Why the NY Series Industrial PC (IPC) is the Perfect Host for Omron AVEVA Edge

Omron’s partnership with AVEVA Edge makes machine visualization easier than ever. Although this solution is designed to work well across all industries regardless of platform, some platforms work even better – such as the Omron NY Series Industrial PC, or NY IPC for short. Omron AVEVA Edge is a powerful, affordable, and easy-to-use supervisory data control and acquisition (SCADA) software with a custom tag/variable-based driver set for Omron controllers and devices.

ABB: Vital Safety Controller

When several safety devices should control the same output, it is quite common to connect them in series. But to reach PL e, serial connection is not possible and each device should have its own safety relay. Vital offers the capability to exclusively control smaller machine safety systems that would otherwise have required a programmable controller or multiple safety relays. With the Vital safety controller, up to 30 safety devices can be connected in series to one Vital and still reach PL e.

Metso Outotec: PSI Legacy Upgrade

Particle size monitoring and control increases average throughput and reduce particle size variability in grinding products. This improves the downstream process by minimizing reagent consumption, maximizing recoveries and improving dewatering efficiency. The PSI legacy upgrade includes all the necessary components required to upgrade the existing analyzer to the latest technology.

Schlegel: Modular Operating Concept for Bus Systems

The great advantage of the modular operating concept is the connection of several expansion modules via a basic module and the associated saving of costs. Only the basic module includes the bus-specific bus connection and the bus node which communicates with the corresponding bus system. Thus, the basic module is the most complex module of the total package.

Emerson: Nelson Microprocessor-based Digital Controllers

Emerson is offering a low-cost upgrade for electrical heat tracing systems with its Nelson AXPC100-CM-GP and CM-GP microprocessor-based digital controllers that are engineered to accurately control, monitor and maintain the process temperatures of industrial pipes or tanks in ordinary (non-hazardous) locations. Ideal for replacing aging electro-mechanical thermostats, the controllers achieve cost savings by eliminating the need for several components.
