New RF1V Force Guided Relays Offer Fast Response Times And Enhanced Safety

Force Guided Relays are often used in safety circuits to detect failures such as contact welding and damage to the contact spring, This requires them to meet international standards such as EN50205. Exceeding these strict standards, new RF1V Force Guided Relays also offer faster response times ensuring your circuit is able to open quickly providing the safety you need, fast. Improved anti-shock properties mean these relays can be used safely in high shock and vibration environments such as in machine tools and other factory equipment. Plus an optional built-in LED allows for quick and easy detection if power is applied to the relay.

This makes RF1V ideal for use with production equipment for automobiles and semiconductors, as well elevator controls where the use of force guided relays is required by international safety standards. In combination with IDEC emergency stop switches, interlock switches and other safety input devices and safety control units, we offer a complete line of safety products to meet all your requirements.

Next Generation LED Light Towers: Super-Bright With Unique, Modular Design

LD6A SignaLights utilize LED technology to provide a bright solution for supervising workstations or indicating the status of a process. These light towers have a unique ellipse lens shape and modern design, which uses a contrast of illuminated and non-illuminated areas to provide sharper illumination and increased visibility of status. Optional clear lenses provide a sharper contrast to help avoid confusion about whether a signal is on or off. Lenses are also available in red, yellow, blue, green and pure white, which work with 24V DC base units.

All LD6A light towers come prewired and preconfigured, eliminating time-consuming wiring. All colored tiers come with color-coded wires, ready-to-operate right out of the box without additional assembly and wiring. All units also come with mounting screws and washers.

Color Sensors For The Detection Of Minimal Color Differences

The New CONTRINEX Color Sensors are well suited for color control as well as for use in color sorting processes. The devices feature 3 teachable color channels with independent 200 mA outputs, which allow for three color tones to be programmed. In addition, the teach process offers a choice of 5 different tolerance levels. Whereas small tolerances allow for minimal color differences to be recognized without fail, larger tolerances permit a certain color variation. Due to the unique optics of the Contrinex color sensor, color detection within the operating range of 30 mm to 40 mm is virtually independent of target distance.

  • Detection virtually independent of target distance
  • 5 switching tolerance levels: various, even minimal, color differences can be recognized or ignored
  • 3 teachable color channels with independent outputs
  • High switching frequency: up to 4 kHz
  • 10-bit precision of R, G and B signals
  • Adjustable pulse delay and stretching
  • Small standard housing size (40 x 50 x 15 mm) with adjustable connector
  • Insulation class II

New High-Frequency RFID System (13.56 MHz) According To ISO/IEC 15693.

In addition to its RFID system with all-metal components for particularly demanding environments (low-frequency technology), Contrinex has now also developed an RFID product range which works according to high-frequency technology (13.56 MHz). This new standard system allows for the integration of all tags complying with the requirements of the ISO/IEC 15693 standard. It is moreover particularly user friendly, due to the fact that its read/write modules can be connected directly to an RS485 field bus.

In this way, a network of up to 253 read/write modules may be built up. By means of a USB adaptor, up to 10 read/write modules can be directly addressed physically from a control console. The physical address of a specific read/write module is determined by means of a selector built into the device. And by programming each read/write module separately, up to 253 addresses can be controlled. To ensure easy use of the system, a demo programme provides the user with an introduction to the system.

Model 777-P2 Series Overload Relays

The Model 777-P2 Series is a Family Of Fully Programmable Electronic Overload Relays. They are designed to monitor and protect any 3-phase 200-480VAC (500-600VAC for 777-575-P2) motor drawing 2-800 full load amps (external CTs are required above 90 amps). They provide unsurpassed protection from faulty voltage, underload and overload conditions. Common applications include conveyor systems, HVAC equipment, saws and grinders, fan motors and almost any pumping application.

Model 777-P2 Series Overload Relays

The 777-P2 Series units can be used as a stand-alone product or the RS-485 communications port can be used to form a network to communicate with a PC, PLC or SCADA system. The 777-P2 units can be used with CIO modules produced by SymCom for several types of communication protocols. Up to 99 model 777-P2 units can be networked together and monitored and controlled by SymCom's Solutions software. The units can also be connected to SymCom's remote monitors for a simple, cost-effective way to meet new requirements for arc-flash safety.

The 777-P2 Series units incorporate a 3-digit LED display that is used for programming, providing real-time operational information, and displaying diagnostic codes to aid in troubleshooting a fault condition. The unit's many features include enhanced trip classes beyond the NEMA standard trip classes. The settable trip class range is 2-60, with or without jam protection, and a secondary linear trip delay can be set with a range of 0-60 seconds. If both trip class and linear trip delay are set, the 777-P2 will follow the faster trip time. Another feature is the automatic dry-well recovery timer that allows the unit to automatically select a restart delay based on the last cycle's run time. This allows the 777-P2 to optimize restart delay times. The units can be pre-programmed with a 9-volt battery prior to actual installation. This can save a lot of time during initial installations and avoid subsequent service calls when commissioning new projects.

Two-Input Liquid Level Control Relays

The PC-xxx-LLC-CZ is a Liquid Level Control Relay used to control conductive liquid pumping operations in a pump-up or pump-down application. The unit comes in two different voltage ranges. The model PC-100-LLC-CZ is for 95-120VAC applications and the model PC-200-LLC-CZ is for 190-240VAC applications.

The unit has an adjustable sensitivity knob (4.7-100K ohms) that is set according to the resistance level at which you want the probes (sold separately) to sense the conductive liquid. The unit has a built-in debounce time delay that prevents the relay from energizing if the probe resistance momentarily goes above or below the sensitivity setpoint (due to liquid splashing in the tank).

Model PC-XXX-LLC-CZ & PC-XXX-LLC-GM

The unit operates its internal relay based on inputs from a high and low probe and a common reference (when a conductive tank is used) or common probe (when a non-conductive tank is used). Pump-up application: when the liquid level drops and the low probe resistance increases above the sensitivity setpoint, the relay energizes to run the pump and fill the tank. When the liquid level rises and the high probe resistance decreases below the sensitivity setpoint, the relay de-energizes to stop the pump. Pump-down application: when the liquid level rises and the high probe resistance decreases below the sensitivity setpoint, the relay energizes to run the pump and empty the tank. When the liquid level drops and the low probe resistance increases above the sensitivity setpoint, the relay de-energizes to stop the pump. The unit can also be configured to work with a single probe input and a common reference (or common probe).

Intrinsic Safety Made Easy

SymCom, Inc. (Rapid City, SD) has introduced Model ISS-102 dual-channel, intrinsically safe switches meeting UL 913 6th Edition (Aug 8, 2002). Several ISS-102 models are available each with distinct output relay configurations offering the versatility to control a variety of systems. Whether you need a pump-up or pump-down latching controller; a seal-leak detector; or a simple intrinsically safe, two-channel switch, there is an ISS-102 to manage the job. Additional ISS-102 options include variable resistance thresholds for probe inputs and invert logic configuration for use with normally open or normally closed input switches. Bi-color LEDs clearly indicate output relay state. The ISS-102 is surface or DIN rail (35mm) mountable.
