Silencers - NAN, NAMC Series

NAN silencers from SMC Pneumatics offer various styles and low backpressure in a compact, easy mounting design.  NAMC exhaust cleaners insure clean plant air and reduce noise pollution over 35dB, while removing over 99.9% of oil mist.

4-Port Solenoid Valve - Series SJ2000/3000

The SJ series was developed by SMC Pneumatics to offer a small, low profile, low maintenance, 4-port solenoid valve and manifold.  The series was designed in a cassette type format, uses a card-edge type connector, and is available in two compact sizes.  The SJ2000 measures 7.5mm wide, while the large SJ3000 model is only 10mm wide.  They can be combined in the same manifold, which can provide up to 24 stations and 32 solenoids.

3-Port Solenoid Valve - Series V100

SMC’s series V100 is one of the most advanced solenoid valves in today’s market.  The standard V100 uses only 0.35W, which is 76% less than comparable valves.  The low power model uses only 0.1W, reflecting dramatic savings of up to 93% compared to existing products.  Weighing in at a mere 12g, with flow rates between 8.4 and 24 l/minute, it’s the perfect solution when space, performance and component weight is critical.

Compact Direct Operated 2/3-Port Solenoid Valve for Water and Air

SMC Pneumatics’ VDW200/300 series is a compact, direct operated, 3-port solenoid valve for water, air and vacuum.  The use of a unique magnetic material reduces the operating resistance of moving parts, improving service life, wear and corrosion resistance.  VDW10/20/30 are the 2-port counterparts to this series.

5-Port Solenoid Valve - Series VQZ

Series VQZ base mount solenoid valves from SMC Pneumatics combine convenience with durability and performance in a more traditional mounting style.  Series VQZ Body Ported Solenoid Valves combine flexibility with high performance and long life in an inline body style.

3-Port Solenoid Valve - Series VQZ

Series VQZ base mount solenoid valves from SMC Pneumatics combine convenience with durability and performance in a more traditional mounting style.  Series VQZ Body Ported Solenoid Valves combine flexibility with high performance and long life in an inline body style.

Modular F.R.L. Unit

The cost-effective and clean-looking AC series by SMC Pneumatics allows you to pick a combination of modular style air preparation equipment that best suits your needs.  The series, available in eight size options to ensure optimum performance, offers energy savings, with higher flow rates.  Simple assembly and maintenance reduces downtime.

Turck DeviceNet Terminating Resistor with Voltage Monitoring

TURCK announces the new M12 eurofast ® terminating resistor with LEDs for voltage monitoring. The DeviceNet terminating resistor stabilizes and minimizes reflections on the bus line by matching impedance. The LED indicators emit red for incorrect polarity and green for correct polarity.

These connectors are rated for 250 Volts and 4 Amps and available in nickel plated brass or stainless steel. All connectors provide NEMA 1, 3, 4, 6P and IEC IP 67 protection.

New Products from Tyco Electronics

Modular Connector Line Now Accepts Optical Termini

The new Raychem MTCT high-performance modular rectangular connectors accept standard ARINC 801 LuxCis™ optical termini in a compact, lightweight design. Since many common applications in aerospace and military applications use four optical fibers, the four-position MTCT connector eliminates the need to plug or seal unused contact cavities as would be required with common 12-termini systems. The result is significant space and weight savings. 

The connectors are available with either aluminum or corrosion-resistant steel shells, quarter-turn bayonet quick disconnect or jackscrew mating hardware, keying, and a fluorosilicone interfacial seal. An enhanced mating interface ensures optical alignment of the termini. Only commonly available tools are required for installation. 

The MTCT connector is based on the popular Raychem MTC product family of compact modular connectors. For high-density application, the MTC family uses a rectangular geometry that saves space compared to circular connectors. The MTCT uses the family's 1-inch shell size.

Hermetically Sealed 50-Amp Relays

The new FCA-150 and FCAC-150 series of relays from Tyco Electronics are designed to perform under the most demanding environmental conditions of temperature, altitude, shock, vibration, and salt spray. Meeting the requirements of Mil-R-6106, the hermetically sealed, non-latching relays offer a 50-A switching capability in a compact package only one cubic inch in size and weighing less than 90 grams. This compact package size offers considerable size and weight savings over other 50-amp devices on the market. 

Rated for temperatures from -70° to +125°C and operation to 300,000 feet in high-vibration and high-shock environments, the FCA-150 and FCAC-150 series are available with optional diode for transient protection. The FCAC-150 series offers auxiliary contacts with single-pole, double-throw operation at 2 A. Excellent isolation is maintained between main and auxiliary contacts. All current paths are welded and free of mechanical fasteners for additional robustness. 

A polarized, single-side stable design results in appreciably increased contact pressure in both states compared to that of a spring-return non-polar design. The relays are configured as single-pole, single-throw devices with normally open contacts. A choice of three coil voltages is available: 6, 12, and 28 VDC.

Phoenix Contact CONTACTRON 4-in-1 Contactor

The new CONTACTRON 4-in-1 solid state reversing contactor from Phoenix Contact combines four functions in one narrow package. Designed for three-phase AC motors up to 4 kW/5 HP in size, the 4-in-1 provides forward, reverse, overload protection and redundant emergency stop contactor functionality in a 22.5 mm-wide module.

The compact size reduces the necessary DIN rail space by up to 75 percent, saving space and wiring costs as compared to a contactor-based solution. The CONTACTRON's life expectancy is up to 10 times longer than traditional electromechanical contactors, which results in reduced maintenance costs.

Integrated input/output surge protection circuits reduce system downtime, and 16 separate motor overload settings reduce inventory requirements. LED and remote indication acknowledge motor status. The CONTACTRON 4-in-1 is rated for safety category 3, SIL 3 and ATEX zone 2.
