Axiomtek's IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 Compliant 16-port 10/100Base Managed Hardened Ethernet Switch with 2-port Combo Gigabit for Substation Automation- iCON-83000

Axiomtek today introduced iCON-83000 16-port 10/100Base managed hardened Ethernet switch with 2 combo Gigabit ports, which fully complies with IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 standards for substation automation applications, NEMA TS1 & TS2 for traffic control systems and EN50121-4 for railway applications. The iCON-83000 is designed to integrate 10/100 Mbps networks into fiber optic Gigabit backbones. To provide non-stop Ethernet connection, the iCON-83000 supports intelligent α-Ring technology which provides fast network recovery within 15ms. This hardened industrial Ethernet switch features an IP30 protected housing with slim form factor (84 x 125 x 145 mm), a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +75°C), DIN-rail or panel mounting capability, and redundant power inputs to give users greater flexibility for a variety of industrial automation applications.

“Axiomtek has introduced the iCON-83000, an IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 compliant Ethernet switch for substation automation applications. The IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 standards define the highest standard of EMI immunity and error free communication requirements for network equipment used in substations. Meeting these strict certifications proves iCON-83000 can against a variety of environmental factors. Up to sixteen 10/100Base-TX ports and two combo Gigabit ports can be chosen to make the construction of a reliable Ethernet network easy. Additionally, this intelligent item applies high quality components with advantages of wide operating temperature range and long MTBF to keep your industrial applications running non-stop. With Axiomtek’s iCON-83000 Ethernet switch, users can save on cabling and wiring costs and speedily transform existing devices into more powerful and intelligent,” said Ethan Wang, Product Manager of Product & Marketing Division at Axiomtek. It can be DIN-rail or panel mounted. Moreover, the rugged device comes equipped with a 12~48 VDC redundant power inputs via a terminal block or power jack, and is secured with power polarity reverse and an overload current resettable fuse.

The iCON-83000 hardened managed Ethernet switch supports advanced features such as IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, port trunking, IGMP snooping, rapid spanning tree, QoS IEEE802.1p/1Q, and port mirroring. Users may choose among SNMP/RMON, web browser, or telnet for remote monitoring and configuration. It also supports rate control, which allows users to set the maximum bandwidth on each port individually. Otherwise, the iCON-83000 switches offer IEEE802.1X port-based network access control for network security. In addition to RSTP/STP for Ethernet redundancy, the iCON-83000 series features redundant ring technology with a recovery time under 15ms. With Auto MDI/MDIX function supported, users can easily expand network without using special cabling, and the auto-negotiation capability allows users to connect client or other switches without any configuration. Besides, the iCON-83000 comes with full wire-speed forwarding rate.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa...

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin...

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
