September 9, 2021

AutomationDirect’s safety product offering now includes IDEM hazardous area safety devices. These safety devices provide similar functionality to their general-purpose counterparts but offer explosion-proof switching in hazardous locations.

All of these devices are manufactured with ATEX Exd IIC T6 certified explosion-proof contact blocks, which are encapsulated to contain explosions and prevent the ignition of hazardous materials.

New IDEM explosion-proof safety devices include tongue interlock safety switches, safety limit switches, and safety cable-pull switches. These devices are an excellent choice for use in the oil, chemical, pharmaceutical, and other hazardous industries.

AutomationDirect has also extended its existing line of general-purpose safety cable-pull switches. This new line extension allows for emergency cable lengths of up to 250 meters.

IDEM hazardous area safety devices start at $459.00, new extended length general-purpose cable-pull switches start at $169.00, and both have a 1-year warranty.

Littelfuse: 54100 and 54140 Miniature TMR Sensors with Enhanced Sensitivity and Power Efficiency

Littelfuse, Inc. has recently announced the release of its highly anticipated 54100 and 54140 miniature Tunnel Magneto-Resistance (TMR) effect sensors. These sensors offer unmatched sensitivity and power efficiency, revolutionizing the magnetic sensing industry. The key differentiator of the 54100/54140 sensors is their remarkable sensitivity and 100x improvement in power efficiency compared to Hall Effect sensors. These sensors offer activation in the x-y plane instead of the traditional z-axis, providing enhanced functionality.

Beckhoff: EL336x | EL336x-0100 Optimized Weighing Technology

The new EL336x and EL336x-0100 series of weighing technology terminals can be used to directly connect resistance bridges (strain gages) or load cells. 24-bit resolution, a 10-ksps sampling rate, and full bridge support enable precise recording of weight, strain, or torque. Integrated voltage generation from the terminal power contacts is used to supply the bridge directly and can be varied between 5 V and 10 V. The basic EL336x variant of the two terminals also has a combined digital input/output for each channel, which can be used for other functions such as local control of the output directly dependent on the analog value at the input.

What Is an IO-Link Absolute Rotary Encoder?

There are rotary encoders and IO-Link products, but what is an IO-Link absolute rotary encoder? It may be best to start with the rotary encoder. The rotary encoder is an electro-mechanical device that converts angular position into a digital signal. The rotary encoder can be incremental or absolute, depending on the need to know the exact position after a power cycle.

Festo: Pre-Configured and Assembled Air Preparation Units That Meet Safe Quality Food Guidelines

Festo introduces a line of pre-configured, assembled, and tested compressed air preparation units that not only makes specification and ordering faster and easier, but also ensures clean air in food and beverage production. Right out of the box, the new units meet the Safe Quality Food (SQF) guidelines of final filtration stage 0.01 micron (µm) and a particulate removal efficiency of 99.999% at the point of food and beverage contact. The units also cover most, if not all, requirements of both original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) standards for air flow, connection size, and particle class rating. While air preparation units have multiple modules, each assembled unit is easily ordered with a unique part number.

ABB: New Single-Phase Power Supplies Reduce Harmful CO2 Emissions

ABB launches its new CP-S.1 range of primary switch mode 24 V DC power supplies, combining efficiency and reliability with an unrivalled power-to-space ratio. With an efficiency of up to 94 percent, the CP-S.1 24/40.0 power supply is able to generate a 1.4 ton CO2 saving over a typical lifetime of ten years – compared to a device with 92 percent efficiency. This is equivalent to the same amount of CO2 required to charge 160,000 smartphones.
