A first to market solution, the surface-mount K12S 12N keyswitch offers more than 1-million actuation cycles.
Ethernet expandable I/O modules from Acromag now offer field-selectable EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP/IP networking protocol.
AutomationDirect has added new Captron Caneo Series10 and Series41 pushbuttons to expand their offering of capacitive pushbutton switches. Capacitive pushbuttons utilize touch control and are activated without pressure when a hand or body part nears the device’s surface. Series10 switches, suitable for a wide range applications, feature 360° visibility and are available in standard, stainless steel, and hygienic EHEDG-certified models.
Teledyne Relays launches four new reed relay product families, all offering extremely long life of up to 1-billion cycles, ideal for applications where high reliability is essential.
C&K has recently extended its KSC product series with a hard actuator and up to three million actuation cycles. With its hard actuator, KSC11 offers a high tactile ratio without sacrificing its lifetime. With competitors switches lasting 1,000,000 cycles in the best case, the KSC11 has tripled the lifespan. Offering the most cycles for a tactile switch with a hard actuator ensures your product will continue to perform for as long as needed.
CUI Devices’ Switches Group recently announced the addition of IP67 rated models to its line of tactile switches. Ideal for applications subject to moisture and environmental contaminants, the TS03, TS05, TS08, and TS19 series feature compact footprints as small as 3 x 2 x 0.6 mm as well as lifecycle ratings up to 300,000 cycles.
With the new practical DHS-150 door handle system, the slimline AZM150 solenoid interlock from Schmersal is now even easier to use. The ergonomic DHS-150 avoids the need for a separate door handle and is suitable for machine enclosures or fencing and for all standard aluminium profiles with a width of 40 mm. The robust door bolt is particularly useful on heavy swing doors and in for use in harsh environments.
Antimicrobial coatings inhibit the growth of microorganisms and even kill them. Perfectly suited for medical technology, sanitation areas, and the food service industry.
Available in through hole or surface mount versions, the PTS125 Series tactile switch fro C&K offers multiple customization options.
The transistor outputs of conventional sensors are designed for small load currents. If the user wants to switch higher currents or even alternating currents, he must use a switching amplifier. It uses the sensor signal to control an output relay. ifm offers switching amplifiers in one and two-channel design. They have an integrated wide-range power supply (110…240 V AC) to supply the connected sensors with voltage (24 V DC).
Award-winning OKW CONTROL-KNOBS are designed for menu-driven electronics.
EAO has extended the robust Series 82 vandal-resistant pushbutton switch to include an overmoulded option and M12 connector.
Bourns introduces a 12mm dual concentric rotary encoder series that features two encoders in a single package.
Allied Electronics & Automation supplies Siemens’ SIRIUS 3SK safety relays, which deliver flexible, consistent, cost-effective and user-friendly solutions for a comprehensive range of autonomous safety applications, as well as simplify the planning, commissioning and expansion of today’s modern industrial plants. Siemens’ SIRIUS 3SK safety relays have a compact, modular design with replaceable terminals for enhanced plant availability, yellow terminal covers that clearly identify the devices as safety components and sensor cables up to 2,000m long.
Ideal for use as a button to alert of an emergency, call police and lockdown a building, STI’s latching resettable Global ReSet series continues to help evolve their extensive range of access control switches.
