Schmersal Safety Installation Systems

The right solution for every application 

Schmersal safety installation systems are aids for configuring complex machine systems with quick and simple wiring of safety switchgear in series, significantly reducing the wiring involved. A particular benefit of this installation system is that different electronic safety switchgear systems, such as sensors and interlocks, can be mixed and connected in the relevant application. With larger systems, different machine areas often need to be secured using different safety switches. At the same time, the new system offers cost-optimized options for applications exclusively using electronic safety switchgear. 

The safety installation systems also allow individual diagnosis of the safety switchgear connected. This means the operator can clearly identify which switch in the series has triggered a signal. Therefore, any errors can be fixed quickly and machine downtime can be avoided. The safety installation systems from Schmersal thus increase machine availability. 

Aside from standard I/O devices, an option also exists to connect safety sensors and interlocks with serial diagnosis. Comprehensive diagnostic data can be transferred to a control system via the SD gateway by means of series diagnostics.

Bussmann by Eaton Enclosed CCP-CF now available up to 100 amps

Bussmann by Eaton's Compact Circuit Protector for Class CF CUBEFuse is available enclosed for 30, 60 and 100 amp versions 

Earlier this year, they launched the 30 amp CCP-CC and both the 30 and 60 amp CCP-CF as enclosed disconnects. 

This month, they're pleased to add the 100 amp CCP-CF to our enclosed offering. 

The compact NEMA enclosures they offer provide an easy solution for both retrofit and new installations. These are available with a black/grey or red/yellow handle for disconnecting means, and support a 2- or 3-pole CCP. It's easily applied as an "in-sight disconnect means" for compliance with NEC 110.9.

Banner Engineering LM80 Sensor

Banner Engineering LM80 sensors are now available in an even more precise model that features a 0.002 mm analog resolution at a range of 40-80 mm. The new LM80 model also features a smaller spot size (less than 1 mm at all measurement ranges) to detect even smaller features and take more measurements over the face of the target for even more precise profiling.

FEATURES

• High Performance in Real-World Conditions: LM sensors repeatably measure real-world targets with varying colors and reflectivity. In addition, LM sensors feature a thermally stable design that resists temperature changes, as well as enhanced mounting stability, for high accuracy in the toughest environments. The new LM80 has a temperature effect of +/-0.006 mm/°C. This is imperative for high precision applications since even a few degrees of temperature change can cause other sensors' measurement error to double.


• Reliability at High Speeds: Featuring a fast 0.5 ms response speed and 0.25 ms sampling rate, LM sensors reliably solve high-speed applications with fast-moving targets.


• IO-Link Communication to Support the Smart Factory and IIoT: With IO-Link communication, users can remotely monitor sensor performance, easily identify and analyze trends in inspection results, and predict when maintenance is needed so that problems like a dirty lens can be resolved before sensor failure.


• An All-in-One Device: LM sensors provide discrete, analog, and IO-Link capabilities all in one device, which enables flexibility and reduces inventory requirements.


• Quick Setup and Replacement: LM sensors can be programmed via IO-Link or an optional Remote Sensor Display (RSD). The RSD remote display enables remote setup and monitoring, and it stores up to 6 configurations to facilitate product changeover and simplify device replacement. The RSD can remain in-line to easily monitor sensors in difficult-to-reach locations, or it can be removed after configuration.

Banner Engineering Q45VA Wireless Condition Monitoring Sensor

Identify equipment problems early before a failure can occur by monitoring the health of motors, fans, pumps, and similar equipment. Banner's wireless Q45VA sensor measures RMS velocity and temperature and sends that information to a DXM wireless controller over a wireless network. The all-in-one design and wireless infrastructure make it easy to deploy devices, collect machine data, track performance, and find potential problems.

FEATURES

• One Cost-Effective Device for Rapid Deployment: The Q45VA combines a vibration and temperature sensor, wireless node, and battery power supply in one compact and completely wireless device that costs less than purchasing the sensor and node separately. The all-in-one design eliminates the time, labor, and expense of installing separate sensors and nodes—a significant advantage for large-scale deployments.


• Reduce Downtime and Increase Efficiency: Use one or more Q45VA wireless vibration and temperature sensors with a DXM wireless controller running Banner’s machine learning algorithm for a solution capable of establishing a vibration baseline for each machine being monitored and alerting operators when parameters are outside established thresholds.


• Local and Remote Monitoring: View graphs of vibration and temperature data, create alerts, store, and analyze data from multiple assets using a Wireless Solutions Kit (sold separately) and Q45VA wireless vibration and temperature sensors. Or create your own solution using Banner’s Connected Data Solutions cloud software in combination with Q45VA sensors and a DXM Series wireless controller.
