(Wuppertal) The Schmersal Group has further developed its compact RSS260 safety sensor and equipped it with new software – the sensor now offers four additional, optionally selectable functions: – Feedback loop monitoring – Automatic restart / manual restart – Reset – Emergency stop monitoring. On the F0/F1 version, the RSS260 assumes the tasks of a safety relay module, i.e. monitoring of the movable safety guard as well as of the contactors directly actuated by the sensor outputs.
Harnessing the capabilities of Power over Ethernet (PoE), Banner’s R50C PoE Splitter delivers power and data in areas where a power supply can’t easily be connected. With separate power and data outputs, the PoE splitter can even power many non-PoE devices that would ordinarily require a power drop. PoE simplifies installation and expands deployment options by using PoE drops instead of incurring extra expenses associated with running power cabling. This offers considerable location flexibility for movable equipment such as mobile workstations.
Littelfuse, Inc. has recently announced the release of the new LST Varistor series.
