T SENSORPRO – A DEVELOPMENT IN
BENDER RESIDUAL CURRENT MONITORS FOR EVEN SMARTER NETWORKS
A
new improved range of SensorPRO residual current monitors (RCM) is available from
Bender. Three Bender RCM sensor ranges have been
announced - Modular, Compact and Split Core. Resulting from recent product investment in the new improved sensors are designed for use demanding industrial applications. With improved functionalities, enhanced flexibility and modular construction, the SensorPRO range is simpler and less expensive for users to integrate, install and retrofit into electrical installations, machinery and final circuits. Modular RCM – MRCDB300/RCMB300
Series The improved intelligent modular RCM
measures AC/DC current in earthed systems from 20kHz - 100kHz. These 24v powered single channel CTs have greater sensitivity up to 100kHz enabling faster, more effective fault-finding and enhanced
system protection. The sensors have integrated open communications interface to Modbus RTU
facilitating links to PLCs, building management systems and other smart networks. The networked communication via universal interfaces and protocols enables sophisticated data collection and a step away from manual data collection as expected by the internet of things (IoT) and Industry 4.0. The modular CT sensor comprises housing, core and winding and is coupled with a
Type B CT electronic module CTUB10X or MRCDB30X and RCMB30X. Incorporating magnetic shielding for applications over 500 amps with high, rapidly changing inrush and pulse currents these new residual current monitors are perfect for welding applications, power distribution, sub-stations and oil and gas platforms. More cost effective and easier to integrate, this new modular range saves space,
reduces installation time and ongoing maintenance costs. Available in sizes 20, 35, 60, 120 and 210mm diameters, the smart, intelligent sensors match the expectations of electrical engineering teams. The modular future proof design and size range is perfect for customised requirements, reducing the cost and number of components required in design and build, and enabling simpler swap and replace of components in future system reworks and upgrades. Compact RCM - RCMB13X Series The RCMB13x series delivers AC/DC sensitive residual current measurement up to 2
kHz and 100mA, combining sensor technology and evaluation electronics in a single- channel smart 15mm device. Utilising standard 24v power supply the integrated RS-485 interface with Modbus RTU
allows the sensor to communicate with higher level systems, or alternatively with a pulse width modulation (PWM) where Modbus is not available. More compact in size, the new sensors are more affordable and cost efficient to use.
They are suited to OEM, manufacturing, machinery and power distribution applications units such as tap-off boxes and data centre bus bars - a regular source of current leakage. The sensors are available in PCB or DIN rail mount options. Split Core RCM - RCMB330/CTBS25 Fully certified RCMB330 is the first split core CT clamp-on monitor for AC/DC current
fault finding to be developed by Bender. It delivers AC/DC residual current measurement for critical industry applications installations that cannot tolerate loss of power or shutdown. Installation of these devices without shutting down is now possible making installation fast and easy, eliminating costly power downs.

he new, smart and uniquely compact Laser Doppler Speed and Length Sensor - SL and SLR
that sets new standards in non-contact speed and length measurement of moving objects and materials in industrial applications. Designed to replace cumbersome, inaccurate and high-wear contact wheel encoders that are prone to excessive measurement errors due to slippage, vibration, wear and dirt, resulting in product give- away and quality issues. The non-contact laser technology provides an industry leading accuracy of +/-0.05% without need to ever re-calibrate due to wear. The internal measurement rate is 200kHz with one measurement output every 20 microseconds. Communication is via Ethernet, RS-232, Wifi or bus options. Plus a complete range of installation accessories including anti-vibration mounts, display units, temperature and dust control. Full technical support on the sensor and laser safety is available from TTS Systems. So, if you have a speed or length measurement application contact us - 01233 624422 or sales@tts-

NEW 0.5AMP LARGE PXI MATRIX MODULES FROM PICKERING INTERFACES
simulation for electronic test and verification, has launched a new 0.5Amp ultra-high-density PXI matrix module family that delivers up to 6,144 crosspoints. With a switching density 39% higher than competing devices, the 40-558 allows a complete functional ATE system to be housed in a single 3U PXI chassis, and the integrated BRIC design saves on valuable chassis slots compared to standard PXI matrix modules. Part of Pickering Interfaces’ BRIC large PXI Matrices range, the new 40-558 modules
P
are available in two, four or eight-slot widths for matrix sizes between 64x16 and 1,008x6. The modules are fitted with high quality, ruthenium-sputtered reed relays – manufactured by sister company, Pickering Electronics – which feature a very long life with good low-level switching performance and excellent contact resistance stability. Automatic isolation relay switching maximizes bandwidth and reliability. Spare relays are included with the module to facilitate easy maintenance with minimum downtime.
