The Bitronics M871 (Single Line, Dual Bus) and M872 (Dual Line, Dual Bus) IEDs provide a complete solution for monitoring and recording in substation applications. They provide a scalable, low-cost distributed disturbance recording solution that meets all three PRC-002 requirements in a single unit and supports peer-to-peer GOOSE messaging for cross-triggering without hard-wired contacts.
After a lengthy period of connector manufacturers pursuing various approaches with regard to M12 PushPull locks, IEC 61076-2-010 is now finally bringing a system that is consistent across the industry. Or at least that is the opinion held by Dirk-Peter Post, Head of Global Product Management Circular Interface Connectors, Harting Electronics, and Jürgen Sahm, Senior Specialist Product Marketing Circular Connectors, Phoenix Contact, in this interview.
TTI, Inc., a distributor of electronic components, was pleased to recently introduce a suite of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), making it possible for engineering and procurement customers to access inventory, pricing information, and place orders in real time.
Design and controls engineers can now more easily access, configure and manage HART devices using the new Allen-Bradley FLEX 5000 highly integrated HART I/O modules. The simplified programming experience, available with the Studio 5000 Logix Designer application, can help simplify design, maintenance and operational productivity.
In industrial IoT, all the components of a production environment are interconnected via a digital infrastructure and must therefore be capable of communicating with each other – the power supplies included. This why Weidmüller’s PROtop devices also feature the topGUARD load monitoring system and a plug-in communication interface. topGUARD is a modular electronic load output system comprising a feed-in module and several connected output modules.
The new Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) connector system from Phoenix Contact can lower applied costs and help future-proof networks. As engineers design smarter machines, buildings, and factories, SPE will be a key technology in an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) ecosystem. The first available products include IP20 and IP67 PCB-mount device and panel feed-through connectors, along with patch cables. The IP67 products are designed to the popular M8 connector style.
A sudden power outage can be a critical issue for businesses and organizations. If something happens to the power, then it’s important to get things up and running as soon as possible. For example, a construction company that is working in a remote or isolated location may be at risk for power outages. A back-up generator will minimize the risk of the operation losing power and the project getting significantly delayed.
In this modern age, the world around us is becoming more connected than ever before. Internet connected devices give us many conveniences in our personal lives, but how can we use this technology in the industrial environment? Let’s discuss the benefits of adding remote connectivity to your machines.
Sterling Systems & Controls, Inc. is a dealer in custom engineered and manufactured automatic Material Batching and Weighing Systems. These custom batching systems prewired are automatic ingredient batching systems supplied “Prewired” for easier and less costly overall installation.
Rockwell Automation, Inc. recently announced availability of its new Allen-Bradley VersaView 6300 box PCs and thin clients to deliver computing performance in compact, durable and affordably priced packages. The VersaView 6300 box PCs and thin clients fit in the palm of a hand, making them the smallest industrial computers to date from Rockwell Automation. The compact design can help users realize valuable panel-space and reduce costs.
Snap action dome switches from Keystone Electronics are ideal for keypad arrays that require long life or a sealed interface.
Saelig has developed ComfilePi CPi-A150WR – a Raspberry Pi-based industrial PC with a 15” touch-panel display
OKW has further expanded its range of IN-BOX industrial electronic enclosures. The transparent-lid version is now available in polycarbonate (PC) for extra strength and flammability resistance.
Designed to provide interlock protection on hinged, sliding or removable guard doors, AutomationDirect has announced it now offers IDEM solenoid locking RFID tongue interlock safety switches.
