Phoenix Contact: Trio Power AC/DC Bidirectional Power Supply for Rack Mounting

The Trio Power AC/DC power module from Phoenix Contact with 20 kW of power for 19″ rack mounting enables bidirectional power conversion in various areas of application. With connection technology on the front and a DC voltage of up to 1,000 V, it can be used in a variety of ways, but is particularly suitable for use in battery storage systems. The power supply for rack mounting with 20 kW of power is used in various areas of application, such as energy storage systems, e-mobility, and DC technology. The connection technology directly on the front ensures flexible and easy mounting. The module can therefore be installed and maintained conveniently in 19″ racks without access to the rear, for example in energy storage units.

AutomationDirect: AchieVe FDM Series 12mm Tubular Photoelectric Sensors

AutomationDirect has recently added AchieVe FDM series 12mm tubular photoelectric sensors that offer a rugged metal construction, high IP67 protection ratings, and sensing distances up to 4 meters. These photoelectric sensors feature selectable light-on/dark-on operation, a 10 to 30 VDC operating voltage range, potentiometer or teach-in button sensitivity adjustment, and a fast 1kHz switching frequency. Highly visible red LED models are offered with the polarized reflective sensing style, while infrared models are available in diffuse and through-beam styles.

ifm efector: New MVQ301 Positioner for Industrial Valves

ifm efector, inc. recently introduced its new MVQ301 process valve positioner. The positioner is the third-installation in ifm’s MVQ series of pneumatic quarter-turn valve sensors. Supported by IO-Link, the MVQ301 is a valve positioner that also functions as a valve sensor, providing accurate feedback while positioning the solenoid valve to an exact degree. The new sensor features a standard M12 connection and 5-pin cable for both feedback and control, and is equipped with self-learning algorithms embedded into the sensor ensuring precise valve positioning; continuous learning allows the smart sensor to study the valve it controls, and improve its control performance each time the valve moves.
