With the base unit PNOZ m B1 Burner from the safe small controller PNOZmulti 2, you can manage safe monitoring and safe control of furnaces simultaneously with one solution. That’s because PNOZmulti 2 controls and monitors both the burner itself and the entire furnace. You can configure a wide range of burner applications using the burner element (function block), which reproduces the expanded functionality of a flexible, configurable, electronic automatic burner control system.
Sensors for presence control in intralogistics, packaging processes or the automotive industry often have to fulfill several requirements: they need to detect objects reliably, they must be easy to install and, above all, must be cost-effective. This is why Leuze has developed the new 5B sensor series. They convince with their flexible handling and offer high level of cost effectiveness. These are often decisive arguments in cases where a system requires a large number of sensors.
DISPLAY VISIONS EA HMI 4.3″ Modbus RTU/TCP Touch Panel Displays expand a classic control unit in a control cabinet with a color display and inclusive touch. Thanks to edge computing, even complex and visually appealing screen layouts can be easily implemented. Program control tasks via USB, LAN, or RS485 and connect the desired HMI displays via RS-485 or Wi-Fi. The HMI modules understand various protocols, like Modbus.
Industrial applications require a high degree of flexibility and an equally low susceptibility to errors. Whether in machine and plant engineering, conveyor technology or the packaging industry—the universally applicable VOS 2-D vision sensors provide fast and reliable measurement data for precise quality control.
