Eaton’s Arc Flash Relay (EAFR) provides reportedly unmatched switchgear protection. This relay reduces arc flash energy by quickly clearing the current feeding the arc. The sensitive light inputs with current permissive detection identify low power phase to ground arc faults. The EAFR works to prevent faults in medium and low-voltage switchgear, and the factory-installed Arc Flash Relay modules and sensors allow for simple integration into electrical assemblies.

A gold contact version is also available for switch-sensitive signals. Complete versions consisting of a relay, socket, holder, marker and function module are avaialble in this range.
CUI Devices’ Interconnect Group has recently announced the addition of M12 connector types with D coding to its line of circular connectors and circular cable assemblies. The CDM12 family offers a range of male or female jack or plug versions with 4-pin contact position options. These M12 D-coded connectors and cables also carry IP67 ratings to deal with harsh environments found in industrial and factory automation applications.
AutomationDirect has added Wall Lenk soldering irons and guns designed to join different metals to make a strong and permanent bond. Wall Lenk is a US-based company that has been manufacturing and providing top-quality soldering equipment for over 50 years. The new pencil-style soldering irons are compact and easy to use and include models up to 80 watts in corded versions, and 30 watts in cordless versions, with a variety of interchangeable/exchangeable tip options.
AutomationDirect has added NITRA CPS9E series cylinder position switches which are compact general-purpose switches designed to detect the position of a pneumatic cylinder’s magnetic piston. This feedback can be used by a control system to determine cylinder position, cycle count, and to confirm operation. These switches are manufactured specifically to fit into extruded or machined 1/4-inch 60-degree dovetail slots. They are superior to reed switches since they utilize solid-state technology with no moving parts for a longer life.
Panduit is pleased to announce the global release of its G6 PDU Series. The innovative G6 line marries the best-in-class form factor of the G5 Series with an upgraded intelligence card to bring faster performance along with new functions and cybersecurity improvements to customers. Among the main features of the G6 PDU is its low-profile design that saves rack space while increasing airflow. The device, which provides 128 times the memory of the G5, also offers incredible outlet density and the ability to daisy chain up to 32 PDUs.
Russelectric, A Siemens Business, introduces its new ATS Remote Annunciator (RTS-RA), a powerful accessory that brings together data from multiple Automatic Transfer Switches into a single display. The remote annunciator is designed to be configured by the customer. It allows monitoring of the position and status of up to eight Russelectric ATS types RTSCD and RPTCS, as well as viewing power data for each ATS and accessing current alarms and logged historical alarms. Users can initiate load tests and set timers remotely using the RS-422/485 Protocol to ATS. In addition, there is the ability to configure email alerts for alarms.
High-power applications can run more reliably when backed by the new QUINT HP AC UPS from Phoenix Contact. The uninterruptible power supply (UPS) includes Phoenix Contact’s UPS IQ technology and battery management system, so technicians can always access important data for quick troubleshooting. Previously, applications between 1.5 and 2.5 kVA required connecting two UPS modules and four or more batteries in parallel. The modular QUINT HP AC UPS saves space and reduces costs for larger applications. The panel-mounted platform has a battery capacity range of 7-200 amp hours and can monitor up to five battery units.
Nothing is too small to make a positive impact on our environment. As a result, WAGO have reimagined one of their best-known products – the 221 Series Splicing Connector. A variant made of partially bio-circular and recycled plastics has been created to keep existing resources in circulation. The connector thus lays a more sustainable footprint right at the start of the installation.
Growth in Industry 4.0, IoT/IIoT and Smart Factory technology is set to boost demand for OKW’s robust SMART-BOX industrial electronic enclosures. SMART-BOX (IP 66) is also ideal for control and systems engineering, safety technology, gateways and HVAC. These tough wall-mount and tabletop enclosures feature separate channels for the lid screws and mounting screws. This enables them to be installed ‘lid closed’, protecting the seal and electronics in harsh environments.
ROLEC’s robust commandCASE for industrial operating and control systems is now available in three versions – offering a choice of lid closures. Diecast aluminum commandCASE (IP 66) is designed to fit suspension arms, notably ROLEC’s profiPLUS and taraSMART ranges. The enclosures provide electronics designers with an elegant solution at an attractive price point. The three lid closure variants are: CC – hinged with a quick-action lockable closure; CCS – hinged and screw-fixed from the rear; CCV – screw-fixed from the rear.
The AT-KS-AK were specially developed for Keystone modules and equipped with a protective cover to ensure protection up to IP54. The adapter grommet AT-KS-AK is based on the proven icotek KT cable grommet and enables the easy snapping in of almost all modules based on the Keystone system. The polyamide body integrated into the grommet provides a stable and secure base for the modules used. A protective cover attached to the front protects the interface and can even be sealed for additional security.
