagnostics to easily adapt their safety system for an IIoT-enabled future.
Sealed from both above and below the mounting surface, the rugedized RAMO Series emergency stop switches from RAFI offer an innovative solution that allows customers to reduce assembly time and wiring errors.
Carlo Gavazzi has developed a sereis of single-phase solid state relays and contactors with integrated monitoring features. The RG..M Series consists of solid state switches that integrate monitoring features for quick and timely failure detection, besides the switching function.
