Omron AC Servo System 1S Series: State of the Art Servo Technology Applied to General Purpose
AutomationDirect has added the new IronHorse MTRJ series of jet pump motors to their AC motor lineup. The MTRJ centrifugal jet pump motors offer an economical motor solution and come in a TEFC enclosure with a 56J frame that has a threaded shaft for direct connection to a jet pump. These jet pump motors are available in 120/230 VAC from 1/3 to 2hp and in 208-230/460 VAC from 1/3 to 3hp at 3600rpm. They have a bolt-on – bolt-off base and single-phase models that include built-in thermal protection.
April 23, 2024 Small product, big impact: Five decades ago, the company revolutionized connection technology in electrical installation with the splicing connector. The phrase “Got to have a WAGO” has been firmly anchored in the vocabulary of every professional electrician since its launch in 1974. Even today, “WAGO” stands for speed, safety and maintenance-free operation…

Weidmüller’s scalable engineering software, u-control 2000, adapts individually to your requirements. And, the u-control is powerful, compact and fully compatible with Weidmüller’s I/O system u-remote. This article looks at what makes u-control the heart of your automation.
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are one of the main components of any automated system. A typical control system has inputs, outputs, controllers (i.e., PLCs), and some type of human interaction with the system, a human machine interface (HMI), for example.
November 4, 2025 By Mathias Blake, Martin Hsu, Ivan Goldwasser, Harry Petty and Jared Huntington The exponential growth of AI workloads is increasing data centre power demands. Traditional 54 V in-rack power distribution, designed for kilowatt (KW)-scale racks, isn’t designed to support the megawatt (MW)-scale racks coming soon to modern AI factories. NVIDIA is leading the transition to 800 VDC data… Read More…
November 4, 2025 As data centres grow in higher densities to support AI-enabled workloads and more complicated operations, keeping the Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) at optimum is critical at this time. Downtime is never acceptable. Also, without being able to see electrical systems in real-time, such as substations, UPS, switchgear, and HVAC, failures will take… Read More…
