TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION


his year at the HANNOVER MESSE (7th - 11th April 2014) PFLITSCH presented its latest solutions in the field of cable glands and trunking for future-proof cable management in industry in Hall 13, Stand E99 under the slogan "Industry in Focus".


Cable glands and trunking T


PFLITSCH favours the concept of system modules for cable glands and trunking, an approach which allows application-specific cable entries and routing to be economically configured and installed. Current examples include customer-specific EMC solutions that bring together the advantages of the UNI Dicht® and blueglobe® series with PFLITSCH's EMC expertise. In this way, for example, PFLITSCH combines the UNI Multiple with the TRI spring concept of the blueglobe TRI® to allow several screened cables to be fed through one hole into a housing, safely and without wasting space. These EMC solutions are designed for a wide variety of applications in machine engineering, electrical engineering, automation and railway engineering.

mparro67 power supply units are specially designed for applications outside the control cabinet. They withstand extreme environmental conditions and can be installed directly in the field, next to the loads. This makes them the ideal solution for decentralized installation concepts. Power loss is reduced to a

minimum. Such losses occur if power supply units are used with an output voltage of 24 VDC and the power is supplied to the loads with cables that are too long. By using Emparro67, the voltage is converted from 230 VAC to 24 VDC


directly at the load. By doing this, the power loss is much lower and the energy costs are reduced. Installing the power supply units outside the cabinet by using Emparro67 offers many more benefits: Smaller cabinets can be used, in some applications it may even be possible to completely get rid of the cabinets. Another excellent feature of Emparro67 is its power boost function.

New busbar trunking system


enter 834


he Sivacon 8PS LI system, which will replace the existing LX system, is a busbar trunking system developed by Siemens for high currents up to 6,300 amperes. The new system meets the most important European safety standards and supports energy management by integrating communications- capable measuring and protection devices in the tap-off units. Thanks to a compact design, it can also be flexibly installed in small spaces. The hook and bold connection guarantee low-loss busbar junctions with high contact quality for efficient power transmission. Busbar trunking systems are used in place of cables for safe and flexible power distribution in buildings and industrial plants. The new busbar trunking system is particularly suitable for transmitting power in the range of 800 A to 6,300 A over long distances and in small spaces. Thanks to a compact sandwich design, high currents can be transmitted in horizontal and vertical irrespective of the mounting position with a low voltage drop.
