binder: 808 Series Field-Wireable M8 Connectors

binder develops robust and economical connectivity solutions for use in Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE). The miniaturized industrial connectors of the 808 series are equipped with screw locking. They support the transmission of data and electrical power in future-proof automation solutions according to the SPE standard. Thanks to the established and compact M8 design, the connectors can be beneficially integrated into standard sensor technology housings.

Emerson: New I/O Interface Software Helps Future-Proof Operations, Reduce Modernization Costs up to 40%

Emerson has recently released DeltaV IO.CONNECT, a new subscription software service designed to help plants simplify modernization with an open architecture pathway that makes it possible to transition to more efficient control schemes without the need to completely overhaul existing infrastructure. In a traditional plant with tens of thousands of I/O points and many controllers, this can save hundreds or thousands of hours of labor and up to 40% of the capital required for a total rip-and-replace upgrade.

How GFCIs Empower Panel Builders to Protect Against Electrical Shock and Save Lives

With power, comes great responsibility. A panel builder who can effectively integrate ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) into a system can make the difference between life and death. Ground-fault circuit protection is one of the most effective preventative measures against electrical shock because it actively reacts to irregular electrical conditions, regardless of a worker’s qualifications or use of personal protective equipment (PPE).
