Manufactured with reliable screw-clamp connection technology, Phoenix Contact UT 2.5-3L modular terminal blocks feature three terminal levels with corrosion-resistant copper alloy components. The innovative Reakdyne design prevents screws from backing out, and these triple-level blocks support robust FBS push-in bridging for power distribution.
UT 2.5-3L terminal blocks have current ratings of 300 V at 20 A or 600 V at 5 A* with 26-12 AWG under UL file # E60425.
The UT series supports numerous mission-critical applications in control systems across many industries. Ideal for use within industrial automation and machine building sectors, UT is famous among users in energy, process/oil & gas and water treatment industries.
*These limited ratings are applicable for use in or with industrial control equipment whereby the load on any single circuit does not exceed 15 A at 51-150V; 10 A at 151-300V; or 5 A at 301-600 V, or the maximum ampere rating, whichever is less.

Red Lion announces support of Banner Engineering's iVu® Plus TG vision sensors via their G3 series HMI, Modular Controller and Data Station Plus. The new iVu Image driver, available in Crimson 3.0’s most recent release, joins a list of over 200 serial and Ethernet communications drivers included with Red Lion’s acclaimed programming software.
This new image driver affords the ability to display the image output from the Banner iVu Plus TG on Red Lion’s 8”, 10” and 15” G3 series HMIs, allowing these touchscreens to be used for commissioning and operation of Banner’s latest generation of vision sensor. With multiple protocol support built into every Red Lion interface product, a second protocol can be chosen to acquire data from the iVu Plus TG. Once collected, the G3 series HMI, Modular Controller or Data Station Plus can convert the data to a different protocol so that the iVu can be integrated with virtually any PLC, PC or SCADA system. The data may also be recorded in IT-friendly CSV file format for later review, using the built-in data logging facilities.

Red Lion proudly introduces the ProducTVity Station™, the only ready-to-deploy solution for collecting, recording and displaying critical key performance indicators and machine status messages on any TV, monitor, or projector equipped with a DVI/HDMI interface.
Lean manufacturing, six-sigma, total quality management, continuous improvement – All of these terms refer, in some form or another, to the efforts of companies as they strive to become more competitive in a global economy. While various strategies are implemented in order to improve productivity, they all have two things in common – the collection of KPIs – key performance indicators – and the communication of those KPIs to the people who can most affect improvement – the production floor personnel.
The ProducTVity Station excels at collecting data from a range of automation components. With a library of over 200 communications drivers, the PTV can communicate to PLCs, motor drives, motion controllers, bar code scanners and more. The PTV can also be expanded with CS series I/O modules, allowing it to accept digital and analog inputs from a range of sensors.
With its fully programmable graphical interface, the PTV allows users to create high-definition visual management displays without the limits imposed by traditional LED-based lean manufacturing displays. Eye-catching displays that combine KPIs along with andon messages can easily be created. The ProducTVity Station’s 720p (1280 x 780 resolution) DVI output is compatible with both 720p and 1080p/i TVs with DVI or HDMI interfaces.
The PTV’s built-in data-logger can record key performance indicators, as well as andon events for later review, and can synchronize the log files with any FTP server and/or Microsoft’s SQL Server® for further analysis.
The ProducTVity Station extends production monitoring to remote personnel by providing email and text alerts, and its built-in webserver allows productivity information to be monitored via any networked PC or smart-phone. If enabled, remote personnel can take partial or full control of the system remotely, allowing a maintenance person to effect changes without a site visit.
The ProducTVity Station ships complete with a 2GB CompactFlash card, as well as a DVI to HDMI cable (15´), and HDMI/DVI adapter. The PTV is programmed with Red Lion’s popular Crimson® software.

Following in the tradition of their rugged components and industrial monitors, Pepperl+Fuchs is expanding the VisuNet Industrial family with operator workstations manufactured using all industrial-grade components. The workstations are rated for General Purpose, Class I & II, Division 2, and ATEX Zone 2 hazardous areas and designed for 24/7 operation.
VisuNet IND solutions are a key component in plant floor visualization systems. Each workstation is a single production floor interface that manages recipes, monitors control variables and alarm systems, and controls drilling operations. Each system has been engineered to endure the most stringent and unyielding environments, from room temperature applications such as filling lines, to drilling rigs in the Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea!
Under the hood!
VisuNet IND workstations are available with integral PC, KVM or RM technologies designed for 24/7 operation in the harshest environments. These units have a variety of display options that include anti-glare, transflective, resistive and hardened resistive touchscreen glass.
Remote Monitor, what's that?
Pepperl+Fuchs remote monitor technology offers many advantages:
- Standard Ethernet networking connections to the server
- Access multiple workstations from one server - less IT infrastructure
- Supports RDP applications: Microsoft® terminal services, Citrix® ICA, or VNC RFB
- Compressed video traffic - only changes in graphics are transmitted
- No software to install, or revisions to manage - transparent to the operator
- Low power consumption allows the unit to conserve energy and dissipate very little heat when idling
