Rittal North America introduces the RiLine Compact System for power distribution in confined enclosures and small control cabinets. It is ideal for most small control panel applications and provides optimal use of panel space. For power demands below 100 A, the RiLine system is a safer, more cost-effective power distribution alternative to traditional wiring.
ERNI continues to expand its interconnect solutions designed for programmable logic/automation controllers, distributed control systems, remote I/O and other industrial automation applicaitons.Connectors offering 1.27 mm [.050”] pitch or less are becoming more common, while open pinfield interfaces offer the user maximum design flexibility for low speed and higher speed differential data.
Designed to replace traditional terminal blocks, the EF2 Series Zero ScrewTM connector delivers quick and secure one-step connection. By eliminating the need for screws, the EF2 Series terminals do not require inspection or retightening to ensure a stable and consistent connection like traditional terminal blocks. As a result, the screwless terminal block series significantly reduces the electrical wiring time and maintenance workload compared to conventional terminal blocks.
The AB-CO PURGE Model AP-01Z-02 Purge and Pressurization System is a Z-Type system designed specifically for small electrical enclosures with volumes up to 2 cubic feet (0.056 cubic meters). As a Z-Type purge and pressurization system, the Model AP-01Z-02 reduces the classification within the electrical enclosure used in a Class I, Division 2 (Groups A,B,C,D) and Class II, Division 2 (Groups F&G) hazardous environment from Division 2 to unclassified.
Sealed from both above and below the mounting surface, the rugedized RAMO Series emergency stop switches from RAFI offer an innovative solution that allows customers to reduce assembly time and wiring errors.
Orion Fans has expanded its DC axial fan product family with the addition of nine new IP68-rated series. Offering protection from dust and water, the IP68-rated DC fans are designed for a wide range of harsh environment applications.
Laird Thermal Systems’ highly efficient thermoelectric assemblies (TEAs) significantly improve performance and lowers operating costs of applications in rugged outdoor environments. Designed for applications like outdoor kiosks, battery backup cabinets, enclosures, and electronic cabinets, the Outdoor Coolers run at nominal voltages at either 24 or 48 VDC and offer dependable cooling capacities ranging from 100 to 480 Watts.
The next industrial revolution is here. New technology and automation solutions are catalysts for evolving your mining operations – helping make you more connected, efficient and productive. In order to optimize mine performance, miners must first be willing to embrace change. Embrace the Internet of Things (IoT).
The YS1700 Programmable Indicating Controller can be tailored for various applications by running a user program, and offers high reliability thanks to Yokogawa’s proprietary technology, user friendliness, and expandability. Standard models are smaller and lighter than earlier series, requiring less space for installation, and are compliant with international safety standards including the CE Mark and FM nonincendive (optional) approvals.
The PowerXL DA1 advanced variable frequency drive is ideal for demanding applications that are speed- and torque-dependent. Eaton’s PowerXL product family delivers outstanding performance regarding motor control and modularity.
Allen-Bradley’s Bulletin 5069 CompactLogix™ 5480 controllers are real-time controllers with Windows 10 IoT Enterprise running in parallel to the Logix control engine. The CompactLogix 5480 uses the same re-architected control engine deployed in the ControlLogix® 5580 and CompactLogix 5380 controllers.
Rittal, global leader for industrial enclosures, climate control, power management systems, and automation services, partnered with ABB and Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) to provide turnkey resilient micro-modular datacenters purpose-built for rough environments, which help customers turn data into action in real time.
Phoenix Contact’s 6-mm MINI Analog Pro family now includes a 4-20 mA/HART signal duplicator. The duplicator makes it possible for two devices (such as a display, PLC input card, or DCS) to receive the same signal simultaneously.
Carlo Gavazzi has developed a sereis of single-phase solid state relays and contactors with integrated monitoring features. The RG..M Series consists of solid state switches that integrate monitoring features for quick and timely failure detection, besides the switching function.
