EUCHNER: Modular Multifunctional Gate Box

February 21, 2022

If there is one area where applications are becoming ever-more complex, it’s safety engineering. EUCHNER has not only kept up with this trend with its Multifunctional Gate Box (MGB) safety door system, but has gone a step further by employing modular design to make the MGB2 Modular fully customizable for maximum optimization. The modular system features a separate locking module, bus module and submodules, making it suitable for implementing a wide range of additional functions.

In addition, the brand new bus module MBM is available in a version that connects to EtherCAT P, which means that every single function of the Multifunctional Gate Box 2 (MGB2 Modular) safety door system can also be used with EtherCAT P.

In this latest system, comprehensive diagnostic functions in the form of EtherCAT messages and the integrated web server provide a fast and detailed overview of the device status. Due to the ease with which parameters can be set, even replacing the system during servicing is a simple matter and takes no more than a few minutes.

 

– EtherCAT P with FSoE

– Gateway for up to 4 MGB2 Modular locking modules or MCM extension modules

– Up to 36 safe elements

– Maximum safety, category 4/PL e, SIL3

TE Connectivity: CPC Circular Plastic Connectors

Circular Plastic Connectors (CPC) are rugged and reliable connector systems suitable for many applications. CPC connectors are polarized for proper mating of connector halves, with removable contacts and a replaceable coupling ring that makes field repair easy. They are designed with a stabilized, heat-resistant, self-extinguishing thermoplastic material. These circular plastic connectors are trusted with their performance reliability and used anywhere signal and power either enter or exit a system.

Device Data: Do-It-Yourself Is History

Faster access to suitable, preferably standardised device data – that’s the daily maxim in project work these days. While the EPLAN Data Portal offers device data for millions of components, it can sometimes happen that the required device data isn’t found on the portal. Users have had to create or modify such data themselves until now, which is time consuming and sometimes cost intensive.
