pumping speed up to 700l/s
A new line of compact yet
powerful turbopumps, under the name of HiPace,
have a range of pumping
speeds between 10 to 700
liters per second. The
pumps are characterized by
their high cost-effectiveness and their flexibility.
The improved rotor design gives both, high pumping speeds and high gas
throughputs, coupled with very good compression for
light gases.The integrated HiPace drive electronics reduce cabling needs. The use of innovative materials has
doubled the service life of the drives and runup time has
been reduced. Remote and sensor functionalities allow
analysis of pump data. Their aluminum housings make
them extremely light in weight and a sealing gas connection safeguards the bearings against particulate
matter or oxidizing gases. This means that they are highly reliability in both light duty and harsh duty applications. The HiPace turbopumps are also available in corrosive-gas versions.

Servo Controls Growth of the Motion Market
The global market for general purpose motion
controls was estimated to have increased by over
$480 million between 2006 and 2007, reaching
an estimated value of $6,208 million according
to the latest study by IMS Research. Whilst
this growth is considerably less than the 13.4%
experienced in 2006, it still remains significantly higher than that of general industry. This
is mainly due to the rapidly increasing market
for servo products, which currently accounts for
80% of the total motion control market. IMS
Research analyst Rob Carter comments "The
growth of the Asia Pacific market for servo products remains primarily dictated by the growth
of industry, particularly in developing regions
such as China and India. However, the Western
markets of EMEA and Americas are also impacted by the spread of high functionality servo products into mid-range and low-end applications.”
COMAU implements B&R control technology
The Turin-based Fiat subsidiary COMAU Robotics will be using exclusively B&R technology in
the area of automation. For its articulated
arm robots, COMAU will be using series C5G of
the modular servo drive system ACOPOSmulti. The latest industrial PC generation, the
APC810 with Core 2 Duo technology, and the
X20 system will be used to control the system. A Powerlink interface will allow simple
integration of the hardware components into
COMAU's proven CNC logic. "By implementing
B&R's integrated automation solutions, we
are laying the foundation for a technological
partnership that will generate long-term competitive advantages," explains Maurizio Filoni,
Chief Operating Officer of COMAU Robotics.
The key factors in the decision - in addition to
B&R's innovative state-of-the-art products were the benefits of the real-time Ethernet protocol Powerlink and the integrated safety
technology.
Belden reorganises in Europe
Belden has grouped its European subsidiaries:
Venlo/Netherlands, HEW-Kabel, Wipperfürth,
Hirschmann Automation and Control, Neckartenzlingen, and Lumberg Automation, Schalksmühle, in the new Belden EMEA business unit.

Hinge Switches
with 2 safety contacts
The SI-HG63 hinge switches
are used in place of the standard hinges on swinging
guards, gates or doors. They
offer two normally closed
safety contacts and one normally open auxiliary contact
for greater application flexibility. When the SI-HG63
hinge switch is activated,
these normally closed safety
contacts are forced open by a nonresilient mechanical
means (not reliant on springs), interrupting the electrical circuit and sending a stop signal to the machine control. SI-HG63 hinge switches are also repositionable, with
a safety switching point that is easily adjustable (±1.5°)
throughout the hinge’s full 0-270° range of motion. The
hinge switches are built to withstand harsh plant environments, with each safety switch body integrated into a highly robust PBT housing and integrated on to a
stainless steel hinge. They are rated IEC IP67. Each
hinge can support an axial and radial load of 1200N (approximately 120kg).

The portable TMSP 1 sound pressure meter has been designed to
be carried around and used wherever it is needed to carry out
checks quickly and simply, minimising both time and costs. The
ergonomic instrument picks up
environmental noise of between
30 to 130dB through an electret
condenser microphone and then
produces a sound reading in decibels on the handset. The device is
extremely simple to use, featuring
a backlit display for improved visibility in poorly lit environments
and displaying results either digitally or as a bar graph for quick
analysis. Due to its intuitive design, the TMSP 1 can be
used with no special training, once again, reducing
the cost of health and safety processes. Able to take accurate readings at ±1.5dB, the TMSP 1 can record noise
levels either quantitatively or qualitatively depending
on user requirements.

which automatically pools all paralleled power supplies and splits the
load current in such a way that all
power supplies are roughly kept on
the same temperature level. Thus,
thermal overload of a single power
supply in a system is prevented.

The RS232 Battery
Buffer allows you to
save and read out
serial data over the integrated RS232 interface. The device
can work from a
plug-in power supply or self-contained in battery mode. This allows you for
example to transport a CNC program from the design to your
machine. It features non-volatile storage of serial data:
print and plot data, CNC programs, machine data, telephone
fee information etc. Conversion of baud rate, data format and handshake protocol are possible. Battery operation or power comes from plug-in power supply.
This new line of intrinsically safe

for high pin-count devices
saves energy
HD Mezz and SEARAY
connectors provide multiple benefits on personality or expansion
cards for use in networking and telecommunication equipment, mid
and high-range computers, medical equipment, military
products and industrial controllers. HD Mezz provide a
flexible tooling approach that allows for multiple stack
heights, ranging from 16.00mm to 38.00mm, and circuit
sizes of 91 to 403 circuits. SEARAY accommodates lowprofile applications with stack heights of 7.00 to
15.00mm. It also offers solutions using high-speed copper flex assemblies.
The Vacon NXC series low harmonic, regenerative drive uses the active
front-end technology offering significant cost savings by allowing
better use of supply transformers and
power cabling due to the lower
harmonic currents in the input current. In applications with a frequent
braking need, such as winches,
cranes, conveyors and sugar centrifuges, the regenerative function
allows the drive to feed energy
back to the mains. The Vacon NXC
is now available in motor powers of
more than 3MW.

with advanced triple-output driver
The FreeLINE 8645
is a completely decentralised process
automation solution with a higher
type of protection
IP65/IP67, offering the freedoms
of distributed I/O
systems without
the complexity of installation in control cabinets. The
system integrates fieldbus, I/O and pilot valves for use
in process environments, and allows for both pneumatic and electrical modules to be arranged in any sequence required. This flexible configuration means
that, in addition to employing the valve unit as a central station, it is possible to use decentralised single modules and/or to combine one central station with decentralised units. Importantly for ease of installation,
FreeLlNE can be controlled as a multi-pin system or
operated as a fieldbus system. All conventional fieldbus
protocols can be used and Profibus, CANopen or DeviceNet, and Ethernet is currently in preparation.
The T3, is a highly innovative turbo-machinery
tip-timing eddy current
probe combined with
an advanced triple-output driver. It provides
highly reliable information on blade health,
and is of particular benefit to those manufacturing or maintaining gas turbines,
helicopters and aero engines. The T3 driver unit has an
anodized aluminium enclosure, weighs 0.2kg and measures 62.5 x 29.5 x 78.8mm. It produces a 5V trigger and
generates three outputs: processed blade tip pulse arrival time, scaled blade tip clearance and raw eddy
current analogue signal. The standard eddy current
probe is 12mm in diameter with a mounting flange diameter of 25mm. The overall height of the probe is
16.5mm of which the mounting flange occupies 8mm.
The probe comes fitted with a 10m cable as standard,
which can be either armoured or non-armoured. Other probe dimensions and cable lengths are available on
request.

to a new type of lubricant,
which also minimizes the
bearing’s starting torque
even at low operating temperatures. The lubricant
has a long service life over
a wide temperature range
– from -50 to 150°C. They
feature a pair of newly
developed double-lipped
labyrinth seals, which provide better protection from
contamination and improve grease retention. The bearings’ raceways have an enhanced surface finish, and the
high-grade balls ensure smooth running and reduced
noise. The range of single-row deep groove ball bearings is available from stock in the size ranges 6000 to
6012, 6200 to 6212, and 6300 to 6310, with bore diameters from 10mm to 60mm or 50mm, in open version,
2RS2 version (sealed with two synthetic rubber seals) and
2Z version (sealed with two steel shields) and with
clearances CN (standard) and C3.
Dependant upon application, EJ series RFI filter connectors are supplied for snap-in (EJS
version) or screw mounting (EEJ version) and include improvements that
result in higher attenuation and also improved
HF-shielding due to the
extended metal flanges around the sockets. The EJ series connectors’ compact dimensions, simple mounting
and various connection options, make the devices suitable for a wide range of electrical and electronic applications, where connection to the electricity mains is made
using an IEC connector, e.g., TV, audio and video devices,
computers, fitness equipment, household appliances, as
well as slot machines. EJ series devices are equipped with
an IEC 320/C14 connector for currents of 1-15A (VDE 10A)
and, for higher current levels of up to 20A (VDE 16A),
with an IEC 320/C20 connector. All versions of the EJ series of RFI filter connector packages are UL and VDE approved and also RoHS compliant.

Turbidity Monitor
Compact IR Thermometer
for reliable measurements
needs no air or water cooling
The A15/76 Turbidity Monitor
is capable of achieving reliable
low-range measurements of turbidity levels in both drinking
water and industrial water treatment applications. In clean water applications, the unique sensor flowcell eliminates sample degassing for precise and reliable
results. In dirty water applications,
the Auto-Clean system allows
reliable accurate measurement without the need for constant cleaning. The A15/76 is capable of achieving precise measurements between 0.001 NTU and 4000 NTU
within a single system. A planer sensor is used with the
light source and photo detector mounted on a flat
face. The signal generated by the detector is amplified
inside the sensor for transmission to the display unit. Periodic pulsing of the light source allows the sensor zero to be adjusted automatically for improved stability
in low-range applications. Dual beam technology compensates for any sensor fouling or long term degradation of the light source or detector.
The IRtec Rayomatic 14 Mk2
with its micro sensor head
can measure up to 1000°C
with environmental temperature of 180°C without the
need of air or water cooling.
The remote control display,
which uses an IP65 metal case
with tilting panel and snap-in
fixing, can be installed up to
15 meter far. The LCD display is large with multi colours
backlight for high visibility alarms. Setup is operated with
four buttons keyboard and parameters selection through
menu (password protection included). The built-in digital signal processor allows adjustable emissivity, response time and peak picker. The output signals can be
configured as mV, V, 4-20mA, Tc J/K or dual isolated relays. A digital interface board can be installed as USB,
RS232, RS485/Network and Profibus using windows
graphics software. The Black Box module can record events
with real time clock. Optics is up to 95:1 with built-in
dual laser pointer with TTS (True Target Size). Laser can
be driven by keyboard or remote with digital interface.

CP-POCKET
OM6062
Designed for operation in standard applications, the CP-POCKET is
a cost effective solution for 3U CompactPCI applications. With an
integrated CPU (CP307-V, CP306-V or CP303-V) and a wide range
of I/O boards, CP-POCKET provides outstanding potential for system expansion.
The OM6062 is a cost optimized AMC platform dedicated (but not limited)
for industrial automation and medical applications. It supports any standard compliant AMCs, but in comparison to conventional MicroTCA platforms, the OM6062 achieves significant cost improvements through a simplified design. Among the simplifications are: the mechanical concept (no
redundancy, cube design facilitates cooling), pluggable Power Supply Units
instead of MicroTCA Power Modules, Power Management and Fan Control
on the backplane.
CP-POCKET is available in both an AC and a
DC standard version. Each with a 75 Watt power supply and a 4-slot CompactPCI backplane.
The power supply provides the 5.0 Volt and
3.3 Volt for the CPCI boards inside the system.
Together with the CP306-V, a fan with a
long lifespan is integrated in the 4U CPPOCKET version.
For applications that demand higher performance, the CP-POCKET integrates the
CP307-V with a 1.86GHz processor.
Applications that have need for a different
3U CompactPCI configuration, the CP-ASM4POCKET is also available as an open platform.
• Slim design with 28HP / 4U / 210mm
• Efficient off the shelf components
• Integrated CP307-V, CP306-V or CP303-V
• 20 ... 60 VDC or 100 ... 260 VAC input Voltage
To round off the offerings of a CompactPCI Platform, Kontron offers a complete portfolio of plug in boards such as industrial I/O, Ethernet, fieldbus and graphic controllers.
The Double-width form factor provides more PCB
space and front panel space for a complete SBC (single board computer) including graphics and HDD
on a single AMC. If Ethernet switching is not needed, the OM6062 operates without an MCH. This is
possible due to the essential functions which are available on the backplane and processor AMC (management, PCIe clocks, 4 x1 PCIe lanes from Processor AMC
to 4 AMC slots). In a single processor configuration,
the AM5010 can connect to up to 4 peripheral
cards. The AMC bays are fully compliant with the AMC
standards and the MicroTCA standard, therefore any
standard compliant AMC may be used. The OM6062
supports mid-size AMCs with single-width and double-width form factor. For single-width modules, mechanical adapters for double-width slots are available. All AMCs are hot swappable. The OM6062 ships fully configured and tested, including an operating
system installed (Windows, Linux Red Hat or WindRiver, VxWorks).

Halogen-free Cables
Pressure Gauge
Temperature Recording Module
for demanding applications
with electrical output signal
with 14 measuring channels
The halogen-free DeviceBus cables are steel
wire armoured for use
in public areas and/or
demanding industrial
applications. When
compared to products
containing halogens
(such as PVC), these
halogen-free cables offer considerable safety advantages. In the event of a fire,
including minimal release of toxic gases, reduced impairment of vision, no release of highly caustic acids - in short,
significantly improved safety for man, nature and materials. For harsh industrial environments where mechanical protection for cables is critical, the SWA (Steel
Wire Armoured) versions feature an inner jacket which
matches the dimensions of the un-armoured types.
The physical dimensions of these cables match those of
standard PVC products, thus eliminating the need for
special connectivity or cable-glands. The single galvanized steel wires of the armour are applied in a tension
free process and are in accordance with EN 50288-1.
The INTELLiGauge is
a cost-effective and
reliable solution.
From only one measuring point they offer on-site measurement without the
need for an external power supply, also meaning the operator even knows
the process value after a power failure. At the same time, the information
transmitted, via an electrical signal from a transmitter
or a pressure switch, can be, for example, displayed on
a control panel or processed through a PLC. The hybrid
instruments are available with all established electrical
signals. The non-contact sensors are wear-free and
without backlash. These gauges guarantee extremely
high reliability. The design enables the entire mechanical product programme to be used. Thus the new
combi-pressure gauges will, in the future, be available
in all nominal sizes (up to 160).
The compact temperature
recording module TI214
provides 14 measuring
channels. Each channel can
be individually configured
for Pt100 or Pt1000 sensors
and type J and K thermocouples. In the case of short
connection lines, the platinum sensors with proven
two-conductor technology
are attached. For higher
precision or greater cable
lengths, three-conductor
measurement can be used.
Thanks to an averaged
presentation of the measuring results, the measurements
are less susceptible to interference. The high 14 bits resolution permits precise further processing of the recorded temperature values. All the customary process and
ambient temperatures are covered with the wide measuring range (Pt100/Pt1000: from -100 to 800°C, thermocouples: from -20 to 1,000°C).

The FLIR P660 is supplied with a 640 x 480
uncooled detector
with a sensitivity better than 45mK. Yet
the resultant, highly
detailed images can
be enhanced further
by the new contrast
optimiser. This special
algorithm enables the
user to view with utmost clarity both the scanned object and its surroundings. Particularly useful in low
contrast surroundings, this feature enables detail normally lost in the background to be seen more clearly.
The most significant feature of the the P660 is integral

Stepper Motor Controller
for applications requiring extreme precision
The TMC454 is optimized for the control
of stepper motors in
applications that require extreme precision. Stepper motors
are often selected as
reliable low-cost drive
elements. Stepper motors provide high
torque even at low
speed. This simplifies the mechanical design for many
applications and saves cost if a gear is not necessary due
to the high torque at low speed. This model is designed as a peripheral component, which is parameterized by a microcontroller via 8-bit bus or I2C like bus.
Thus the motion control is performed precisely in the
dedicated high-speed hardware. Stepper motor power stages can be driven via stepper-/direction interface
and external low-cost DACs. The device comes in a
RoHS compliant 144 pin BGA package of size 12x12mm.
The ball grid pitch of 1mm gives good process ability even
on older manufacturing units.

Power Solid-State Relays
Teflon Hoses
high peak load rating
in three different models
These Power Solid-State
Relays (PSSR) are available
as single- and three-phase
versions. In comparison
with contactors and standard relays PSSRs switch
without any wear and are
totally silent. The modules
have a high peak load rating and as such have sufficient reserves to trip line-side
fuses. They can easily cope with capacitive and inductive current spikes. With integrated zero-voltage switching, single-phase PSSRs are eminently suitable for
switching resistive loads up to 20A in 55°C heat. Threephase PSSRs are designed with instantaneous switching
functionality and are suitable for use in motor controls
deployed in mechanical and systems engineering applications. Both PSSR 1PH and PSSR 3PH versions are
ready-to-use; meaning users simply snap them onto
the mounting rail and connect them. The components
are designed to be utilised in industrial, process automation and power generation applications requiring protection class ratings IP20 and IP67.
This range is made
from polytetrafluoretheylene (PTFE) and
is available in three
different models. The
Smoothflex, smooth
bore, non convoluted model is made from ultra hygienic material with a stainless steel helix to offer maximum
flexibility. This hose boasts good vacuum and kink resistance and performs well in extreme conditions. The
Easycrimp hose is a low profile, helically convoluted model. This means that instead of rings, there is a helix inside the pipe which makes for easy cleaning as the
product simply flows out. It is designed specially for tail
fittings and assembly without de-convoluting the inner
liner. The Coreflex is a helically convoluted model with
external vacuum wire. Ideal for high vacuum hose applications this suction/ pressure hose has excellent mechanical strength and kink resistance. Teflon PTFE is impervious to almost all known chemicals and is UV resistant. Combined with a temperature range of -60 to
260°C and sizes ranging from 3-150mm, this product is
unique and problem solving.

Printed Circuit Board
Axial Piston Pump
reduces wiring times of 19" racks
lower noise level and higher efficiency
A newly designed
printed circuit
board for the E-TA 19BGT 19" rack
offers a cost-effective approach for
applications in factory automation,
the chemical and pharmaceutical industries and telecommunications, by reducing wiring times. Designed for an
array of single-pole or double-pole circuit breakers
with a maximum of 30 poles in total it allows for wiring
of up to 30 channels using single-pole circuit breakers,
up to 15 channels with double-pole circuit breakers, or
twice 15 channels of single-pole when used redundantly with two separate circuits. The new PCBs, with
integral terminal blocks, offer fast and professional
connection in control cabinets. The terminal blocks
are soldered on to the front of the PCB: on the rear side
the PCB features integral terminals. Wiring of the rack
is compact and fast, minimising the risk of wiring errors.
An integral pull relief ensures resistance of against
mechanical strain under harsh everyday conditions.
Increased efficiency, lower noise generation and
improved controllers are
the main features of 32
Series of the A10VSO
variable axial piston
pumps. Designed for
use in the upper medium-duty range, these variable displacement pumps
are suitable for use in harsh working environments. Available in nominal sizes 71,100 and 140 (with sizes 28,45
and 180 to follow) and with a nominal maximum pressure of 280bar and 350bar peak pressure, the optimised drive of the pump permits higher rotational
speeds and, at the same time. Improvements in the housing design have helped to reduce noise levels by up to
3dB. Greater resistance to suction-pressure dips and housing-pressure peaks is also achieved. Another feature standard on this pump is the universal through drive allowing flexible connection of a range of other pumps using a corresponding flange kit. The series also offers a
large selection of controllers and adjustments that increase flexibility further.

Pressure Regulators
Geared Motors
offer extended pressure range
modular design
The PRHM thermoplastic pressure
regulator is capable of converting inlet pressures up to 150psi to a predetermined maximum downstream pressure ranging from 5 to 125psi settings. The rolling diaphragm seal isolates the spring chamber from the
downstream pressure sensing liquid and
assures sensitive, smooth, accurate
performance. Other important features
include all-molded body construction, which eliminates internal leakage that could cause a malfunction, and
a heavy-duty shaft seat to withstand pressure surges. These
regulators are available in 1/2, 3/4 and 1" pipe size.
The F2 range of geared motors is available in eleven
sizes up to 110kW capacity
and combines high performance characteristics and instant availability. Wider gear
teeth and heavier and harder-wearing bearings combine to produce a 20% improvement in output from a given footprint. The dry fit
capability means that motors can be easily removed and
replaced without exposing the gearbox. The modular
approach means that 600 elements can be combined into ten million assembly permutations in terms of capacity, configuration and application suitability.

The award was handed over during the
Hannover Fair 2008. We have chosen Nueronics as a winner, because of
the unique features presented by the
Katana robotic arm that closely replicates human physical behaviour. This
robot learns and corrects itself autonomously thanks to its neural network and achieves a high degree of
precision without requiring extensive programming. Our decision was
backed up by the large amount of interest the product has received from
the readers of IEN Europe.

Janine Deufel from Neuronics commented: “It was a great pleasure for
me and my colleagues to receive the
IEN Europe Award at the Hannover Fair.
It's an honour for us to gain such
kind of award and we were glad that
our product aroused huge interest

Programmable Preheater
Ultra-fast Framing Camera
lowers soldering temperatures
easy to use and maintain
The PCT-1000 Programmable Preheater
equips users with the
ability to deliver more
heat to difficult
boards while maintaining very high levels of thermal control and lower operating temperatures. Suitable for high thermal demand
applications such as lead-free, multi-layer boards and
large ground planes, the PCT-1000 has been developed to improve process efficiency and control. The benchtop system delivers forced convection heat that can be
controlled with four time and temperature zones and
an additional cooling zone. The PCT-1000 also provides a thermal boost for boards that demand heat due
to large ground planes, multiple layers or lead-free
solders. This added heat capacity offers an additional
benefit of allowing operators to use soldering, desoldering and SMT rework hand tools with lower operating temperatures, avoiding the undesirable and often
damaging, high temperatures.
The SIM-D Ultra Fast Framing
camera is a new compact system combining ease of use,
ease of maintenance and
high performance. A novel optical periscope for focus adjustment enables rapid and
simple experimental setup and optimisation. Comprehensive triggering facilities, highly accurate timing control,
and a range of output signals, coupled with a software
package including full measurement and image enhancement functions simplifies image capture. Remote
operation using Ethernet connectivity is standard enabling
the SIM-D to be easily integrated into almost any environment. The SIM-D provides up to 16 separate optical
channels without compromising performance or image
quality. Parallax and shading, are eliminated and the high
spatial resolution (> 36lp/mm) is identical from frame to
frame in both axes. Individual ultra-high resolution intensified CCD detectors, offer almost infinite control
over gain and exposure allowing researchers total freedom to capture images of even the most difficult transient phenomena.

Robotic Testing System
Static Monitor
modular design
also for 50/60Hz alternating signals
The roboTest F robotic testing system is designed for flexible specimens, such as films,
textiles and fleece materials,
but even metals and wires can
be tested using the corresponding grips and tooling. The
system allows testing to be
carried out overnight and at
weekends thereby reducing
the need for shift working.
In addition it is possible to
carry out testing using unsupervised or relatively unskilled
operators. Robotic testing systems simplify the processes required for quality management systems such as ISO
9001 because the testing sequence is pre-programmed,
and not subject to human error. Results and long term
statistics are also available in real-time helping to minimise communication inefficiencies between different
production processes. The testing systems were developed with a modular design concept which allows
testing sequences to be changed or adapted to customer
specific requirements.
The JCI 140 Static Monitor features the capability to monitor 50/60Hz
alternating electric field
signals as well as traditional quasi-continuous
fields. This enables the
level of mains frequency
electric fields to be measured in sensitive work areas. It is also relevant for assessing the electric fields that may arise from equipment and
near high voltage power lines. The frequency response
of the standard JCI 140 has been increased to -3dB at
over 100Hz. This is sufficient for good quality measurement of 50/60Hz signals via the instrument analogue
output. Instrument sensitivity enables the voltages on
surfaces to be measured to a Volt at 100mm (4”). Noise
is now equivalent to less than 1V r.m.s. of surface voltage. Prospective applications include monitoring the alternating electric fields that may arise from poorly
shielded air ionisation equipment, outdoor electric
fields and the uniformity of charge neutralisation on
fast moving webs of plastic films.

fast switching auto darkening
for fibre optic cables
The new 2400ADF
auto darkening filter (ADF) with a
90mm x 110mm
window is suitable
for MIG, MMA and
TIG welding down
to 10A. This new CE
marked EN379 approved filter has a
fast switching speed
and will fit most branded welding helmets. With 3
arc sensors (two at the top and one at the bottom) it
will catch the welding arc even in the most confined
and restricted places. The welder is able to adjust the
darkness shade between shades 9-13 and using the seamlessly adjustable sensitivity. The delay time can be adjusted between 0.1 – 1.0 second. When the arc is
struck, the filter takes 0.4 milliseconds to switch from
clear shade 4 to dark providing all-round flexibility ensuring eye safety for a wide range of luminescent arc
applications. The operating temperature range betweens -5 and 55°C.
The handheld FiberMaster
fibre optic tester incorporates
a power meter and light
source. The power meter
enables users to measure
multi-mode and single mode
signals at the 850, 1300/1310,
1490 and 1550nm wavelengths. By connecting the
power meter to the output
of a network device, the direct power can be instantly
measured to isolate a faulty
transmitter. The device incorporates an automatic dB calibration function that enables the user to store a reference value and then directly read the loss of the link without having to manually calculate the values. It has a universal 2.5mm
adapter for the power meter and ST, SC and FC connectors for the light source. Measurements are displayed
in dBm (decibel milliwatt) and mW (milliwatt). Measurement range is from –60 to +3dBm. Operating temperature is from –10 up to 60°C.

Level Indicator
Triple Vane Hydraulic Pump
with new oscillator technique
unique power to weight ratio
The FSA level indicator,
thanks to a completely
new oscillator technique
which automatically compensates for the container wall, opens up new
fields of application with
simplified handling. The
indicator reliably detects all
liquids having dipolar properties, such as aqueous media. The non-conducting
container wall is automatically compensated for, so
that condensation effects on the container interior
and exterior wall do not affect the reliability of the measurement. Build-up, contamination and liquid films or foam
are also reliably masked. The result is the first truly precise capacitive level sensor. In contrast to conventional sensors, the level detector does not have to be readjusted either in-process or when replacing the medium.
This represents a considerable time savings and helps
to prevent errors. The usual regular cleaning of the sensor and container becomes almost superfluous, so that
the new sensor pays for itself in an extremely short time.
Designed to offer high
performance and long,
low maintenance service life, the new T7EEC
pump is particularly
suitable for use in applications where space
is limited. It offers pressure ratings of up to
275bar and total displacement of up to 554ml/rev. The
low-noise pumps incorporate a single-piece shaft, enabling them to transmit internally cumulative torque without any restrictions for maximum operational efficiency. The new triple pumps feature a single suction port,
allowing fast and simple connection to external piping.
Positioning of both suction pipe and pressure ports, with
90° intervals make installation simple where space is limited. The broad selection of displacements allows for up
to 1,200 possible configurations. It can accommodate
a wide range of hydraulic oil viscosities, permitting
colder starts and hotter running. Crucial areas such as
the gap between rotor and side plates remains fully lubricated at all times.

Motion Controller
Vertical Machining Center
with Ethernet port
updated design for harmilling 50+ HRc
The Euro209 is a flexible high
performance motion and machine control solution for
OEMs, machine builders and
automation system integrators
that combines up to nine selectable axes of precision stepper or servo control with digital and analogue I/O, communications interfacing and axis expansion in a compact single Eurocard rack-mount format. Up to 8 axes of stepper
control are realised on a single printed circuit board that provides 2MHz stepper outputs and 6MHz encoder inputs via a 96-way rear
DIN41612 connector. Optional feature enable codes
are used to enable from 2 to 8 stepper axes and encoder
inputs. For servo motor control, feature enable codes
are used in conjunction with optional 4 or 8-axis DAC
boards for +/-10V control with precise 16-bit resolution.
A further single stepper or servo axis daughter board
may be included bringing the total axis count to 9.
The V33i, is a hardmilling
vertical machining center
updated with the latest
technological advancements and refinements to
provide even tighter accuracy, sustained dynamic
performance, superior surface finishes, and long
hours of continuous, unattended operation. It is well suited for working materials at 50+ HRc. Refinements to the spindle have increased stiffness and rigidity, reducing the potential for
tool chatter. Improved design has reduced potential machine movement and associated thermal growth that
could cause inaccuracies during the cutting of long
die and mold programs. The machine’s worktable is
750x450mm with associated travels of 650mm (X) x
450mm (Y) x 350mm (Z). The workzone will accommodate a maximum workpiece size of 750x595x250mm. The
V33i is equipped with the latest version of the SGI.4 control software that improves feed-rates, accuracy, and reduces part cycle times by 40%.

Laser Sensor
Temperature Controller
with real time control
with data logging, USB
The LDS 85 sensor series makes it possible
to carry out precision
distance measurements on different
surfaces. Bright metals, black rubber or
even shiny varnished
surfaces are no problem.
Measuring
ranges of 2 - 750mm
with resolutions from
0.1µm – 50µm are available. All the functions are integrated in the sensor casing (80 x 75 x 30 mmΔ) and can
be configured with a PC software program and also per
teach-in on the sensor. 0–10VDC, 4–20mA, RS422 and USB
output ports are always available. Two digital output
ports for the evaluation of limits can be used as required
in the measuring range. The measuring repetition rate
can be adjusted from 2.5kHz down to 312Hz. An average determination system and various mathematical filter functions for the purpose of signal conditioning have
also been integrated.
The ProVU temperature controller was
designed to make operation as simple as
possible, with a large
area LCD screen for
displaying graphics
and messages in plain
text, with the option
of automatically
changing the screen
colour for alarm and event conditions. The plain text feature reduces the potential for confusion that is traditionally associated with the mnemonic codes that are
often used. In addition, the controller incorporates a simple set-up wizard, which automatically starts as soon as
the instrument is powered on. The wizard guides users
through the principle set-up and configuration procedures, including the type of inputs, outputs, alarms, set
points and so on; for many mainstream applications this
may be all that is required, enabling fast and simple commissioning. These settings can also be saved to a memory stick via a front panel USB port.

Silicon Dual Photo Diode
Enclosure System
peak sensitivity in the near infrared range
gel-filled, IP68-rated
The PR5001 is a dual
photo diode for the
near infrared range
with minimum footprint. An active area
of two times 0.75
x1.2mm is packaged
in a small clear DFN
package with a size
of only 1.8 x 2.9mm.
With separate cathodes and a common
anode the diode offers a very low dark current in the
range of less than 100pA at reverse voltages of up to
20V. The capacitance of the photo diodes of less than
60pF at 10Volts allows the use for light signals of
higher frequency. The applied ModuS U6 process allows economic production of large sized photo diodes
with a high yield and less impurity traps. Thus a very
uniform sensitivity across both elements can be
achieved, which is important for position detection.
PR5001 has its peak sensitivity in the near infrared range
around 890nm.
The Abox GT range
of extreme environment electrical enclosures uses an extremely durable and easy
to use gel fill system
to protect electrical
connections even after prolonged exposure to water, soil,
sand or grit. The IP68rated enclosure system will even withstand extended
periods of total immersion. Abox GT enclosures are
suitable for any application where electrical connections
must be protected from the wet. Typical uses are in flood
prone areas, washing installations, tunnels, docks and
agricultural or horticultural applications. The gel is a twopart mixture designed for easy mixing and installation in the toughest site conditions. A handy mixer
bag included with every box can be used to prepare and
insert exactly the right amount of gel. Once cured,
the gel filled enclosures are shock and fracture-proof,
UV-resistant and exhibit low flammability.

Million Cycle Couplings
Position Sensors
longer life and greater durability
spring-loaded
Designated the H & HQ
Series, the flat face couplings are engineered for
longer life, greater durability and better flow characteristics. A paramount criterion was to meet the
new life test specified in ISO
16028:1999/Amd.1:2006(E),
which has increased from
a hundred thousand to
one million pressure pulse
cycles. After successfully
completing the one million cycle tests, inspection of the
new couplings indicated they still had plenty of working life left. An additional user benefit is a reduction in
the pressure drop, which has been achieved by using 3D
CAD to optimise the flow path. H Series couplings have
a zinc plated finish and are ideal for general plant applications. HQ Series couplings are finished with a new
'high impact' hardening process, which gives them a silver grey colour. It helps make them more resistant to
Brinelling, wear and corrosion.
This DC-operated position sensor is springloaded and offers a
two-wire, loop powered 4–20mA operation. Built-in loop powered electronics result
in a position sensor
that operates from a
DC input and generates a 4-20mA output that interfaces with many PLCs,
computer-based data processors, and QC data collection
systems. Operating over a wide range of loop supply voltages and with loop resistances up to 800ohms, the
GHSI 750 position sensor is suitable for use in machine
tool inspection, go/no/go inspection, and statistical
quality control info or as part of a closed-loop control
system. Hermetically sealed and constructed entirely of
stainless steel, the coil windings are sealed against
hostile environments to IEC standard IP-68. These position sensors can be installed in hasardous locations while
the wiring connected to power supplies, indicators
and controllers are in a safe environment.

Thermal Mass Flow Meter
Laser Sensors
digital alternative to the VA meter
measure on direct reflecting surfaces
The Mass-View flow meter
series is a no-nonsense, digital alternative to the conventional VA meter (variable area
meter) or rotameter. Employing the latest OLED (organic
light emitting diode) technology, as used in mobile
phones and MP3 players, the
Mass-View flow meter series
incorporates a digital bar
graph of actual gas flow,
which is clearly visible from all
angles, as well as indicating flow units, fluid type and
totalised figures. Also available with an optional in-built
needle valve for flow control duties, it is designed to mimic the straightforward features and vertical format of
the VA meter, but with the considerable added benefits of an electronic output signal, measuring accuracy
as high as ±0.5%, virtual independence from gas temperature and pressure variations, freedom from parallax error and inherently safe construction, with no
fragile glass components in the flow path.
A new high performance
laser sensor is specifically
designed for optical distance measurement with
direct reflecting materials, including highly polished metal, mirrored objects, glass and chromeplated products. The optoNCDT 1700DR has a resolution of 0.1µm at a measuring rate of 2.5kHz (without using an averaging filter). It comes in three measuring ranges: 2mm, 10mm and 20mm. The optoNCDT
1700DR operates using the laser triangulation principle.
A laser diode projects a visible point of light onto the
surface of the target object. The light reflected from this
point is then projected onto a CCD array. If the target
changes position with respect to the sensor, the movement of the reflected light is projected on the CCD array and analysed to output the exact position of the target. The measurements are processed digitally in the integral controller. The data is output via analogue (I/U)
and digital interface RS422 or USB.

Mini Routers
Ultrasonic Generator
increased network security
real 1,000W output
Mini routers with OSPF
functionality (Open
Shortest Path First)
know their way
around the connected
network topology. If
the main connection
to the internet fails,
the router in question
utilises OSPF functionality to automatically establish
an alternative route within the network. OSPF is a dynamic routing protocol within a system that describes
the status of the links between data networks. As a rule,
routers are deployed in two different types of applications: they separate Ethernet networks for reasons of data security or to facilitate even simpler configurations.
And, in addition, they open up access to the Internet.
Routers convey data between the individual networks.
Each device must be configured to meet this requirement.
The administrator specifies which hub is responsible
for which network. When the network increases in size
so does the amount of administration needed, which in
turn increases the likelihood of errors occurring.
The flexible ultrasonic
Primewave generator
has been designed for
each of the two boards
to produce up to
1,000W of power when
running at full power.
They will deliver a real
1,000W output and not
simply a nominal peak
figure. For larger ultrasonic tank systems this
equates to fewer generators being required and real
savings to be made. The generator can operate in a variety of ultrasonic applications, in aqueous, solvent or
viscous liquids, and can be tailored by the operator to
produce the quality of ultrasonic activity required, as dictated by the component complexity or by the substrate. The generator has the ability to control precisely the ramp-up of power delivery so it can deliver a surge
of power to jump start cavitation in viscous liquids or
it can feed in power incrementally to obviate damage
to delicate items such as electronic circuits.

RESISTORS IN THE COLUMBUS SPACE LABORATORY
10,000 CNCS IN EUROPE IN
ONE YEAR
N e x a n s, the worldwide
leader in the cable industry, has installed its
Rheycord Basket Spreader
(BS) 44C 12AWG cable in
the basket spreader of a
ship-to-shore crane at the
SSA Terminals at the Port
of Oakland. It is the first US
installation for the cable,
which is manufactured at
the Nexans factory in
Mönchengladbach, Germany. The Rheycord BS
cable meets the demanding requirements...
The European Columbus
laboratory is now in space,
and precision resistors
from the I s a b e l l e n h ü t t e
SMx series are on board.
It is by no means easy to
fulfil the stringent requirements set by aerospace and space organisations. Components must
function reliably even
when subjected to extreme influences. For example, the SMx series resistors for use in space
can endure...
With over two million installed CNC control systems and more than 50
years' experience in production automation, Fanuc
is the worldwide market
leader in CNC technology.
F a n u c G E is also a force
in Europe: in 2007 alone,
the control specialist supplied over 10,000 CNCs.
The 10,000th went with a
Spinner SB-CNC precision
lathe to bmk Baumann
in Nuremberg, where it is
now in continuous use...

is inevitable in a busy factory environment that
there will be dust and dirt
in the atmosphere. However, this can become a serious production...
