Utilising A and B output voltage channels plus a periodic index with the corresponding inverted channels, these encoders are designed to achieve high accuracy in a broad range of linear motion applications. The T8.LI20 and T8.LI50 linear encoders are available with either a push-pull output or an RS422 interface and provide a voltage range from 4.8 to 30 VDC.
Submersible pressure transmitters
10 November, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has introduced the PT4500 and PT4510 submersible pressure transmitters, optimised for detecting the level of water or other media with similar density in challenging industrial environments - including in wastewater and irrigation systems, as well as tanks containing liquids such as gas and diesel.
Zener diode barriers
10 November, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has introduced MZB series Zener diode barriers, designed to effectively limit excess energy before it reaches a hazardous area. The MZB barriers provide removable terminals within an efficient and space-saving design - with channels as small as 6.3 mm wide - to consume minimal panel space. Additionally, the MZB series features a bussed power feed and offers both relay and solid-state switch models.
Optical encoders
26 October, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has released the Kübler F36 optical encoder series, designed completely without gears to eliminate wear and sensitivity to magnetic fields. F36 absolute encoders feature a compact size of 36 mm with a hollow shaft diameter of up to 10 mm, making them suitable for drive engineering and medical applications.
Compact proximity sensor
26 October, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
The uprox Q10S proximity sensor is a compact 10 x 10 x 28 mm sensor that can achieve sensing distances of up to 5 mm, depending on mounting configuration.
Extended range proximity sensor
29 September, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has announced that the company’s Q08 uprox+ factor 1 sensor - designed to detect steel, stainless steel, copper, brass and aluminium at the same rated sensing distance - now offers an extended range of 8 mm.
Turck stainless steel inductive sensors
29 September, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has announced a line of 2- and 3-wire DC ArmorGuard+ stainless steel, front face, inductive sensors. The line includes 8, 12, 18 and 30 mm barrel diameters with 1.5 to 10 mm achievable sensing distances.
Interface modules with FDT/DTM
21 September, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
To simplify device set-up and installation time, Turck’s interface module (IM) family may now be programmed via a PC or onboard push-buttons using FDT/DTM software, along with PACTware.
Power connectors
21 September, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has announced the A-Size 3- and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast connectors, providing up to 600 V and 15 A of power in a time-saving, modular wiring design. These IP67-rated connectors are manufactured to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while delivering resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications.
