New safety edges
Easy mounting and excellent performance are the key points of two new product
families from Bircher Reglomat AG.
The new
Click-Line rubber profiles allow for fast and easy mounting. Made with a
special foot, they can be mounted by "clicking" them into a C-rail without the
usual pulling-in from the side. This safes time - just simply click and done.
Based on the well proven switching strip ENT-20 Bircher Reglomat AG offers this
very interesting solution.
Similarly interesting are the features of the new miniature safety edge system S-Line. Easiest self assembling and small dimensions are the strength of this new product. Just a few steps are required to assemble a safety edge. With simple tools this can be done by installers or door manufacturers themselves. Suitable rubber profiles, switching units, end pieces, tools and other accessories make it a complete system.
Introducing a new type of PLC. It's a unique panel mount all-in-one PLC. This FP-e is the same size as a standard digital timer but with all the functionalities of an advanced PLC. UL, CSA, UL, IP66.
Great for small OEM machines.
The FP-e PLC comes in the following three types.
Basic type - 8in. / 5 Tr. & 1 Relay out
Calendar timer type - 8in. / 5 Tr. & 1 Relay out
Thermocouple input type - 6in. / 2Ch. Thermocouple / 5 Tr. & 1 Relay out
The FP-e is perfect for small desk top machines, lab use, test machines or distributed control on a production line where a small amount of I/O and a numerical display is required.
What are the best
kinds of applications for the FP-e?
...when you need timers
and counters
The FP-e has up to 144
built-in timers and counters that you can program. This is in addition to four
high speed counters and 8 inputs that can be used in many ways. With this PLC,
you can also scale your readings by using powerful math functions such as square
root or square cube. Should your program become more complex and require
expanded I/O, this can automatically be converted to an FP0 or FP Sigma PLC.
...when you need
temperature control
For
temperature control applications that also require controlling some I/O, the
FP-e is a perfect solution. This PLC has two very accurate PID loops for
temperature control (-30.0 to + 300.0 degree C).
Just wire your thermocouple devices (K type), use Auto Tuning to control the
temperature, and program your I/O control.
This one package does it all. Temperature can be displayed and controlled
either in Fahrenheit or Celsius with 0.1 degree resolution. Even though the
FP-e is small, it produces superb PID results by utilizing our powerful
floating point math and unique algorithm.
...when you require
simple stepper motion for test equipment
The FP-e has built-in 2 axis
pulse outputs with automatic acceleration and deceleration. Only the data below
is required.
Control code (Incremental, Absolute, Homing)
Start speed (Hz)
Top speed (Hz)
Acceleration time (ms)
Travel distance (pulse)
This is how simple it is to setup a motion control. The FP-e also has step ladder which acts like a flow chart. This step ladder can make your program very simple. Another feature of the FP-e is that it can be used as a pulse generator where the frequency can manually be changed while monitoring the digital display.
Mead Fluid Dynamics has released an innovative new valve that will change the market place. Through its patented "half-shell" design, Mead's MOD3 series minimizes size and turbulence resulting in much better flow over its competitors!
Emergency Stop Vacuum Generator
Features
• Emergency Stop Operating System
(Patented) with Air Economizing Mode
• Eliminates All Unnecessary Air Consumption
• Optional DeviceNet™ Communication
• Fast Sensor and Vacuum Flow Response Times
• Large Vacuum Flow Rates
• Independent Vacuum Channels
The CVX0260B is ideal for non-porous applications that can benefit from
Emergency Stop Management Systems and air-economizing features. The
Emergency Stop Management System can maintain the last state of air during
Emergency Stop or
power failure. During one of these events, the vacuum command signal is
lost, but, the system can detect the presence of a part and continue to
maintain the vacuum state. Additionally, if the system detects that a part
is not present, the vacuum state will not continue and will close to
eliminate any unnecessary air consumption. Air economizing features are
controlled by the sensor
outputs to minimize air consumption during normal operations. PLC
programming is not required for Air Economizing Functions because this
function is included in the electrical enclosure. Optional DeviceNet
communications are available.
Vacuum Controlled
Emergency Stop Circuit:
There are 4 separate states of air logic: vacuum, blow-off, idle, and EOS.
The air circuit illustrates a basic normally closed unit with the Emergency
Stop operating system. Vacuum is created when a high signal is sent to
Vacuum Pilot Valve (1). The output of the vacuum Sensor (2), controls the
vacuum level and air economizing function by feedback to the Vacuum Solenoid
Valve (1). The Check Valve (3) maintains the vacuum level until the Blow-off
Pilot Valve (4) is activated to release or the hysteresis value of Sensor
(2) is reached to restore the original vacuum level. The Emergency Stop
operating system (5) is activated by an emergency stop or power failure.
Mini Cylinders can meet your requirements for clamping, gripping, stopping, pressing, etc., in applications where space is a premium. Mini cylinders have a hose barb fitting installed in the rod end of the cylinder, standard female rod thread and two through holes for ease of mounting, no brackets required.

VACUUM CONTROL VALVES
SOLENOID VALVE
VA01 Series valve is used in centralized vacuum systems. Available for:
vacuum control, blow-off control, or one valve for both. 10mm wide solenoid
valve is lightweight, compact, and direct acting.
FLOW SENSING VALVE
FSV Series valve assists in maintaining an acceptable vacuum level in the
vacuum system if vacuum cup does not make a proper seal. This can be critical to
the performance of the vacuum systems that have a single source vacuum generator
with multiple cups. Direct mounting to cups using M5 to G3/8 connection.
CHECK VALVE
CH Series valve is used to hold a degree of vacuum when the vacuum
generator is turned off. This poppet design valve has low leakage rate and
cracking pressure of 2.9 PSIG.
