Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, is now stocking the Sentrius BT510 sensor from Laird Connectivity. The compact, battery-powered, multi-sensor platform provides reliable Bluetooth® 5 long-range connectivity, making it an ideal solution for Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
Phoenix Contact’s UNO POWER family now includes a cost-effective option for applications requiring a basic DC voltage. The newest single-phase power supply is ideal for loads of up to 480 W. Like other power supplies in the UNO POWER range, the new 24 V DC/20 A addition has high-quality components, ensuring a long lifetime rating and high meantime between failure (MTBF).
With its EB 2.0 L series, production safety specialist Pfannenberg has developed six chillers with high-quality equipment that are tailored to the advanced cooling requirements of compact industrial applications. As of now, the new series replaces and extends the devices of the previous EB Large series. Apart from a higher cooling performance, the new devices are provided with various additional features such as hydraulic safety equipment, filter monitoring and remote-controlled ON/OFF switch.
IDEC interface relays provide a compact solution for general purpose relay requirements. The RV8 series interface relays are ideal for PLC and other controller output, industrial automation, panel builders, assembly machine applications and other applications that require a high switching capability in a compact space. The RV8 relays can be used as a universal interfaces between the controller and the actuator to switch small and medium size loads.
At the Hannover Messe (Hall 9 / Booth D26), B&R will be the first to present an automation portfolio that speaks OPC UA over TSN. And with that, the vision of interface free communication from the sensor to the cloud is now a reality. The open standard means OEMs are no longer locked in to a specific vendor and enjoy greater freedom in the design of their machines. Another exhibition highlight will be B&R’s full integration of robotics in the machine control system.
Murata Power Solutions introduced a new panel meter series developed for industrial applications. The DMR30 Series can measure DC voltage, DC current, temperature, various process voltages, or current loops commonly used in industrial processes.
Ready for compact installations, a new model completes WAGO’s series of current transformers with voltage taps. In addition to the 50 mm2 (1/0 AWG) and 95 mm2 (4/0 AWG) versions, a current transformer with voltage tap for WAGO’s 185 mm2 (350 kcmil) through terminal block is now also available, making it perfect for measuring energy in small spaces.
At this year’s Light+Building trade show, Siemens Smart Infrastructure will show the first energy management solution that holistically captures energy data in buildings. It collects data all the way to the final circuit without any additional wiring or space requirements. All electrical data – from the power feed-in to the socket outlet – can then be seamlessly integrated into building management systems and analyzed by cloud-based applications.
By completing the power measurement chain from the sensor to the cloud, PC-based control specialist Beckhoff enables a significant simplification of energy management approaches and improves the availability of machines and production facilities. Permanently integrated and seamless power measurement across entire installations allows users to perform extensive inline analyses to detect any deviation and take quick corrective action.
The industrial box thin clients (BTC) from Pepperl+Fuchs are the perfect solution for industrial environments where traditional thin clients meet their limits. They give users access to applications and information that run on centralized systems. With their extremely rugged design, they are made for the special requirements of the process industry. Available from now on, the new BTC14 complements the portfolio of industrial box thin clients from Pepperl+Fuchs.
Quick-disconnect cables have a 3, 4 or 5-socket M8 female connector on one end and 3, 4 or 5 open leads on the other end to provide fast and easy connection between field devices and terminal connections. A “lock in place” nickel plated brass or zinc coupling nut resists high levels of shock and vibration.
At this year’s Light+Building, Siemens Smart Infrastructure is introducing LData, a busbar trunking system specially designed for data centers wanting to improve their efficiency, availability and adaptability. The more internet traffic, mobile users as well as Internet of Things connections increase, the more data has to be processed. That is why high-performance data centers are emerging as the backbone of a digital society. These data centers must offer the highest degree of availability to protect critical data as well as business-critical applications and industrial processes.
