Schmersal Two-Hand Control Panels from AutomationDirect

April 14, 2021

AutomationDirect has added Schmersal two-hand control panels to its lineup of safety products.

Two-hand control systems are used with a special control monitoring relay and require an operator to use both hands simultaneously when initiating a hazardous operation. This forces an operator to keep their hands on the two-hand control actuator and out of an unsafe spot when a system is performing a hazardous operation.

Panels are available in aluminum or plastic and with or without pushbuttons. Replacement pushbuttons and a legend plate are also available.

These new Schmersal two-hand control panels start at $147.00 and have a 1-year warranty.

Large Enclosure Purge and Pressurization

Customers that want to use large enclosures using purging either didn’t have the option or had an extended wait period for purging. Customers were forced to segment the enclosure into smaller enclosures increasing the size of the system and having to interconnect the enclosure together using Ex methods. This customer needs a system that is not only certified for large enclosures, but can also purge the enclosure faster and keep enclosure pressure low.

Polycase: New Sizes for EK Series

Polycase has recently expanded the EK Series of DIN rail mount boxes to include 2 new sizes: the EK-52 and EK-54. The Polycase EK series offers a versatile clip that snaps onto a standard DIN-35 rail, allowing you to easily mount internal components. Both new sizes are larger compared to the current EK-50 and provide an alternative PCB mounting option that allows the user to capture their PCB on the screw tower rib (versus the molded-in mounting bosses) – helping save assembly time by not having to screw down the PCB.

LUTZE: Current Control Allows Selective Safeguarding

LUTZE: Current Control Allows Selective Safeguarding

The new LCOS CC/CCI current controls allow selective safeguarding of individual DC 24 V circuits that each have different shutdown behaviors. In case of an overload or a short in DC 24 V circuits, the LÜTZE current control LCOS CC/CCI only shuts down the faulty current path without impacting on the supply. To meet the various industrial requirements relating to shutdown behavior, the LCOS modules allow five different characteristics to be set via a switch: fast, medium, slow 1, slow 2 and slow 3.
