Schneider Electric has enhanced its EcoStruxture™ TriconexTM Safety View, the industry’s first dual safety- and cybersecurity-certified bypass and alarm management software application.
Condensation, heavy precipitation, powerful water jets: When moisture meets electricity, a short circuit can happen quickly. Encapsulation is a proven solution. But now reliable moisture protection for splicing connectors can be achieved even more quickly and easily with the WAGO Gelbox. It is ready for immediate use in a wide range of low- and extra-low voltage applications.
As a control panel shop, UCEC creates industry specific panels for a variety of major markets including food and beverage, water and wastewater, life sciences, industrial, oil and gas, packaging and more. These panels can look very different from one another and serve different functions within those markets, but their insides are far from different. Similar to humans and other mammals: vastly different exteriors, with basically the same interior parts and functionality.
Pepperl+Fuchs, Inc. recently announced the inclusion of several HMIs into Rockwell Automation’s Encompass Program. The Encompass Partner Program is part of the PartnerNetwork.

On January 20, 2021, Yokogawa Electric Corporation announced that it would be releasing CENTUM VP R6.08, an enhanced version of the CENTUM VP integrated production control system for industrial plants, and released it two days later on January 22. CENTUM VP is a core product in the OpreX Control and Safety System solutions family. This release delivers enhancements that drastically reduce the amount of work needed to upgrade a control system’s CPU module, including a newly developed utility kit and standards certification for individual CPU modules.
Designed to house electrical, electronic, hydraulic or pneumatic controls and instruments, the Type 4 two-door freestanding enclosure from Hammond Manufacturing provides protection where equipment may be hosed down or otherwise be very wet, or in specific applications.
Get smart with the fully programmable IDEC SmartRelay, a compact, expandable CPU that can replace multiple timers, relays and counters. Each CPU houses a real-time clock and calendar, and supports optional expansion I/O modules to enhance your control and monitoring applications. Program and edit using either the on-board selection buttons and display interface, or our programming software, WindLGC.
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.
The MONITOUCH X1 Series of is a single programmable operator interface unit that handles everything from on-site data collection to management operations.
Designed for harsh environments, the PSE piezoelectric switch comes with a pre-assembled polyurethane cable to offer maximum flexibility and the highest IP protection during installation. The housings of the factory assembled piezoelectric PSE family are made of stainless steel 1.4462. This steel is characterised by its particularly high resistance to corrosion, which is essential in areas with high humidity. The PSE switches offer maximum reliability and a long service life (20 million actuations). Hermetically sealed housings make the PSE with cable predestined for use in particularly harsh and inhospitable applications.
Yokogawa Electric Corporation has recently developed the Collaborative Information Server (CI Server) and will be releasing it to the market in January 2021 as part of the OpreX Control and Safety System family. The solution will integrate the handling of all kinds of data from plant facilities and systems to enable the optimized management of production activities across an entire enterprise, and provide the environment needed to remotely monitor and control operations from any location.
Phoenix Contact has increased the efficiency and power density of its popular STEP POWER power supplies. The third generation of STEP POWER keeps the same footprints as the previous version, measuring just 55 millimeters deep and with widths starting at just 18 millimeters. The STEP 3 power supplies were designed primarily for the building automation industry and have EN 60355-1 certification.
In the public water utilities sector, plant operators must ensure a reliable water supply to all consumers, while at the same time getting by with tight budgets. Their requirements include reliability through redundancy and safe communication of all components with the control system.
A new high-current variant joins WAGO’s line of 3-phase power measurement modules. The new 750 Series Module measures DC and AC currents via external shunts up to 20,000 A, augmenting the upper-range of WAGO’s energy measurement technology portfolio.
UCS series universal electronics housings from Phoenix Contact are now also available with ready-made cutouts for the 7 inch touch displays of Raspberry Pi boards, as well as all the standard connections for the mini computers. The polycarbonate housings provide a functional package for the B2 and B3 Raspberry Pi models.
