Banner Engineering: R50C Motor Driven Roller (MDR) Controller – Compact Plug-and-Play Motor Driven Roller Control

The R50C MDR Controller helps keep control of conveyors and other equipment in one system and gives system designers more efficient control of motor driven rollers using a PLC. Modbus communication, two configurable I/O channels, and a 0–18 volt analog output provide precision MDR control for a variety of conveyor systems, as the R50C is compatible with many different types of MDRs with integrated controls. Standard A-coded M12 connectors for sharing signals, and L-coded M12 pass-through connections for daisy chaining up to 16 amps of motor power, simplify installation of multiple motor driven roller controllers on a conveyor.

SCHURTER: FPAC RAIL – 3-Phase DIN Rail-Filter

SCHURTER launches a new FPAC Rail 3-phase filter series for DIN rail mounting. Thanks to the slim housing (44 mm), it takes up very little space on the mounting rail in the control cabinet. The single-stage filter is available with standard or high attenuation. A metal base plate ensures an excellent ground connection to the rail. Space is almost always at a premium in control cabinets for industrial applications in the 3-phase range (e.g. motor drives, control systems). SCHURTER addresses this problem with a complete new filter design that is just 44 mm in width.
