Pepperl+Fuchs introduced the latest addition to its market-leading portfolio of purge and pressurization solutions at this year’s SPS fair in Nuremberg. The Bebco EPS® 6100 series was specially designed for use with large motors, drives, compressors, and enclosures in ATEX/IECEx Zone 1 hazardous locations. The largest purge and pressurization system available from Pepperl+Fuchs to this day, the automatic 6100 series system can purge enclosures that are larger than 12.2 m³ (450 ft³). This new system is ideally suited for applications in the chemical, petrochemical, and oil and gas industries.
The new B&R X20CP3687X controller combines the performance of an industrial PC with the compact design of the X20 controller series. With powerful processing, additional RAM and integrated onboard flash memory, the high-performance controller can handle complex control algorithms or even robotics applications that previously would have called for an industrial PC.
The new SIMATIC Drive Controller saves space by combining a controller with motion control and a drive control in a single device. Integrated technology I/Os and powerful communication interfaces make sophisticated machine designs possible. The SIMATIC Drive Controller brings together what sophisticated machine designs need: Motion control functions of the Technolgy CPU with a versatile drive system – all in a single compact controller.
nVent Electric plc has announced a program that helps ensure customers in the United States get the solutions they need when their businesses demand it. Available through authorized nVent HOFFMAN distributors, nVent’s new Express Modification program offers customers modified enclosures that are shipped within 10 days.
Pepperl+Fuchs has launched a rugged LC20 loop detector that features a diagnostic tool and intuitive app. The new LC20 loop detector, combined with the induction loops installed in the ground, detects various vehicle combinations and quickly diagnoses and visualizes the data via a user-friendly app.
Using the IO-Link communication system to connect intelligent sensors and actuators to the controller significantly reduces the amount of time required. Sensors can connect quickly and without any errors using a pre-assembled cable, for example, while automated commissioning is also made possible by means of downloading parameter sets.
