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.
Many manufacturers use time-consuming and potentially dangerous manual processes to inspect servo motors for insulation issues. If this sounds like your company, it might be time to switch over to an automated, remote-based servo motor condition monitoring solution that works around the clock.
Using an L32 B connector allows users to replace two size 16 B interfaces — saving over 40% of installation space. This makes it possible to transmit power, signals and data with fewer interfaces and fewer components. It also cuts the time required to assemble interfaces.
The metal housings in the Han EMV and Han HPR series are now also available in versions that enable contact inserts to be mounted from the rear — an option that simplifies the placement of interfaces on switch cabinet walls and increases the installation speed and thus lowers costs in the long term.
Energy efficiency is a topic that HARTING is concerned with and for which the technology group offers specific solutions: With its Han S, HARTING has developed a series of connectors that enable customers to build energy storage systems on the basis of battery modules.
Narrow, single-channel PTCB circuit breakers are now available with approval for Hazardous Locations Class I, Div. 2 Groups A, B, C, D, Temperature Class T4. That means PTCBs can also be used in Ex areas (Division 2) with briefly occurring gases and vapors.
The EJ1254 digital input module acquires the fast binary 24 V control signals from the process level and transmits them, in an electrically isolated form, to the controller. The EtherCAT plug-in module has four channels that indicate their signal state via light emitting diodes.
B&R’s real-time operating system, Automation Runtime, now automatically logs data about storage media’s health to provide machine operators and service personnel early warnings of impending failure.
With the new TRIO POWER power supply with the IP67 degree of protection specially developed for applications in the field, you can ensure high system availability even in extreme ambient conditions.
Omron Automation Americas has recently announced that it will begin selling a new industrial robot series, the i4L. The i4L is a compact SCARA robot with strong performance, a flexible design for simple installation, and easy-to-use features that maximize productivity.
It’s in your hands to shape the engineering of tomorrow. EPLAN supports you in this – with modern tools for your daily work as well as with integrated solutions for the digitalised future of the industrial ecosystem.
Recently, Emerson announced that it has expanded its SolaHD SVL DIN rail power supplies to include economical, three-phase versions engineered for use in both ordinary and hazardous locations.
Siemens and Allied Electronics & Automation are teaming up to help panel builders better design simpler, more flexible and space-saving industrial control cabinets.
AutomationDirect’s BRX PLC Series has joined the Azure Certified Device program, ensuring customers get IoT solutions up and running quickly with hardware and software that has been pre-tested and verified to work with Azure IoT.
AutomationDirect has added Schmersal IEC limit switches to its lineup. These limit switches are available in a 30mm or 40mm body width and are offered in zinc alloy, aluminum or glass-fiber thermoplastic enclosures.
Any time an electrician or technician makes a voltage measurement on a live conductor, there is a risk of electrical shock.
