Balluff’s leading line of fork sensors now includes IP69K-rated stainless steel, self-contained, through-beam sensors designed for the most challenging environments. These robust sensors incorporate a 316L stainless steel housing that can withstand aggressive cleaning solutions, coolants, and lubricants. The protection provided by the housing makes these sensors the ideal choice for food and beverage, packaging, metalworking, and pharmaceutical industries.
Endress+Hauser’s extremely compact Picomag, already the gold standard in maintenance-free flow measurement, is now available with important enhancements such as temperature compensated conductivity measurement and an increase in measuring accuracy from ±2% to ±0.8%. The pocket-sized Picomag is a no-compromise solution that provides simple, reliable and maintenance-free measurement, whether the job is quantity measurement or process monitoring of cooling, warm or process water.
TE Connectivity (TE), a world leader in connectivity and sensors, is extending its time-tested 369 connector series with the introduction of the new 369 shielded rectangular connectors for environments that demand ambient EMI noise protection. These connectors incorporate the benefits of the 369 series, which is qualified for use in a wide range of commercial aerospace applications, with EMI shielding that opens up new application possibilities.
Festo’s latest vision sensor, the economical SBSI, provides quick and easy installation and commissioning, even for someone lacking expert knowledge in industrial vision systems. Whether the vision sensor is destined to read codes or carry out simple quality inspections, the all-in-one SBSI series can be commissioned in just three steps: adjust the image with auto functions, select detectors and define the output. Everything needed for optics, lighting, evaluation and communication is fully integrated in the device.
Balluff’s inductive couplers connect up to eight discrete sensors across a small air gap, eliminating hardware failures that can occur when slip rings, connectors, or other electromechanical connections wear out.
The new AEP series of reinforced thermoplastic compact limit switches includes a variety of actuator types including metal plunger, side rotary lever, adjustable lever, rod actuator, and 360-degree spring actuator.
Festo has created the Simplified Motion Series of electric drives for jobs requiring very simple motion or positioning, with the added bonus of being exceedingly easy to commission. These all-in-one units are alternatives for users looking for pneumatics-like simplicity – with all the necessary components and modules, including the motor and controller incorporated into the one unit, with no external controller, control cabling, or control cabinet.
ProSense VFS series vortex flow sensors offer a very cost-effective solution optimized for monitoring water and deionized water flow in industrial applications. Vortex flow sensors are a reliable alternative to other flow sensing technologies and are a simple, low cost, and proven method for measuring flow of water-based liquids that is independent of the liquid’s pressure or temperature fluctuations.
The new QUINT DC/DC converters have a dynamic power reserve. For starting heavy loads, the dynamic boost offers you twice the output power for 5 s. The SFB Technology (Selective Fuse Breaking Technology) delivers 6x the nominal current for 15 ms, which is enough power to reliably and economically protect your DC circuits. Standard miniature circuit breakers are selectively tripped while consumers connected in parallel continue working. The static boost with up to 125% continuous power makes it easy to expand the system.
You can create exceptionally high-quality and robust markings printed with a laser. The new LS-EML-D product family from Phoenix Contact is comprised of white and silver markers made of dual-layer plastic specifically designed for this process.
Omron Automation Americas launched its new E3AS Series Reflective-Type Photoelectric Sensors that combine accurate detection for diverse targets, exceptional sensing distance, environmental robustness, and compact size. These sensors are designed to help manufacturers manage varied and flexible production needs more effectively.
Eaton XT series self-powered electronic overload relays are self-contained units available at up to 175A. Eaton XT electronic overload relays are the most compact, high-featured, economical products in class, offering additional trip classes, universal connections to any contactor, and a wide amperage range. Accessory 24VDC and 120 VAC remote reset modules provide remote overload reset capability.
Littelfuse, Inc., a global manufacturer of leading technologies in circuit protection, power control, and sensing, announced today the expansion of its award-winning line of POWR-SPEED® PSR series high-speed fuses by adding 275 new bolted and DIN mounting options in various sizes and amperages to meet global market needs.
Pfannenberg, Inc., a leading global manufacturer of thermal management and signaling technologies, announces the PMF LED-Hi LED multifunction light, ideal for both indoor and outdoor use in industrial environments, including automotive, plant construction and logistics, open-cast mining, heavy industry, and maritime applications.
As part of the SICK AppSpace eco-system, the programmable SIM10xx Sensor Integration Machines offer multiple sensor data acquisition and fusion processes, thereby providing space for new application solutions. The acquired data is processed and visualized for important information, for example quality control or process analysis. In addition, the IoT gateway functions enable connection from the edge to the cloud via the Internet in the context of Industry 4.0.
SU, UK, UT and TU series round body and UQ series cubic plastic ultrasonic distance sensors from AutomationDirect are now available in sensing distance ranges from 60mm to 8000mm, in metal or plastic housings, and M18 (18mm) and M30 (30mm) barrel or head sizes. Discrete and analog output sensors and models with both analog and discrete switching outputs are available.
