Aaxeon Releases New IP67 Rated Ruggedized Industrial Ethernet Switch

Aaxeon Technologies is proud to announce the release of our newest line of IP67 rated Industrial Managed Ethernet Switches. Each of the IP67 switches is available in an extended operating temperature model that can withstand temperatures of -40°C to 75°C. The units are EN50155 compliant and Class 1, Division 2 rated which makes them suitable for railway applications as well as hazardous location environments, respectively.

There are three models in Aaxeon’s new product range. The LNX-800N-67-T has 8 x 10/100TX ports, while the LNX-1002Nx-67-T (x: M- Multi-mode, S- Single mode) has 8 x 10/100TX and 2 x 100FX ports. The models are designed with circular M12 connectors for Fast Ethernet interface, and provide rugged construction which complies with IP67 standards, therefore, making the equipment ideal for damp, dusty, and other harsh industrial environments.

The IP-67 Managed Industrial Switch Models boast a backup power solution with dual power inputs and management features that include VLANs, IGMP Snooping, IPv6 support, Port Trunking with LACP, LLDP, SSH, SSL, and route redundancy through RSTP or from Aaxeon’s proprietary ring. The Switches reduce installation costs, ensure real time operation, increase network reliability, and are compact enough to be mounted anywhere, making them suitable for space-constrained environments and an ideal choice for many industrial applications.

Features:
  • Back-Plane (Switching Fabric): 2 Gbps
  • Supports Ethernet Ring Redundancy Function
  • Recovery Time <10ms
  • IPv6 Management
  • Wide-Range Redundant Power Design
  • TFTP Firmware Update & System Configuration Restoration/Backup
  • EN50155 Compliant

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.
