ABB has launched its first robot combining the advantages of an articulated robot and a linear gantry for improved flexibility and cycle times.
ZigBee wireless sensor nodes
10 November, 2009 | Zigsense
The ZigSense line of wireless sensors utilises ZigBee mesh network technology as its core communications channel. Australian designed and made, ZigSense wireless nodes establish a self-healing network of spatially distributed sensors that cooperatively monitor physical and environmental conditions. Data can be transferred to standard SCADA, telemetry, PLC and HMI stations via a ZigSense communications gateway.
LEO 3 digital manometer
10 November, 2009 | Bestech Australia Pty Ltd
The LEO 3 digital manometer, from Keller, is a microprocessor-based transmitter with digital double display for pressure (top display) and for the output signal (bottom display). The display is powered from the 4-20 mA current loop.
Interworld ACS-2663/2664 embedded PC controllers
10 November, 2009 | Interworld Electronics and Computer Industries
Interworld has added the ACS-2663 and ASC-2664 to its range of embedded PC controllers. The ACS-2663/2664 are designed to meets the demand for low power consumption standalone and blind node control PCs.
L5660-2R ultrasonic level transmitter
10 November, 2009 | OneTemp Pty Ltd
The SmartSonic-2TM model L5660-2R is a microprocessor-based ultrasonic 2-wire transmitter for the measurement of level, volume and/or flow in liquids and solids.
Rotating connectors
02 November, 2009 | TME Systems
Mercotac rotating connectors use a design principle unlike the sliding, brush contact of a slip ring. The connection is made through a pool of liquid metal molecularly bonded to the contact, which provides a low-resistance, stable connection.
Vane-operated flow switch
02 November, 2009 | Dwyer Omega (Aust) Pty Ltd
The Series V4 Flotect flow switch is said to provide field-adjustable, dependable protection against flow variation or stopping in pipelines, for fluids, gases and flowing solids.
In-situ self-verifying dissolved oxygen meter
02 November, 2009 | Bintech Systems Pty Ltd
Represented in Australia by Bintech Products, the UK-based instrumentation company Pi has claimed to have launched the world’s first in-situ self-checking dissolved oxygen meter.
pH/ORP monitor
26 October, 2009 | Amalgamated Instrument Co
The TP4-PH monitor accepts two channels of pH/ORP input as well as a temperature input. Each channel can be individually configured to accept a pH electrode, an ORP electrode or a 4-20 mA analog input. This makes the TP4-PH suitable for those applications where multiple inputs need to be monitored and control applied.
Profile scanners
26 October, 2009 | Bestech Australia Pty Ltd
The profile scanners of the scanControl 2700 and 2710 series from Micro-Epsilon are now also available with a measuring range of 50 mm, adding to the previous measuring ranges of 25 and 100 mm.
SCADA software upgrade
26 October, 2009 | Siemens Ltd
Siemens has expanded its Simatic WinCC/Downtime Monitor and Simatic WinCC/DataMonitor software options for the Simatic WinCC V7 SCADA system.
Linear servomotors
26 October, 2009 | Rockwell Automation Australia
The Allen-Bradley LDC-Series and LDL-Series of linear servomotors are designed to provide machine builders with precise, reliable linear motion capabilities at a cost-effective pricepoint. With no ‘wear items’, such as bearings, gears and belts, that routinely need to be maintained or replaced, theses linear motors are claimed to feature improved reliability over other linear actuation methods.
