JW Winco has expanded its range of indexing elements to include the lockable stainless steel indexing plungers.
OKW’s smart MINI-DATA-BOX is designed to protect miniaturized go-anywhere electronic devices.
CUI Devices’ Relays Group recently announced its continued product expansion with the addition of a new line of power relays. Ideal for high-level current switching in a range of industrial applications, measurement and control equipment, and safety systems, CUI Devices’ power relays boast impressive lead times and offer max switching currents from 5 A up to 40 A.
Honeywell has recently announced the release of its new operational technology (OT) cybersecurity solutions, designed to assist customers in defending the availability, reliability and safety of their industrial control systems and operations. The offerings, which include a new Advanced Monitoring and Incident Response (AMIR) dashboard and updated Cyber App Control, are designed to empower organizations with 24/7 intelligent threat detection across the expanding attack surface of their industrial control systems.
The increasing networking of machines, controls and IT systems in industrial plants leads to increasingly complex networks at the production level. To ensure reliable data exchange, high-performance Industrial Ethernet Switches with a high number of ports and data bandwidths are required. To this end, Siemens has now renewed the Industrial Ethernet Switches of its Scalance XC-/XR-300 series and upgraded them with additional functions for next-generation industrial networks.
When several safety devices should control the same output, it is quite common to connect them in series. But to reach PL e, serial connection is not possible and each device should have its own safety relay. Vital offers the capability to exclusively control smaller machine safety systems that would otherwise have required a programmable controller or multiple safety relays. With the Vital safety controller, up to 30 safety devices can be connected in series to one Vital and still reach PL e.
Würth Elektronik expands its WR-TBL range of terminal block connectors following the wire-protection principle and in the 10-mm pitch.
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.
PCB terminal block with lever technology from WAGO allows quick and easy wiring for cross-sections from 26 to 14 AWG.
On June 29, 2021, the PROFINET User Organization (PNO) published the PROFINET Cabling and Interconnection Technology – Guideline for PROFINET Version 5.0 , a new set of rules for PROFINET-compliant cabling in industrial equipment, systems, and plants. The ix Industrial mating face for Ethernet transmission represents a key new component in the SPC “Specific Passive Components” section.
C&K has recently enhanced the miniature KSC Tireless Endurance (TE) tactile switch series to include a 5.2 mm height version that offers longer travel.
AutomationDirect has added more intrinsically safe isolation barriers from STAHL. These modules ensure only a safe amount of energy resides in an electrical circuit, installed in a potentially explosive atmosphere, so that no sources of ignition are created. More digital, analog, and temperature modules, new frequency transmitter isolators, and a Zener Barrier for thermocouple signals have been added.
The MX-System from Beckhoff is a flexible, space-optimized and intelligent system solution that can completely replace conventional control cabinets, thereby opening up entirely new possibilities in plant automation.
Seifert Systems introduces the 4000 Series filter fans that includes 70 UL listed filter fan models designed for enclosure applications.
