High-Performance Networks – Wago Industrial Managed Switches for Energy Suppliers

WAGO adds two new switches that are tailored to substation automation to its growing product range. The 852-1505/000-001 Switches are designed for “Power over ETHERNET” (PoE), which provides power supply and data transfer together through just one ETHERNET cable. This streamlined wiring configuration offers significant potential savings for installation and operating costs while taking up significantly less space.

What Are The Core Components Of A Control Panel?

What Are The Core Components Of A Control Panel?

UCEC build control panels to most efficiently serve the needs of their customers. That means every control panel they build is different than the last whether they case it in stainless steel to withstand the rigors of a pharmaceutical environment or they custom build a panel with multiple motor controls and relays to perform complex conveying functions. Despite this, there are some elements that make every control panel similar.

ICE1 Modules with S2 Redundancy: IO-Link Master for High-Reliability Systems

When a machine in a chemical or pharmaceutical plant fails or is in need of repair, the resulting downtimes can last several weeks: Batches must be disposed of and the plant itself must be completely cleaned until operations can resume. Especially in such critical applications, system redundancy is essential for preventing unplanned downtimes and the associated costs.
