OMRON has introduced Digital Temperature Controller E5AC. Large White PV Display That's Easier to Read (96 x 96 mm). Easy to Use, from Model Selection to Setup and Operation. A Complete Range of I/O Capacities, Functions, and Performance. Handles More Applications.

• A white LCD PV display with a height of approx. 25 mm for the E5AC improves visibility.
• Tool ports are provided both on the top panel and the front panel. Set up the Controller without wiring the power supply by connecting to the computer with a Communications Conversion Cable (sold separately).
• Setup is easy with the CX-Thermo (sold separately).
• High-speed sampling at 50 ms.
• Models are available with up to 4 auxiliary outputs, up to 6 event inputs, a transfer output, and a remote SP input to cover a wide range of applications.
• Short body with depth of only 60 mm.
• Easy connections to a PLC with programless communications. Use component communications to link Temperature Controllers to each other.
• The new position-proportional control models allow you to control valves as well

Brooks Instrument continues to innovate its mass flow control solutions with the integration of the EtherCAT communication protocol with its GF40 and GF80 Series thermal mass flow controllers. EtherCAT, which has been adopted by leading-edge technology companies, makes it easier to network instrumentation for advanced process control and diagnostics capabilities.

EtherCAT (Ethernet for Control Automation Technology) is an open, high-performance ethernet-based fieldbus system designed for process control applications requiring short data update times with low communication “jitter.”

Other key benefits of EtherCAT include:

• High-speed, time-synchronized communication to optimize process control;

• Low implementation costs compared to other communication networks — no special master cards and cables required;

• More flexible topology supporting up to 65,535 nodes per segment for large scale installations; and

• Ease of use with auto configuration and location-specific diagnosis.

SOR 1500 Series switches are designed for harsh environments and process materials where rugged components are critical. This family of switches provides a less expensive alternative to the traditional chambered switch and is suitable for most point level applications.

• All stainless steel construction
• Pressure from vacuum to 1500 psi, temperature from -40°F to 400°F
• Complete isolation of the process from the switch – no o-rings or seals
• Switch options designed specifically for low current DC power applications
• Horizontal switches may be oriented for high- or low-level action – no need to stock 2 different switches
• CSA Approved, SIL

Type 1510 Electrical Level Switch:

The 1510 is a horizontally mounted, float-operated level switch suitable for plant and OEM applications where open or closed contacts are required to signal presence or absence of liquid at a discrete level. The float extension arm moves a magnet which actuates or de-actuates a hermetically sealed reed switch. Actuation/de-actuation can be reversed by rotating the unit 180 degrees. The 1510 has a Manual Check and a Low Power option.

Following are other type switches available from SOR:

Type 1530 Pneumatic Level Switch

Type 1540 Side-Mount Pneumatic Level Switch

Type 1550 Vertical Electric Level Switch
