The Stride Field I/O family of modules provides a simple and economical means to connect inputs and outputs to a Modbus TCP communications network. Each module operates as a standalone Modbus TCP server, and can be configured via a built-in web server. Analog input, output and thermocouple modules have fully isolated or isolated-in-pairs channels for noise-sensitive applications.
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.
