As the manufacturing industry evolves and changes, there are often space constraints for installing products in existing cabinets or machines. To keep up with changing connectivity requirements while saving you time and effort, the EDS-2000-EL Series unmanaged switches include 5-and 8-port Ethernet options that provide a small footprint, long-lasting durability and low latency to ensure a quicker response around MES applications.
Emerson has launched a low-cost upgrade for electrical heat tracing systems with its new Nelson AXPC100-CM-GP and CM-GP microprocessor-based digital controllers, engineered to accurately control, monitor and maintain the process temperatures of industrial pipes or tanks in ordinary (non-hazardous) locations. Ideal for replacing aging electro-mechanical thermostats, the controllers achieve cost savings by eliminating the need for several components.
CUI Devices’ new slide switch offering includes compact package sizes as small as 10 x 2.5 x 5.9 mm for space-constrained applications.
Simplifying installation, NKK expands low profile FF01 emergency stop swtich series to include 12″ wire leads.
Yokogawa Electric Corporation recently announced that Yokogawa and Shell have jointly developed Platform for Advanced Control and Estimation R5.03 and would release it on June 2 as a solution under the OpreX Asset Operations and Optimization family. Platform for Advanced Control and Estimation is a software suite that brings together Shell’s advanced plant process control technology and Yokogawa’s real-time control technology to help customers improve productivity by increasing product yield and reducing energy consumption.
The future of automation starts with IO-Link. Sensors and actuators are the eyes and ears of your equipment. Your machines and processes are limited by what your sensors can tell you. What if you can get more information without increasing cost, engineering time and complexity? What if ifm told you your existing infrastructure could already provide more insight?
The new device connector clearly sets a signal for the future in the area of pluggability, as there is no comparable system on the market. The special features of the new product all revolve around flexible and simple assembly. This is achieved by double conductor connections, which are equipped with a push-in spring, the possibility to prefabricate the components at separate locations and last but not least also by the suitability for automatic wiring.
IBOCO Dinosaur Duct is a unique product offering, that is a flexible, resilient and efficient harnessing solution to your wiring needs. Dinosaur Duct is ideal for wiring to cabinet doors, control panels and for electronic equipment. This product is manufactured with non-toxic self-extinguishing Polypropylene. It comes in Grey RAL 7030 or White. IBOCO Dinosaur Flexible Ducts has Self-Adhesive.
binder’s comprehensive product offering provides a circular connector series for many industrial application sectors. Now, with a new accessory, binder can improve two of its circular connector series with increased security and safety as required by a range of applications. With new locking clips, binder is meeting the increasing demand in the snap-in segment.
Introducing the SMD PCB terminal block with push-button and Push-in CAGE CLAMP connection technology from WAGO. The SMD PCB features a push-in termination of solid conductors, and convenient termination/removal of fine-stranded conductors via push-button and operating tool at a height of just 2.7 mm. Available in tape-and-reel packaging.
The U1000 Industrial Configured Drive package provides all the low harmonic and regenerative benefits of a U1000 in a UL Type 1 or UL Type 3R enclosure, with space for several commonly used options, such as reactors, circuit breakers, etc. This configured package is rugged and reliable, specifically designed for tough industrial environments.
Almost every enclosure will need some kind of modification to be useful. In house modifications can be tedious, over-complicated, and a distraction from your core business. A third party shop can add time and expense. Hammond Manufacturing can help you by delivering quality products made to your exact specifications. Hammond offers a wide selection and massive inventory ready to be modified.
When it comes to Industry 4.0, the Industrial Internet of Things and digital transformation, the process industry —especially the field within the process plant—has been the blind spot of the industrial landscape. An innovative technology developed in cooperation with twelve companies and four standards organizations is finally putting an end to this: with the Ethernet Advanced Physical Layer, or Ethernet-APL for short.
AutomationDirect has added Quabbin 600V control cable to our extensive selection of cable offerings. These cables are ideal for use in control panels, conduits, and where superior electrical properties are required. The smaller diameter design for this cable reduces cost and the space required inside panels and conduits. This cable is available in shielded and unshielded versions, ranging from 20AWG to 14AWG, with 2 to 25 conductors.
The Scalance MUM856-1 – the first industrial 5G router from Siemens – is available now. The device connects local industrial applications to public 5G, 4G (LTE), and 3G (UMTS) mobile wireless networks. The router can be used to remotely monitor and service plants, machines, control elements, and other industrial devices via a public 5G network – flexibly and with high data rates.
The EL2044 digital output terminal connects the binary 24 V DC control signals from the automation device on to the actuators at the process level with electrical isolation. The EtherCAT Terminal contains four channels that indicate its signal state by means of light emitting diodes. The integrated diagnostics can be evaluated in the controller and is indicated by the LEDs.
