September 13, 2024 By Krystie Johnston Canada is undergoing an energy transition to become more sustainable, reduce emissions, and reach net zero targets. Wiser Energy from Schneider Electric is an integral Energy Management System that monitors devices and energy usage in real-time, helping you use electrical energy more wisely in your building. Buildings are the…
The new Allen-Bradley E100 Electronic Motor Overload Relay can help industrial companies better protect their motors and avoid unplanned downtime. As the next generation of Allen-Bradley electronic overload relays, it more accurately measures a motor’s current load, models its temperature and shuts the motor off when it’s in danger of damage due to overheating.
This 1-axis motion controller features Ethernet/RS232 communication and an optional 800W Servo Drive The DMC-3x01x Motion Controller Series is Galil’s latest generation single-axis motion controller. It uses a 32-bit RISC processor to provide higher speed than older models. Like all Galil controllers, programming the DMC-3x01x is simplified with two-letter, intuitive commands and a full set of software tools for servo…
nVent Electric plc, a global provider of electrical connection and protection solutions, recently announced the launch of the nVent RAYCHEM Elexant 9200i Wireless Communications Interface. The 9200i establishes wireless connectivity between nVent RAYCHEM Electric Heat Trace Controllers and nVent RAYCHEM Supervisor software, maintaining remote monitoring and configuration capabilities, but as an alternative to hardwired communications.
