ADVERTORIAL TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION


Switch Supply to Permanent Conversion Pack from Scolmore I


n the light of the Grenfell tragedy, the need for stringent fire safety measures continues to be a focus, and building


owners, councils and landlords all have a duty to ensure the properties they are responsible for meet the very latest safety standards. This has led to the growing requirement to install wired smoke detectors in residential buildings. This can give rise to problems as lighting circuits with a


switched live will not always have a permanent feed at the light fitting, which creates a problem when it comes to adding another device such as a smoke detector. The result is increased labour, plus mess and disruption to the décor in order to run additional cable to get the permanent live feed where it is needed.


Wieland’s Safety in motion – functional safety encoders


T


he new Safe SENC incremental encoder with HTL interface from Wieland Electric is available as an


accessory to the Wieland Samos range or for use with other third party systems and makes it possible to monitor the speed, direction, and position of the motor and/or machine load to provide secure feedback. Unlike a standard encoder, this safety encoder allows speed and angle at the axes to be reliably measured, achieving an unparalleled safety level to PLe (acc. EN13849) and SIL3 (acc. IEC61508). It is suitable for safety rated speed, direction and position monitoring of all machines. The SENC incremental encoder offers up to 1024ppr depending on accuracy requirements and is available in sizes 58mm and 90mm with hollow or solid shafts along with matching cables and accessories.
