AutomationDirect: BLOCK PM Series Mini Power Supplies and Redundancy Module

August 23, 2024

AutomationDirect has added the BLOCK PM series mini power supplies which feature a compact form factor, excellent transient voltage protection, and an affordable price.

They are robust and adaptable for a range of applications, offering performance and reliability without the higher cost of full-featured power supplies.

The new BLOCK PM-0624-100-0 redundancy module prevents costly downtime by monitoring two matched BLOCK power supplies and switching to a backup when a failure occurs. The module also decouples the power supply outputs to prevent one supply from overloading the other.

BLOCK PM series power supplies offer 24 to 96W models with 12 or 24 VDC adjustable outputs and start at $49.50; the BLOCK PM redundancy module accepts power supply inputs up to 144W and is priced at $98.00.

Phoenix Contact: IP67 TRIO Power Supplies with NEC Class 2 Output

The new IP67 TRIO power supplies from Phoenix Contact can be mounted directly on machines or in the field, providing stable power to localized control systems at the edge of an application. The devices have UL 1310 certification and can create energy-limited NEC Class 2 circuits. Direct installation puts the power where it’s needed and reduces cable lengths. It also frees up space in the control cabinet and can eliminate the need for a junction box. The devices are designed for smaller or sensitive loads, such as those for controllers, sensors, or actuators.

How Omron’s Newest Photoelectric Sensors Achieve Reliable Detection for a Wide Range of Applications

Stable detection can be a challenging proposition on flexible manufacturing lines. When packaging designs and container shapes are frequently changed, manufacturers must typically select from a wide range of sensor candidates for each object to be detected and each installation distance. This dramatically increases the number of selection steps.
