Carlo Gavazzi: DCT1, the DC Energy Transducer for Measurements in Fast Chargers

The near future for EV charging applications is mainly based on fast, ultra-fast, and hyper-fast chargers. Therefore, there is an increasing need for reliable and accurate metering systems to avoid the outdated “charge-by-time method” or the upstream AC meters which can make the end user also pay for the system power losses. The DCT1 is Carlo Gavazzi’s first and most suitable response to this need. A very flexible, simple, compact, and easy-to-integrate solution for energy measurement in fast chargers.

3 Ways the Blue e+ Filter Fan Simplifies Industrial Enclosure Climate Control

Simplified industrial enclosure cooling systems are rapidly rising up the ranks of priority for manufacturers as production environments continue to become more varied or diverse. While industrial filter fan cooling units can help manufacturers cut through the complexity of modern manufacturing via more streamlined, simplified design and operation, manufacturers still don’t fully realize the capacity of filter fan units to provide targeted cooling outputs that can keep pace with the speed and around-the-clock nature of today’s manufacturing landscape. However, Rittal’s new Blue e+ Filter Fan EC industrial cooling unit combines powerful, strategic cooling capabilities with the ability to both optimize productivity, reduce cooling costs, and decrease the chance of unplanned downtime.

Banner Engineering: R95C Hybrid IO-Link Hub

Controls engineers can more efficiently design remote I/O systems by connecting analog and discrete I/O to a single IO-Link hub. The R95C Hybrid IO-Link Hub reduces cost, wiring, and installation time in applications with a variety of I/O types in one area by offering four analog ports and four discrete ports. Analog signals can be mirrored to other ports for retrofitting existing analog sensors or to add visual indication for efficiency. Up to 4 amps can be shared and passed through ports to power devices, such as lighting, without needing to inject extra power via splitter cables. Convenient side ports help reduce cable damage by minimizing cable bend.
