Safety-related systems, such as signaling systems in the railway industry, require reliable lightning and surge protection. The product requirements are increasingly changing with the advent of digitalization. Deutsche Bahn directive 819.0808 also lays the foundation for the infrastructure of the future.
Cinch Connectivity Solutions, a Bel group company, recently announced the latest release of BNC RG-174 cable assemblies to the Johnson cable assembly portfolio. This expansion includes the addition of BNC to BNC, BNC to SMA and BNC to SMB interfaces available in multiple lengths up to 10 feet in English and 2 meters in Metric.
Weidmuller has recently introduced a new terminal block offering to provide an alternate solution managing control voltage distribution for Machinery/Controls equipment within the Process and Power Generation Industries. The AAP 11&12 double output control voltage terminal series is designed to reduce cabinet space, when compared to traditional terminal setups by 30-40% and is ideally suited for applications where there is limited panel space.
Gain maximum flexibility in your application with the new self-configuring 16 I/O digital module by Bihl+Wiedemann (BWU4230). The 16 digital signals of the ASi-5 slave can be distributed as required – e.g. to 12 proximity sensors and 4 valves in an application with packaging technology. The IP67 module is ideally suited for high I/O densities.
Design and controls engineers can now more easily access, configure and manage HART devices using the new Allen-Bradley FLEX 5000 highly integrated HART I/O modules. The simplified programming experience, available with the Studio 5000 Logix Designer application, can help simplify design, maintenance and operational productivity.
The new Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) connector system from Phoenix Contact can lower applied costs and help future-proof networks. As engineers design smarter machines, buildings, and factories, SPE will be a key technology in an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) ecosystem. The first available products include IP20 and IP67 PCB-mount device and panel feed-through connectors, along with patch cables. The IP67 products are designed to the popular M8 connector style.
Cinch Connectivity Solutions, a Bel group company, and global deliverer of reliable connectivity solutions, recently announced Semflex DKF Series Metric Test Cable Assemblies available immediately through Bel’s distributors Digi-key and Mouser. The Semflex DKF series of cable assemblies feature customized precision connectors with low loss, high-performance HP190S cable.
Parking garages, cold storage rooms, gardens – all these facilities have one thing in common: They are exposed to extreme stresses from the outside world and must therefore meet special requirements for electrification. Whether in the area of planning, design or implementation – the decisive factor is above all a safe, fast and simple implementation of electrical installation concepts. This applies in particular to requests for changes, expansion projects and temporary structures.
Building a flexible, scalable and reliable network capable of accomodating the growing scale and diversity of industrial networks can be challenging. It is also imperative to have versatile solutions that are easy to maintain to ensure smooth operations while keeping costs down. Moxa’s MDS-G4000 DIN-rail modular switches provide the reliability and durability you need.
For over 16 years, Panduit and Prysmian Group have partnered to provide the structured cabling market with innovative products and solutions, together stimulating the industry in Category 6A innovation. The companies were proud to recently announce the joint development of the world’s smallest, full channel compliant Category 6A cable.
Various PCB connectors with crimp connection are now available from Phoenix Contact as a convenient assembled connection solution. With freely selectable cable lengths from 10 to 300 centimeters and cross sections from AWG 22 to AWG 14, you can create individual cable assemblies for various pitches.
WAGO’s Mini Terminal Blocks offer several mounting options for exceptional flexibility. They can be mounted directly on a 15 x 5.5 mm DIN-rail or on a mounting plate with a flange or snap-in mounting foot. They are available with two actuation types: Terminal blocks with push-buttons or operating slots–either type allows direct termination via Push-in CAGE CLAMP connections.
M23 Hybrid series device connectors from Phoenix Contact are now also available with a knurled nut. This enables devices such as servo drives to be connected using either coupler or cable connectors. Inputs and outputs can therefore be clearly distinguished – both visually and mechanically. This increases cabling safety, especially in daisy chain applications.
With the new RJ Industrial MultiFeature series, HARTING can better meet the wishes and requirements of its customers for even easier installation in the field. The further development of the successful RJ Industrial MF series is characterised by tool-free assembly, easier assembly and a robust metal housing.
The SDS-3008 smart Ethernet switch is the ideal product for IA engineers and automation machine builders to make their networks compatible with the vision of Industry 4.0.
Stewart Connector, a Bel group company and world-class manufacturer of high-speed connectors used in data communication applications announces the addition of M12 X-Code Cable Assemblies, supporting Ethernet connectivity up to 10 Gbps, making them ideal for both factory and industrial environments.
