SCHURTER’s prominent UMT-H surface mount ceramic fuse family now includes 40 A and 50 A current ratings with an impressive breaking capacity rating of 500 A at 125 VAC / 72 VDC. The series provides unprecedented overcurrent and short circuit protection performance in a package size of 5.3 x 16 mm. The UMT-H was originally developed to provide a smaller alternative to through-hole mounted 5 x 20 mm cartridge fuses, commonly used for primary circuit protection.
The easiest way to control the speed directly on the machine is to use an analog potentiometer. However, wearing gloves in dusty or humid environments, for example, makes operation more difficult. Therefore, the use of the robust SIRIUS ACT ID key-operated switch as a digital potentiometer is particularly suitable under these environmental conditions. This alternative with freely programmable IO-Link electronic module enables precise and fine-grained speed adjustment due to its tactile detent positions.
SOUTHCO has recently introduced the latest product in its successful line of magnetic catches, with a new version that combines strength and style. Constructed of corrosion resistant stainless steel, the M5 Magnetic Catch combines a highly polished finish with the holding power of rare earth magnets to provide a robust and attractive solution for keeping doors and panels open or closed.

Cinch Connectivity Solutions, a Bel group company, now offers a 2.92mm Quick Connect Adapter and High Frequency SMA Quick Connect Adapters, designed to adapt from a standard threaded jack to a Quick Connect Plug. These adapters are designed to allow for rapid test connections to devices using 2.92mm and SMA connectors, resulting in a more efficient testing process by reducing the time and effort required to connect and disconnect the test cable.
The new Power Panel C80 offers the combined advantages of a powerful controller and a modern operator terminal in a single HMI device. The C80 installation is compatible with B&R Automation Panels. Machine builders thus have full flexibility when using the new panel and can scale their machine to meet changing performance and cost requirements. With its low installation depth, the C80 multi-touch HMI is suitable for particularly compact machines where space in the control cabinet is limited.
binder has recently made key additions to its M16 connector series. They are versions that meet the very high data speeds required by the latest sensor-based automation systems and an ASIG-compliant model used in wireless networks including 5G. binder has been at the forefront of M16 connector development since the 1970s working to widen the range of applications for these versatile circular connectors.
The PTCB circuit breakers from Phoenix Contact are now approved for use in Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations. The entire family is Listed to UL 508 and Recognized to UL 2367. With the new approvals, the narrow circuit breakers meet the stringent requirements for installation in potentially explosive areas in North America. The PTCB family is ideal for 24 V DC applications that require high density and effective protected power distribution to multiple common loads.
Representing analog measurements digitally just got easier with the new S15C Analog to Pulse Pro converters from Banner. These converters are small, plug-on accessories that are designed to connect directly to a sensor or indicator and begin operating immediately, fitting seamlessly into your factory applications to convert analog sources into PFM or PWM signals.
Bourns, Inc. recently announced the addition of a new model series to its leading Multifuse Polymer Positive Temperature Coefficient (PPTC) resettable fuse product line. The new Bourns Multifuse MF-MSHT models are high temperature rated, automotive grade AEC-Q200 compliant and available in a standard 1812 surface mount package. In addition, the MF-MSHT model series features a low thermal derating factor, a maximum voltage range of 9 V – 42 V, and a hold current range of 200 mA – 1.75 A.
binder recently announced the new 818 Series: M8 D-Coded connectors. These will interest engineers who need to connect miniature sensors to Ethernet networks across applications that use the latest automation technology. These M8 D-Code connectors are specifically designed to support the high data bandwidths that are becoming common in smart factories as well as protecting from the variety of demanding environments often found in industry. When mated and locked they protect to IP67.
Littelfuse, Inc. recently launched a new building automation microsite (Littelfuse.com/Building-Automation). Developed to simplify the product selection process, this microsite makes it easier for customers to find technical information and specifications on solutions for their building automation system. “Building automation systems are at the heart of a smart building, encompassing everything from security cameras to HVAC systems,” said Debra Jayson.
Makita U.S.A., Inc. has recently announced their new 18V LXT Cordless 3/8” / 1/4” Sq. Drive Ratchet (XRW01).
