Fingerprint-Recognition Switch Designed for Factories and Plants

Content Type  While cyber security gets lots of attention in the industrial trade press these days, physical security is important as well.

Web-based HMI, SCADA, MES

Content Type  Development in the technology world has moved overwhelmingly into Web-based applications. This technology movement has started to gravitate into the manufacturing software sector. 

New Signal Conditioner Added to JUMPFLEX Line

Content Type  Engineered for Industrial sensors, the 857-819 mV Signal Conditioner accepts bipoloar MV inputs from -10 mV to +1000 mV and converts to a current or voltage output. 

New Serial Bus System

Content Type The Ross D Series Serial Bus system provides an extended range of I/O points, offering up to 352 digital outputs, 256 digital inputs, and 16 analog inputs and outputs. 

Submersible Pressure Transmitters

Content Type  To deliver accurate level detection, a transmitter is placed at the bottom of the tank holding the liquid then converts the pressure reading to an analog 4-20 mA output signal. A breathing tube is used as a reference port to determine the atmospheric pressure outside of the tank.

KVM Switch Needs No Converter

Content Type  Get more control of your desktop computers. New switch enables users to control two DisplayPort-capable computers using a single keyboard, mouse and monitor while capitalizing on the graphical and audio capability of the DisplayPort interface.

PLC Functionality in PC

Content Type  Continuing an evolution of PLC (programmable logic controller) functions into open PC-based systems, this controller adds PC and PCI-104 modules for open interfaces.

Fieldbus Foundation Approved Device Couplers

Content Type  Speed network installation. Device couplers deliver a fast and easy way to connect multiple fieldbus devices to a main fieldbus trunk in Foundation Fieldbus H1 and Profibus PA networks.

Simplfy Flow Measurement

Content Type  MultiVariable transmitter measures three variables and provides mass and energy flow output, reducing the number of devices traditionally required to make DP flow measurement from ten to one.

Programmable Automation Controller

Content Type  Automation controllers continue to morph from traditional programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to programmable automation controllers (PACs) that contain PC-type functionality with PLC familiarity.

Compact Ethernet Switches Provide Flexibility

Content Type  Designed for space-critical field applications, the EDS-600 Managed Ethernet Switches provide up to three Gigabit Ethernet ports and four expansion slots for fast Ethernet modules.

DIN-rail Mount UPS Modules

Content Type  Protect electronics and data in the cabinet. Uninterruptable power supply (UPS) Controller (and batteries), as well as buffer and redundancy modules added to Advanced Power Supply line.

Intelligence, Energy Management in Small UPS

Content Type  Even small uninterruptable power supplies can have advanced features.

Dual Controller PAC

Content Type PACs or programmable automation controllers, have pretty much replaced programmable logic controllers (PLCs) as the basic automation and control architecture. 

Low-Cost Soft Starters

Content Type For a low-cost alternative for motor control, this series of soft starters is available in 5A to 40A sizes, are overcurrent protected and feature two DIN-rail mountable frame sizes (45mm and 55mm). Prices start at $145.

Industrial Managed PoE Plus Switch

Content Type  With the newest addition to the RocketLinx(TM) family of switches, the ES7506 Industrial Managed PoE Plus Switch delivers up to 30 watts per port (four PoE ports) and supports the new IEEE802.3at standard. 

Compact Plotter

Content Type  Compact plotter bundles universal marking capabilities into a value-priced unit. 

Volumetric Flow Meter for Exact Dosing

Content Type  Compact flow meter designed to deposit small dosing quantities in water and aqueous solutions up to 200 ml/min.

Technology Partnership

Content Type  Technology partnerships are all the rage today. Here is one between a French and an Austrian company.

IEEE 802.11n Security

Content Type  With the latest Wireless LAN  standard finally approved by IEEE--802.11n--specific deployment, management and security tools are required.
