Omron: H5CC Digital Timer – Revolutionizing Time Control with Effortless Programming and Predictive Maintenance Algorithms

August 23, 2023

August 22, 2023

Omron Automation Americas has recently released the H5CC, a new digital timer that combines the functions of a variety of timers into one.

This new timer features a user-friendly LED screen, offering instant insights into production processes across diverse sectors such as food processing, packaging, assembly lines, and material handling.

Downtime increases the cost of production through WIP loss, excess labor costs, and maintenance. The H5CC timer comes with predictive maintenance functionality that benefits manufacturers by notifying them of impending equipment failure, enabling scheduled maintenance at their convenience and eliminating the risk of costly unscheduled downtime. By mitigating equipment failure-related disruptions, factories can significantly boost their operational efficiency and save costs while maintaining optimal uptime.

This new timer addresses common user challenges by incorporating integrated LED indicators within front buttons, enhancing visibility of critical information from a distance. Simplified programming offers an optimized interface requiring half the usual inputs for setup, coupled with user-friendly buttons, enabling swift real-time adjustments and an enhanced user experience.

The H5CC timer’s environmental resistance nullifies concerns of damage due to dust or liquid contamination, offering operators uninterrupted functionality and peace of mind.

Carlo Gavazzi: Self-Learning RSGT Series 3-Phase Soft Starters for Motors up to 75Hp / 55kW

Carlo Gavazzi is excited to introduce the new RSGT Series Soft Starters, an easy-to-use product range for AC 3-phase induction motors up to 75Hp / 55kW. To maximize the ease of use without compromising performance, only three settings are required (FLC, ramp-up, ramp-down). The self-learning algorithm adjusts the soft starter’s parameters to work with different applications and varying load conditions. The integration of a Class 10 electronic overload provides advanced motor protection and results in further space savings in the electrical panel. Phase sequence protection, overload function, and dry run function can easily be enabled or disabled through the front located TEST/RESET push button.
