Timesys Corporation (http://www.timesys.com), provider of the industry's most-easy-to-use and affordable embedded Linux solutions, today announced a strategic alliance with Freescale Semiconductor, a global leader in the design and manufacture of embedded semiconductors for the automotive, consumer, industrial and networking markets. The first offering to result from this partnership is the availability of LinuxLink for Freescale's TWR-MCF5441X a...

Across Europe manufacturing is being automated as a way to both compete against imports from ‘low cost’ economies and to ensure consistent output quality. However ‘greenfield’ projects are rare and the vast majority of automation projects are retrofits, upgrades and extensions. Here, John Browett of the CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA), looks at how the upgrade of systems using open networks can provide major cost benefits, while also i...

The CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA) has just released a new “Gateway to China” (G2C) programme video; based on the recent webinar of the same subject, it should be of great interest to any company selling into China or planning to approach the market.

Assembling even one reversing starter from conventional components is time consuming and tedious, so having to assemble 150 of them is a far from pleasant prospect. That's why German panel builder Hell GmbH chose Moeller Electric xStart products, which use tool-less plug connectors, for the starters in the control panels it recently supplied to Energie Wasser Niederrhein, a major utility company.

On a recent project, Moeller Electric SmartWire, the panel wiring system that puts fieldbus-like connectivity inside the control panel, has made it possible for refrigeration expert Greencold of Kettering to use just one control panel instead of the three originally planned, to eliminate the need for a costly PLC, and to dramatically reduce panel wiring time.

To ensure the highest possible level of availability for its water treatment systems, Glastechnik Holger Kramp designs its control panels with built-in redundancy. Thanks to Moeller Electric’s SmartWire system, however, the panels still offer an outstanding price/performance ratio.

Designed specifically to be easy and convenient to use in automation applications, Moeller Electric’s new easy500-POW and easy600-POW switchmode power supplies combine wide voltage range inputs (85 V to 264 V AC) with comprehensive output protection, a Class B interference rating and compact construction.

The first product of its type, the new Contactor Monitoring Device from Moeller Electric means the expense of using duplicate redundant contactors in motor starters with safety functions can be entirely eliminated. Instead, the same levels of safety can be achieved by using a compact and inexpensive CMD module with each contactor, providing not only large cost savings, but also reducing the amount of space required in the control panel.

There has been a lot of discussion recently in the press and on-line about RCBOs and, in particular, about the separate earth connection that is used by some of these devices. Unfortunately, a lot of the information that has appeared has been misleading and, in some cases, it is simply wrong. Given that the recent introduction of the 17th Edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations is resulting in a big increase in the usage of RCBOs, it is important t...

Thanks to an integrated microprocessor and the unique Smart SenseTM technology, each iProx sensor has a large detection range and intelligence that can be adapted to each application. Cylindrical devices with switching distances of up to 29 millimeters are available, twice the switching distance of other inductive sensors of the same size.
