The United Nations estimates that world population will climb from 7 billion to 9 billion by 2050. This means higher demand for food for the growing population, and more work for the farmers to produce more food.
PC-based control for mining. Sustained cost pressures caused by low raw material prices are forcing mining companies to seek solutions that optimize productivity and reduce costs. In order to ensure competitiveness, the tradition-steeped mining industry is relying increasingly on intelligent automation solutions.
A “stand-alone” unit to monitor and control the many functions at the belt head, the BC-Pro Conveyor Belt Controller is designed to oversee any area involving the transfer of materials in a mining, tunneling, quarrying or processing operation.
Eaton’s specialized panels were specially designed for the tough pumping installations associated with applications in mining operations and tunnelling projects. The panels are intended for use in non-hazardous, resistance or solidly grounded installations and up to 600 Vac.
The DEK Wireless Monitoring Kit is a standalone preventive maintenance solution for simple independent monitoring of outdoor applications, from agriculture and water treatment to mining and manufacturing. This kit contains everything to deploy an end-to-end solution to capture data, like vibration, temperature, humidity, tank level, duty cycle and pressure. The kit is integrated into a weatherproof enclosure with all components necessary to eliminate guesswork and ensure a working solution.
Hammond Power Solutions (HPS) has a new addition to their line of power quality products – HPS Centurion P Passive Harmonic Filter. It is specifically engineered to mitigate harmonic currents created by non-linear loads. The initial product release has ratings from 5 to 500 horsepower. It improves power quality by simultaneously reducing harmonics and improving true power factor, resulting in an efficient and reliable solution.
With the new TRIO POWER power supply with the IP67 degree of protection specially developed for applications in the field, you can ensure high system availability even in extreme ambient conditions. With the robust die-cast aluminum housing, the power supply is waterproof and dustproof, highly resistant to shock and vibrations, and has high electric strength. With fast installation directly at the load, you save on cabling length, reduce line losses, and gain control cabinet space.
Metal enclosures manufacturer METCASE has further invested in new technology to meet growing demand for cases and front panels printed with photo-quality legends, logos and graphics. METCASE first introduced digital printing five years ago. Now increased demand has prompted the company to double its capacity. The new equipment is slightly larger than the existing 1800 x 1800 dpi flatbed printer – and 40% faster.
The Ferret Plus, designed and engineered by Ferret Tools, features the world’s first-ever non-contact voltage detector to help identify live cables from a greater reach than ever before. Based on the award-winning electronic design of the original Ferret, the Ferret Plus is perfect for someone who loves having the latest technology with all the bells & whistles.
ABB has recently announced the release of ReliaGear LV MCC. The low voltage motor control center is built for simplicity and durability. Designed for safety, this low-voltage MCC was created to meet customer needs across a wide range of applications with a focus on smart MCC solutions. ReliaGear LV MCC is UL/cUL 845 listed and available globally in all ANSI markets where NEMA standards are prevalent and/or required.
The MSP40 switch offers a unique combination of features – all designed to help network engineers and system integrators keep pace with growing bandwidth requirements in large-scale industrial networks. As more data is transferred to the network layer (Layer 3), the MSP40 switch can easily adapt to these high data levels by enabling each port to support Gigabit speeds.
Pepperl+Fuchs develops purge and pressurization system designed for use with large enclosures in Zone 1 hazardous areas often found in chemical/petrochemical and oil and gas applications.
The innovative MARKINGENIUS® MG3 technology offers a universal and fast identification system. The thermal transfer printer quickly marks any brand of terminal blocks, and also creates wire markers, panel rating plates, push button legends and more.
Stewart Connector recently expanded the SealJack Cable Applied Connector series to support Cat 6a applications. The SealJack Cable Applied Connector series now supports Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a performance levels through IP67 plug kits, cable assemblies, and cable applied jacks.
