Farnell element14 signs European pact with IDEC
Farnell element14 has added IDEC, a supplier of industrial automation and control products to its European portfolio. The launch brings more than 900 IDEC products to Farnell element14 customers in Europe, including new 16mm and 22mm industrial switches, emergency stop safety products, safety enabling switches, stack lights, panel instrumentation, relays, power supplies and laser scanners.
Active-clamp MOSFET series suitable for relay drivers
Toshiba Electronics Europe has announced the launch of a MOSFET series that incorporates an active-clamp structure with a built-in diode between the drain and gate terminals. With the requirement for a minimum of external components the single SSM3K357R and the dual SSM6N357R are suited to drive inductive loads, such as mechanical relays or solenoids.The 357 series protects drivers against possible damage from voltage surges, as caused by back EM...
Smarter operations with the GuardLink safety system
Rockwell Automation has introduced the Allen-Bradley Guardmaster GuardLink safety system, a safety-based communications protocol that helps operators reduce and improve machine diagnostics and downtime while increasing productivity.Traditionally, safety devices are wired to separate safety inputs, which requires more wiring and introduces more potential fault points.
Solid state relay features 45mm DIN rail model
Sensata Technologies has announced it has added the Crydom DR45 Series Solid State Relay (SSR) to its NOVA22 family for use in industrial machinery, HVAC&R and railway vehicles. This new DIN rail mount SSR offers high power density up to 60A at 40°C in a compact, 45mm package and is the only solid state relay capable of accepting output wires up to 3 AWG with an IP20 protection rating.
Photorelay is suitable for factory automation
Toshiba Electronics Europe has released the TLP3122A photorelay for factory automation and other industrial applications including building automation, security and semiconductor testing.The photorelay integrates MOSFET devices fabricated using the latest U-MOS IX process to reduce on-state resistance. Housed in the small 4-pin SO6 package, the TLP3122A provides an off-state output terminal voltage (VOFF) of 60V, a constant on-state current (ION)...
Safety relays provide 'New Tricks' from an old friend
When it comes down to choosing the right safety relay, it is important in identifying the smallest performance improvements as it can result in big productivity gains.That’s why SICK has developed its ReLy safety relays to achieve a 10ms response time with a class-leading, long and durable product lifecycle.
Rugged relay designed for harsh inductive loads
TE Connectivity (TE) is pleased to announce the release of its new CII FC-335 series relay. Designed to manage harsh inductive, motor and lamp loads, this high-performance relay offers a rugged means of power switching in a range of aerospace, defence and marine applications. TE’s new relays are built to handle higher capacity loads than most comparable mid-range relays on the market, offering a 35A/28VDC resistive load rating.
Switches simulate fault conditions in automotive test applications
PXI Fault Insertion Switches (model 40-202) that are available with 22 or 11 fault insertion channels have been announced by Pickering Interfaces. They were primarily designed to simulate fault conditions in automotive and avionics test applications involving the reliability testing of safety-critical controllers.
High-side switches drive current loads of 20 to 40A DC
Now available from Rutronik UK, Infineon's Power PROFET protected high-side switches support the trend towards decentralised, intelligent and cost effective vehicle power distribution architectures. Power PROFET is a benchmark family of ultra-low ohmic protected high-side switches (1.0mΩ to 2.5mΩ) with integrated protection functions and diagnostics for automotive and 12V industrial markets.
The power of adaptive programming
Taking a look and focussing on adaptive programming with UK Drives Product Manager at ABB Limited, Andy Preston, as he share his insights in a little known feature of a variable speed drive but one that offers a ‘get out of jail free card’ when installations don’t quite go to plan.
