Wieland’s wienet Managed Switches provide full
network control M
anaged Switches from Wieland Electric allow
full control and diagnosis of industrial Ethernet networks. By means of standard ring topology, the switches allow redundant topologies and thereby boost network availability. These switches offer protection against unauthorised access/data traffic, greater resilience and prioritisation of data with real-time requirements.
wienet Managed Switches support processes including
ERPS, RSTP, STP and MRP for Profinet networks (certified up to Conformance Class B) and are adapted for Ethernet IPs. Different port variants from 10/100 Base- T(X) RJ45 ports to variable SFP ports and even Gigabit Combo ports allow for optimal adaptation to the application environment. The full PoE+ performance of 30 W can be tapped with a 51 VDC power supply up to a maximum of 8 ports. The switches meet the highest requirements with their operating temperature range of - 20°C to 75°C as well as their excellent MV properties. The wienet Managed Switches support clock synchronisation according to IEEE 1588 PTP and are also ideally suited to Motion Control applications.

Si124 Ultrasonic Imaging Camera Now Available Globally
A
coustic imaging, or the ability to see ultrasonic sound, has emerged as an effective method for manufacturing and utility organizations to locate compressed air leaks or the existence of partial discharge (PD). It enables professionals to conduct more frequent predictive maintenance routines, to help provide a crucial first warning of impending electrical/mechanical failure that could lead to energy loss and even worse, downtime of critical systems.
To help customers take advantage of the benefits of ultrasonic imaging, FLIR today made its Si124 industrial
acoustic imaging camera available for purchase globally:
www.flir.com/products/si124 The FLIR Si124 industrial acoustic imaging camera senses, displays and records sound waves producing a
precise acoustic image. The acoustic image is overlaid, in real time, onto a digital camera image all with an easy-to-use, ergonomic, one-handed camera solution weighing a little more than 2 pounds (980 grams). The blended visual and sound image can be viewed live on screen to help users´ pinpoint issues from the
sound source, helping staff identify issues up to 10 times faster than traditional inspection methods. FLIR

Sensors for Extreme Temperature
Conditions Available from ATC Semitec
R
eliable thermal protection is
critical for machinery or equipment that is operating at extreme temperatures. Failure at either extreme can be critical. Hereaus Nexensos, manufacture a range of platinum
film sensor PRTDs (Pt100) which with key characteristics of linearity, reliability and stability reinforce their suitability of their use in extreme conditions. The Heraeus thin-film, cryogenic C-series Pt100/ Pt1000
RTD elements operate down to -196°C, being to cover most “low temperature” cryogenic applications. Approval of Pfizer- BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine has rapidly increased the demand for vessels capable of storing and transporting vaccine at -80°C and below. Heraeus C220 RTDs easily cover this temperature range giving peace of mind in temperature critical applications. If operating in the region of 600°C~900°C, then
Heraeus H-series high-temperature elements can sense and regulate your heater, furnace or exhaust gas sensor application. Top of the range HDA420s (Pt200) are capable of operating up to 900°C and intermittently to 950°C. These are typically supplied to the automotive, laboratory and process technology markets. For further information, samples, UK stock on this Heraeus range of Platinum PRTD sensors contact ATC Semitec
