With the new Xelity 10 TX IP67, Murrelektronik offers a line of robust, space-saving switches designed for the heavy traffic that comes with today’s installations. The ten port switches are available in three models: 10 x 100 Mbit/s, 10 x 1000 Mbit/s, and 2 x 1000 Mbit/s + 8 x 100 Mbit/s. Each model can also be ordered specifically for a ProfiNet system.
The Siemens SIMOVAC medium-voltage non-arc-resistant and SIMOVAC-AR arc-resistant controllers have a modular design incorporating up to two 12SVC400 (400 A) controllers, housed in a freestanding sheet steel enclosure. Each controller is UL 347 class E2, equipped with three current-limiting fuses, a non-load-break isolating switch, and a fixed-mounted vacuum contactor (plug-in type optional for 12SVC400).
Power and durability – these are the qualities that differentiate Weidmuller’s PROmax switched-mode power supplies from the competition. They can cope with continuous overloads of up to 20%. Even short-term peak loads of 300% occurring with high control cabinet temperatures will not affect these switched-mode power supplies. Offering high levels of scalability and full performance across a wide range of temperatures, they are particularly suitable for demanding requirements and the challenges of automation.
