A new dimension of on- machine power supply


T


he innovative Emparro67 Hybrid power supply is an all- rounder with many powerful features: it not only


relocates power supply from the control cabinet to the industrial field, but it also monitors currents using two integrated channels for 24 VDC load circuit monitoring, to ensure high operational reliability. An IO-Link interface permits extensive and transparent communication. IP67 power supply units of the Emparro line are designed


for applications outside the control cabinet. All components are protected from mechanical stress. The compact and robust metal housing is fully potted and protected from dirt, humidity and cooling lubricants in the rough industrial field. Their high energy efficiency – up to 93.8 percent of the energy applied is used – allows the units to be touched, even when under full load owing to their low surface temperature. This makes the power supply units a real all- rounder for many different applications.

automation solutions, KUKA do not define our standards by what already exists, but by the manufacturing needs of the future. In 2004, we set a milestone in the history of robotics with the world’s first cobot (collaborative robot) the LBR iiwa (intelligent industrial work assistant). Since then, we have merged additional strands and interwoven them to form novel production landscapes in which humans, technology and data streams are fully networked.


A The result of this synergy – the LBR iisy – is incredibly effective and impressive both in industrial series


production and in environments with dynamic, unstructured workplaces previously closed to automation. The LBR iisy technology is based on KUKA’s LBR iiwa and the KR 3 AGILUS and can master diverse worlds of


production. The cobot supports all major industry-standard functions such as OPC UA, field bus protocols, digital and analogue I/O’s, safety and much more. As a result, the LBR iisy can be immediately integrated into any existing industrial environment. Not only is it easy to operate, but is also highly versatile. Whether for loading or unloading machines, packaging, precise testing, reliable assembly, handling or difficult research tasks – its payload of 3 kg and reach of 600 mm are perfectly suited to the challenges of confined workspaces, and even in the event of unplanned interruptions, it remembers every motion or activity executed and can resume working without the need to be retaught.

Sensata’s NOVA22 Solid State Relay Now Features 45mm DIN Rail Model


New SSR offers higher power ratings, IP20 protection and output wire capacity up to 3 AWG with quick, ‘no-accessories-necessary’ installation


calculations, simplifying the specification process for the user. Cage clamp output connections provide a finger touch-safe IP20 protection rating and allow for quick and easy installation of large wires directly to the SSR, without the need for lug terminals or other accessories. Input connection options include standard ‘screw’ or ‘spring’ cage terminals for flexible design into a variety of applications. “The innovative cage clamp connection design


makes the DR45 the only SSR that can accept wire sizes up to 3 AWG with a true IP20 protection rating,” said Jesus Miranda, Sensata Technologies Product Manager. Designed for superior thermal performance, the


NOVA22 family for use in industrial machinery, HVAC&R and railway vehicles. This new DIN rail mount SSR offers high power density up to 60 Amps at 40°C in a compact, 45mm package and is the only SSR capable of accepting output wires up to 3 AWG with an IP20 protection rating. The SSR is ready-to-use with integrated heat sinks designed to provide the appropriate thermal resistance for the application without the need for cumbersome

ensata Technologies (ST) has added the Crydom DR45 Series solid state relay (SSR) to its innovative


DR45 solid state relay also features optional built-in overvoltage protection, contactor configurations and either AC or DC control. The new SSR is available in a wide AC output voltage range of 48 to 600 VAC and holds C-UL-US, VDE, CE and RoHS approvals. With its versatile current-carrying capacity levels, the DR45 broadens the array of applications for the NOVA22 DIN Rail mount products which include access control, HVAC&R, industrial ovens, food processing and packaging equipment, railway vehicles and more. In addition to its newest DR45 series, the NOVA22


family includes 22.5mm DIN rail and panel mount solid state relays with power density up to 95 Amps at 600 VAC, the DRML1 load monitoring module that detects partial or total load failure up to eight loads and the PMP Series of Proportional Controllers.

New FSC-1114 fuse blown indicating module


T


he new FSC-1114 fuse blown indicating module, designed to distribute a supply voltage, is a DIN rail mounting


module, that has 10 common indicating fuse blown outputs. Each fused channel can handle up to 7.5A, with a maximum of 40A max for the module. In the event of a fuse being blown a relay is energized and the volt free contacts can be used to signal the problem to the SCADA system or raise a local alarm. The Daito blown fuse gives an indication that it is open circuit, individual Channel fuses purchased separately can be 1A, 1.6A, 2A, 3.2A, 5A or 7.5A. The module can be purchased for use with 110Vac or 12,


24, 48, 110 and 120Vdc power distribution The FSC1114 joins a range of other Colter Products SCADA friendly products signaling fuse status. Visit our website to view our power distribution and


relay products. The Supervisory system allows maintenance engineers to be quickly informed of the problem and the location when using the FSC1114.
