Banner: Industrial Wireless Controller: DXM Series

January 24, 2019

DXM Series industrial wireless controllers are designed to facilitate Ethernet connectivity and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications. Available with an internal DX80 Gateway or a MultiHop Data Radio, these powerful Modbus communications devices connect local wireless networks with the internet and/or host systems.

  • ISM radios available in 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz for local wireless network
  • Converts Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP/IP or Ethernet I/P
  • Logic controller can be programmed using action rules and text language methods
  • Micro SD card for data logging
  • Email and text alerts
  • Local I/O options: isolated discrete inputs, universal inputs, SPDT (Form C) relay outputs, NMOS outputs, and analog outputs
  • Powered by 12 to 30 V dc, 12 V dc solar panel, or battery backup
  • RS-232, RS-485, and Ethernet communications ports; and a USB configuration port
  • LCD display for I/O information and user programmable LED’s
  • Cell modem for cellular connectivity

Auto-Idle – PS61 Series Pressure Switch from Gems Sensors & Controls

 

As emissions regulations continue to get stricter, OEMS are looking for ways to meet or beat the specifications to ensure that their equipment is in compliance. One of the largest adders to emissions is idling gas/diesel-powered equipment. As an operator is using a machine, they will increase the idle RPM so that there is plenty of power on the PTO (Power Take Off). Having this extra power allows the machinery to operate efficiently and without strain.

Siemens Introduces First Soft Starters with Integrated Safe Torque Off Functionality

The SIRIUS 3RW55 Failsafe soft starters are the first to feature the integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) function. This ensures that the motor comes to a complete standstill if an operator initiates an emergency shutdown. The motor then remains in this state until the restart interlock is used to restart it.
