PRODUCTS DRIVES, CONTROLS & MOTORS
SLIMLINE MOTOR CONTROLLERS
Small drives for machines and equipment are typically powered up to 9.0 A and protected by conventional motor circuit breakers. However, when space in the enclosure is limited, it is very difficult to find room for significant numbers of protective components. Rittal’s new motor controllers for its RiLine Compact power distribution system offers a sophisticated solution. To help engineers Rittal has produced
a 3D configurator that reduces the time required to generate Compact RiLine busbar systems. Following the successful launch of the busbar system RiLine Compact, Rittal is now expanding the product range. Until now, the small 125-A-max busbar system consisted entirely of shock-hazard-protected boards which form the basis of the system, along with assembly components such as connection adapters for busbar infeed and component adapters for the easy set-up of switchgear and protection devices produced by other manufacturers.
SOLID STATE DRIVES DELIVER MORE SPEED
SERVO MOTORS WITH MAXIMUM TORQUE DENSITY
B&R has taken the next step in development of its 8LS servo motors. Three newly designed size 5 motors in lengths A, B and C fill out the mid-range of the product line. Compared to their predecessors, they offer more compact dimensions and improved thermal design. The 8LS servo motors motors are highly dynamic and offer a high torque-overload ratio. They are said to be perfectly suited for applications such as plastics processing, printing presses and servo pumps. With a flange size of 142 mm, the motors deliver excellent torque density. Customers profit from more power with smaller space requirements. They can be combined with any of B&R's many gearbox options and shipped as pre-assembled motor-gearbox combinations. All motors from the 8LS series are offered with an optional digital encoder and optional safety functions. For the majority of speed variants, motors up to size 7 are also available with a single cable solution that combines the cables for the motor and encoder. This reduces cabling to a minimum and substantially reduces installation costs.

VIBRATION-DAMPING MOUNTING ELEMENTS
Rittal will be launching new motor controllers into the range which can be fitted directly and easily onto the board in a one-step installation to minimise the time and effort spent on wiring. A compact solution for small spaces,
Rittal offers motor controllers in three staggered current ranges: 8 A/2.4 A/8 A. These combine the functions of direct starter and reversing starter within one single device. Its slimline profile (22.5 mm wide) frees up around 50% more space compared to the standard 45 mm wide switching device in the range and as much as 75% more space compared to the 90 mm wide reversing combinations. The three-phase motor controller is a high performance hybrid switching device with a current monitoring function, offering a longer lifespan and low-loss operation. Rittal has produced a 3D configurator that reduces the time required to generate Compact RiLine busbar systems. A series of easy to follow steps produces detailed drawings, the ability to select component adaptors and a bill of materials.

Vibration damping elements in rubber bonded with steel/ stainless steel such as the Elesa DVE series are much used for applications with rotary machines. They are suitable for equipment that does not present big dynamic imbalances but where a degree of elasticity is required both vertically and transversely. DVE rubber damping mounts are therefore suitable for use with compressors, fans, vibrating feeders, rotary pumps or electric motors where vibration can cause malfunctioning and reduction of the machine lifespan and/or that of the adjacent equipment. They are important in the reduction of noise and potential
damage to the health of nearby personnel. The Elesa DVE series features a tapped circular boss with oval or square mounting plate in zinc plated steel, AISI 304 or 316 stainless. Standard specification is black natural rubber to Shore 40 and 60 for loads of from 62.5 N up to 20812 N.

tried to reach over the years. The series offers guaranteed endurance and high reliability with the industry’s highest rating of 4800TB Total Bytes Written (TBW) in compliance with JESD218 standards which is approximately eight times higher than the predecessor 850 PRO series. The SSD 860 EVO series targets use
with mainstream desktops and laptops. Like the PRO, it comes equipped with the newly designed MJX controller but features the manufacturer’s 3-bit V-NAND MLC technology. The 860 EVO delivers excellent sequential read and write performance – up to 550MB/s and 520MB/s speeds, respectively, along with highly sustainable performance for everyday computing applications. Available in a wide range of memory
capacities, the SSD 860 PRO and EVO series of SSDs from Samsung are shipping now from RS in the EMEA and Asia Pacific regions.

RS Components (RS) has introduced the SSD 860 range of solid-state drives (SSDs) from Samsung. Based on the manufacturer’s cutting-edge 3D Vertical NAND (V-NAND) multi-level-cell (MLC) flash-memory technology, the 860 range improves on Samsung’s popular SSD 850 range of SSDs to deliver enhanced speed, reliability and capacity for users. The SSDs are available in two series: the PRO which targets use with high-end and enterprise computing devices; and the EVO which has been specially designed for general consumer computing applications. The 860 PRO drives have been
designed to achieve highly sustainable and dependable performance and handle heavy daily data-transfer workloads. Based on Samsung’s latest 64-layer 2-bit V-NAND architecture, the series comes equipped with the company’s newly designed MJX controller to deliver best-in-class sequential read and write speeds: up to 560 and 530 megabytes per second (MB/s) performance, respectively. This level of performance starts to approach the theoretical bandwidth limitation of 600MB/s for the legacy Serial-ATA (SATA) interface, which many SSD manufacturers have
