Leading industry publication Control Design describes how a custom equipment manufacturer developed their latest medical test system with IDEC’s FT1A Touch and how it helped to achieve the versatile program control critical to their success. Read More »
Minimizing complexity of programming and shortening design cyclesThis next-generation MicroSmart FC6A, a powerful micro PLC with the features of a PAC (Programmable Automation Controller) in a low-cost and small form factor, is an ideal fit for even the most demanding applications. Remote access is a snap by creating custom web pages configured for monitoring and controlling by using simple drag-and-drop functionality. No HTML programming is required, a feature unique in this class of PLCs! Features include:
Micro PLCs from IDEC control 70,000-lb doors at a giant airplane maintenance hangar in San Francisco.A Boeing 747-400 is 232 ft. long, has a wing span of 212 ft. and a tail height of 64 ft.. It weighs close to 875,000 lbs. at takeoff. The Superbay Maintenance Hangar at the San Francisco International Airport can accommodate up to four of these massive airplanes at one time. The hangar has eight doors—four on each opposite sides—allowing access to this huge space measuring 500 x 540 ft, about the size of two football fields.
Each hangar door (Figure 1) consists of two inner and two outer doors, each measuring 130 ft wide and 90 ft high to allow the planes to be towed in and pushed out using tow vehicles. Each door is made of two halves, each 65-ft wide, and weighs 74,000 lb. The door sections are mounted on dedicated rails (much like a train track), and the rails are offset so that adjacent doors can open and close without interfering with their neighboring door. Read More The NEW HG2G Enhanced Communication HMI, a significant upgrade to their previous 5.7 inch model. The color version of the HG2G Enhanced Communication HMI has a resolution of 65,536 colors via its TFT LCD screen and a brightness of 500 cd/m2. The monochrome model has a resolution of 16 shades and a brightness of 1100 cd/m2. This level of resolution produces a much improved viewing experience, and the increased brightness allows screens to be easily seen even in direct sunlight. Viewing can be configured for either portrait or landscape. With all the new and upgraded features, now the new 5.7” supports: Multiple Protocols End users and OEMs often need an HMI that can communicate with a variety of different PLCs and controllers, and the HG2G Enhanced Communication HMI delivers this functionality by supporting up to four communication protocols simultaneously. Remote Internet Access With the New 5.7” touchscreen, you can remotely access, monitor and control your touchscreen through a web browser on a computer, PDA or Smartphone. It’s like you have the touchscreen in front of you, you can both monitor and control operation. No additional software tools or modules needed to use the Remote Monitor & Control function. Up to 5 clients can remotely monitor and control simultaneously. USB Flash Drive (USB Port A) USB flash drive enables easy, convenient data transfer. Inserting a USB flash drive into the touchscreen will automatically bring up the USB transfer menu. Both IDEC HMI and PLC programs can be uploaded/downloaded from/to the USB flash drive. Data Logging, Alarm Log, Recipe and Screen Capture data can be stored in the USB flash drive as well. Backlight Life A common problem with HMIs in this class is limited backlight life, particularly since the backlight is typically not field-replaceable. The HG2G Enhanced Communication HMI LED backlight addresses this issue with a best-in-class life of 100,000 hours, which will provide many years of operation as the backlight can be automatically switched off when the HMI is not in use. Environmental The New Upgrade 5.7” screen is an excellent environmental tolerance with a very wide range of operating temperature -20 degree C to +60 degree C. The New 5.7” HG2G HMIs have new approval ratings. With the addition of UL, Type 4X and Type 13 approvals (on the front panel), New HG2G models now provide customers with a degree of protection Type 4X, Type 13, UL 508, and Class 1 Div 2 hazardous location. This makes HG2G HMIs suitable for applications in harsher environment conditions, especially where protection against corrosion is required such as in the following:
Mounting Flexibility The New 5.7”can be mounted with the screen orientation set to portrait or landscape mode depending on space requirements. According to your specific application needs, this allows you the flexibility of mounting the touchscreen. The possibilities are endless!
Designed with a 1- and 2-pole 3HP/277V AC rating in an economical and compact package, 30A RL power relays are the superior choice for HVAC panels, energy management and applications requiring higher voltage loads and inductive kickback. Choose from panel or DIN rail mounting. Unlike the competition, when DIN rail mounted, RL relays don’t require a socket or adaptor. Quick Connect terminals allow faster installation on commercial applications, while screw terminations are ideal for industrial applications.
IDEC interface relays provide a compact solution for general purpose relay requirements. The RV8 series interface relays are ideal for PLC and other controller output, industrial automation, panel builders, assembly machine applications and other applications that require a high switching capability in a compact space. The RV8 relays can be used as a universal interfaces between the controller and the actuator to switch small and medium size loads. Installation time is greatly reduced with pre-assembled relays and sockets – with either screw connections or spring clamp terminations. Replacement relays and sockets are also available. Optional accessories include jumpers, spacers and marking plates to facilitate wiring and quick identifications. The primary versions available are:
Boasting completely new hardware with substantial upgrades, the compact and powerful FL1F SmartRelay series features a new CPU base module, new digital and analog expansion modules configurable up to 60 I/O and an improved Text Display Panel allowing configuration of twice as many lines and characters. And that’s just to start! Along with universal voltage, built-in analog inputs, real time clock and 10 Amp relay outputs, we’ve added additional features comparable to a micro PLC. This includes an embedded RJ45 Ethernet port so users can remotely monitor, download and upload programs from a web browser. No special programming cable required! And with an embedded micro SD port, data logging is now supported and the ability to store and transfer programs couldn’t be easier. Users want to monitor and control the SmartRelay from a smart phone and tablet? No problem. New SmartRelay Apps will be available in December for all iOS and Android devices. Extra enhancements include the ability to network up to 16 SmartRelays over an Ethernet network, an improved LCD display, and improved Real Time Clock backup up to 480 hours. Highlights
