Panduit: Improved VeriSafe Absence of Voltage Tester

The new VeriSafe 2.0 Absence of Voltage Tester (AVT) leverages the same test in the existing Verisafe AVT, but with many new features and expanded applications. With the push of a button, workers can quickly determine voltage status and see an active indication when the absence of voltage is confirmed. The automated test minimizes risk by verifying the absence of voltage before equipment is accessed, making it easier for workers to verify an electrically safe work condition.

Why the NY Series Industrial PC (IPC) is the Perfect Host for Omron AVEVA Edge

Omron’s partnership with AVEVA Edge makes machine visualization easier than ever. Although this solution is designed to work well across all industries regardless of platform, some platforms work even better – such as the Omron NY Series Industrial PC, or NY IPC for short. Omron AVEVA Edge is a powerful, affordable, and easy-to-use supervisory data control and acquisition (SCADA) software with a custom tag/variable-based driver set for Omron controllers and devices.
