October 23, 2017

Eaton’s Power Xpert Branch Circuit Monitor (PXBCM) provides remote access to live energy readings, and facilitates data integration for data center intensive industries, facilities working to optimize server capacity and companies with a critical need to maintain uptime. By combining monitoring capabilities down to the plug level with overload alerts, which indicate when circuits are close to exceeding thresholds, the PXBCM helps minimize or prevent downtime.

Features:

  • Intuitive Web interface provides the ability to access live energy readings remotely and facilitates data integration
  • Downtime is minimized or prevented by overload alerts that indicate when the circuit is close to exceeding its threshold
  • Energy usage can be confidently tracked with ANSI C12.20 (0.5%) system accuracy
  • Optimize cost by only monitoring what is needed from 25 to 100 points per system
  • Provides end users the ability to monitor all the way down to the plug level, meeting or exceeding building codes and regulations

    Phoenix Contact: Versatile in Use – The New Universal Tools

    The Unifox-MP multifunctional pliers with ergonomic two-component handle combine six or seven functions in a single tool. They make it possible to not only grip, bend, and cut wires, but also to strip cables and crimp ferrules. Their angled tip can be used to easily pierce and deburr flush-mounted sockets. While the Unifox MP 6-1 can be used to cut cables without crushing, the Unifox-MP 7-1 has a diagonal cutter. This means that fine, medium-hard, and piano wires can be effortlessly cut to length. In addition, the pliers provide a crimping area for insulated ring cable lugs. The Unifox-Wrench pliers wrench combines the functions of pliers and a wrench. Ideal for gripping, holding, bending, and turning nuts and bolts, it offers continuous adjustment via push button and an integrated scale for quick and easy setting of the wrench size. The smooth gripping jaws, which can be moved in parallel, protect sensitive surfaces against damage. Thanks to the leverage ratio of greater than 10:1, the pliers wrench ensures a high clamping force and therefore a secure hold. The Unifox-LM “Linemans” combination pliers are ideal for gripping, bending, and twisting wires as well as for pin crimping uninsulated cable lugs. The ergonomic two-component handle ensures comfort, while the toothed gripping surfaces and the additional gripping area below the joint provide optimum grip. With the extra-long blades with a cutting hardness of 62-64 HRC, the Unifox LM offers optimum cutting performance and durability.
