Banner Engineering TL50 Audible Indicator

The TL50 Audible indicators were developed to provide the customer with a standalone audible device with a convenient 30mm mounting base. Unlike panel mount audible alarms, these devices can be placed anywhere in the factory without the need for a separate enclosure to house them. The sealed version was designed to withstand harsh and wet environments like the food and beverage, pharmaceutical and medical, and material handling industry.

Features

• Rugged, cost-effective and easy to install
• Compact devices are self-contained – no controller needed
• Immune to EMI and RFI interference
• Choose IP50 or Sealed IP67 model, black or light gray housing
• 18 to 30V dc operation

Crydom EL Series Compact Solid State Relays

Crydom’s new “EL” series of Compact Solid State Relays include models with output ratings up to 20 A rms from 24 to 280 VAC or 10 A from 3 to 100 VDC with optional external heat sink. Logic compatible control input versions include 5, 12 or 24 VDC. Output termination is via 0.25” (6.35 mm) quick connect terminals, while input terminals are 0.187” (4.75 mm) quick connects.

Featuring 4kV all solid state optical isolation, the Triac output AC versions are available with either zero voltage turn-on for resistive load applications or random turn-on for inductive load applications, while DC output versions feature low RDS on resistance FETs suitable for most DC resistive or inductive loads. “EL” series SSRs are RoHS & China RoHS compliant, CE certified, UL and cUL recognized.

Rittal TopTherm Heater

Rittal is pleased to announce the launch of our new TopTherm Heaters. The new heaters cover a continuous heating range from 10 to 150 Watts (without fan) and 250 to 800 Watts (with integrated fan). Features such as flexible mounting options, easy wiring, reduced size and improved heating output make these PTC heaters the perfect product for applications with condensation issues or low ambient temperatures. The new heaters will replace the current heater line by Dec 31, 2010.

Features

• Additional sizes up to 800 Watts of thermal output
• Multiple voltages covered (110 to 240V)
• Constant heat distribution thanks to PTC technology
• Quick and flexible mounting via DIN rail or to mounting panel directly
• Tool-less wiring via terminal block
• High efficiency due to self-regulating heater with PTC technology
• Increased thermal outputs with same physical dimensions

Rittal TopTherm Chiller

Rittal is pleased to announce the launch of the TopTherm Chiller Line with cooling capacities ranging from 9 to 44 kW. Seven standard sizes will complement their well-established Mini Chiller line, which currently covers cooling capacities up to 6kW. The modular design, the small footprint, easy serviceability and the high degree of standardization of Rittal TopTherm Chillers are perfectly suited for applications that require cost efficient and reliable water-cooling.

Additional standard features such as water bypass and dual frequency add to the versatility of the new product line.

Pepperl+Fuchs Photoelectric Sensors for Clear Object Detection

GLV18 Series photoelectric sensors with Clear Object Detection are now available from Pepperl+Fuchs. Clear object detection models use reflectors to detect transparent objects up to 2.5 m away, or opaque objects up to 5 m away. These sensors can detect transparent objects to a contrast as low as 18%, including objects as transparent as glass or a clear film. They carry the CE mark, and are UL/cUL Listed.

“The primary benefit of clear object detection is the ability to consistently detect transparent materials such as a glass bottle, PET plastic, a web of shrink-wrap, or protective bubble wrap,” says Jeff Allison, Product Manager. “Other types of photoelectric sensors would not consistently detect clear objects because the transmitted light would optically burn through the material, but GLV18 series clear object detection sensors are designed to detect such materials.”

These sensors come in an industry-standard M18 threaded cylindrical housing that is up to 50% shorter and with up to 50% lower power consumption than many competitive models. As a result, they are more likely to fit into space-critical equipment or installations and are less costly to operate - and as lower power consumption enables each power supply to power more sensors, fewer power supplies may be needed in a given application.

GLV18 series sensors also include a unique flush-mount bracket that allows for a simple, tool-less, unobtrusive means of mounting the sensor on a conveyor. Ball-and-swivel and half-clamp mounting brackets are also available to facilitate precise positioning of GLV18 series sensors.

Status LEDs are highly visible and placed in dual positions, 180 degrees apart on the housing, for increased visibility. Additionally, status LED functionality is standardized, meaning that GLV18 sensors don’t just indicate they are powered and see a target, but also indicate if the sensor’s signal strength is lower than it should be so that corrective action can be taken.

GLVL18 series sensors are ideally suited for use in material handling applications, primarily for detecting clear shrink-wrap webs or semi-transparent trays or cartons. They are also well suited for use in packaging applications including, among others, presence detection of clear clamshells, bottles, or pouch webstock. Additionally, the GLV18 series is a very reliable general purpose sensor family that can be used in a number of other markets, including mylar detection in printing/paper applications, and glass detection in automotive applications.

Pepperl+Fuchs is a world leader in the design, manufacture and application of high quality factory and process automation products and services. Pepperl+Fuchs pioneered the development of proximity sensors 50 years ago, and has set the standard for innovation and quality ever since.

TS8 Floor Stand and Solid Base Pan Kits

Rittal’s TS8 floor stand kits elevate TS8 modular freestanding and disconnect enclosures where separation between the floor and the enclosure are necessary due to environmental hazards or cable conduit installation/access concerns. Solid base pan kits serve as an alternative to the standard TS8 cable gland plate base configuration and provide a solid, heavy-duty surface at the bottom of the enclosure.

IT Liquid Cooling Packages

Rittal’s scalable Liquid Cooling Pacages (LCPs) can handle high heat densities (up to 44 kW per rack) and adapt to changing requirements as quickly as needed – all while reducing energy consumption and costs by up to 30 to 45%. Heat energy from installed IT equipment is absorbed and removed from the rack, at the rack level, by water, and then fan modules circulate the cooled air created by this exchange through the equipment.
