Fieldbus Modules Available

Available as an expansion for the configurable safety relays PNOZmulti Mini.

Modular, expandable base units PNOZ mm0.1p and PNOZ mm0.2p have now been enhanced. New fieldbus modules are also now available alongside the communication and safe link modules. As a result, the base units can be expanded on the left-hand side and can be connected to the fieldbus systems DeviceNet, PROFIBUS-DP and CANopen. Other fieldbus modules are in preparation.

Another new feature is the ability to use either the communication module PNOZ mmc1p ETH or PNOZ mmc2p serially in parallel with a fieldbus module. You can configure the fieldbus inputs and outputs along with the fieldbus modules in the software tool PNOZmulti Configurator . The fieldbus modules are used to read the diagnostic data and to set virtual inputs/outputs for standard functions.

Your benefits at a glance
  • User-friendly diagnostic and control information guarantees short downtimes and high plant availability
  • Two-way signalling and control via fieldbus modules
  • Simple and economical to expand by selecting compatible modules
  • Diagnostic concept PVIS can be activated via a single click in the PNOZmulti Configurator, individual customer texts are child's play to integrate
  • Connect the operator terminals PMI for an overall, integrated diagnostic solution

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.
