TE Connectivity: LVDT Position Sensors

TE Connectivity: LVDT Position Sensors

As electronification and digitization continue to grow within Industry 4.0, reliable position sensors are critical in meeting the harsh demands of industrial hydraulic applications. LVDT position sensors from TE Connectivity (TE), a world leader in connectivity and sensors, offer standard and custom solutions based on hydraulic application requirements of ICT off-highway equipment and industrial machine tools.

 

 

 

Cat5e Industrial Ethernet Cable from AutomationDirect

Cat5e Industrial Ethernet Cable from AutomationDirect

Quabbin DataMax Extreme Industrial Ethernet cable jackets were developed to survive the many industrial hazards that commercial jackets will not. Quabbin Cat5e Industrial Ethernet cable has a UL PLTC rating allowing it to be installed in a cable tray without the need for conduit. With its 22 AWG conductors it works well in power over Ethernet (POE) applications.

B&R Automation: Frequency Inverters for Broad Range of Applications

B&R Automation: Frequency Inverters for Broad Range of Applications

The ACOPOSinverter P86 is a series of frequency inverters for three-phase synchronous and induction motors, with or without encoders. It covers a wide power spectrum from 0.75 to 75 kW and is particularly well-suited for packaging, conveyor system, material processing and hoisting gear applications. B&R’s P86-series inverters already comply with the IE efficiency factors standardized in EN 61800-9-2.

 

 

 

Durability And Ruggedness Of Expanded Beam Optics Using Springless Mating And Crimpless Cable Retention

Durability And Ruggedness Of Expanded Beam Optics Using Springless Mating And Crimpless Cable Retention

TE Connectivity (TE) is releasing its EB16 expanded beam optical pin and socket termini in new single mode and multimode variations. Both variations are based on an updated design that includes springless mating and crimpless cable retention. EB16 termini are built on TE’s PRO BEAM expanded beam connector technology, which expands and collimates the optical signal into a beam size well beyond its original size to help provide easier optical alignment, low sensitivity to contamination and consistent performance over thermal changes.

AutomationDirect Adds VNTC Tray Cable

VNTC (Vinyl Nylon Tray Cable) 600 Volt Type TC-ER control cables from AutomationDirect are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, direct burial and where superior electrical properties are desired. VNTC cable is available in 18 AWG to 10 AWG with 3 to 24 unshielded copper conductors. Cables are cut to length in 1-foot increments with a 20-foot minimum.

 

 

 

Phoenix Contact: Four-Wire Surge Protective Device

Phoenix Contact: Four-Wire Surge Protective Device

Phoenix Contact has added four-wire surge protective devices (SPDs) to the TERMITRAB Complete family. The new TTC-6P-4 pluggable SPDs protect against overvoltages on four conductors in a width of only 6 mm. That is only 1.5 mm per conductor. The new additions are designed for measurement and control applications, such as very precise temperature and weight measurements, that are sensitive to impedance.
