Decentralised drive motor
01 October, 2008The Movimot ‘D’ extends the operating power of the Movimot range of inverter/geared motor combinations to 4 kW. The MEPS-compliant DR motor is backwards-compatible with previous Movimot versions, providing a flexible decentralised drive solution.
Liquid cooled drive
01 September, 2008The Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 700L liquid-cooled drive delivers energy-efficient liquid cooling, allowing it to be installed in conditions where air-cooled drives can’t operate, such as dusty environments, or where increases in climate control costs would be excessive. Typical applications include HVAC and chillers, pumping applications and oil and gas industries.
Ethernet extension over copper
01 September, 2008The Westermo DDW-220 is designed to extend ethernet networks over existing copper cables in point-to-point or line sharing applications. Point-to-point transmission distances of up to 10 km can be achieved with data rates of 5.7 Mbps possible over shorter distances on a single copper pair.
LCD touch panels
01 September, 2008The Kortek touch-enabled LCDs are designed to meet the demands of 24/7/365 operations in a range of environments.
ELC programmable logic controller
01 September, 2008The ELC programmable logic controller is designed to suit control applications of 40 I/Os and less, although it can also be expanded up to 256 I/Os. That way, there is no need to change to a different controller as I/Os need to be expanded.
SCADA system enhancement
01 September, 2008The functionality of the Simatic WinCC SCADA system has been expanded with the release of version 7.0, so that it now offers operation in accordance with Windows Vista, easy language switching, analysis functions and an integrated MS SQL Server archive historian database as standard.
