With the new "MC55 High," WERMA Signaltechnik continues the success story of the compact MC55 signal light series. The 55 mm diameter light has a higher dome, offering significantly better visibility – even from a greater distance or at unfavourable viewing angles. It can be flexibly integrated and is ideal for applications where status indicators must be in the operator's direct field of vision, such as on machines, conveyor belts, in robot cells, or on peripheral devices. "With the MC55 High, we have created a solution that seamlessly adapts to the requirements of modern industrial environments – visible from afar, eye-catching, flexible, and smartly expandable," says Daniel Kensy, Head of Development at WERMA. "The new design with a higher dome was developed specifically in response to feedback from our customers and represents the next logical step within the MC55 family."

With the introduction of the first modular signal tower KombiSIGN, WERMA Signaltechnik set a technological milestone and defined a new standard for industrial signaling. The family-owned company is now consistently continuing this innovative strength: Following the development of LineLIGHT Fusion – the first fully integrable signaling solution – the next evolutionary stage is now here: LineLIGHT Fusion Segment. This new variant makes it possible to divide the light pattern into several segments and display machine statuses even more precisely, individually, and intuitively. For example, two states can be signaled simultaneously, indicating an even more specific need for action. In addition, an automatic scaling function is available, allowing process steps or progress to be clearly displayed. WERMA is once again setting standards for modern machine design and intelligent signaling solutions.

No, this is not the beginning of a crime story. Rather, we would like to introduce you to a new product in the ipf portfolio. Our leakage detection device for compressed air. In process automation, the use of compressed air plays an essential role. At first glance, the production of this operating resource seems uncomplicated, but including the provision of this resource, it requires an expenditure of resources that should not be underestimated. For example, compressed air must be available in a correspondingly pure form, i.e. filters must be used to clean the air (condensed water and particles) so that the system does not experience excessive wear. Nevertheless, wear and tear, but also damage, repeatedly lead to uncontrolled loss of system compressed air, which is noticeable by more or less loud hissing. Locating the leakage points of the compressed air was previously sometimes time-consuming and nerve-racking. However, the ipf leakage detector can provide considerable assistance in the search. Special microphone attachments, a headset and an integrated laser pointer allow the position of a leak to be precisely determined. Since the leakage location in a system may not be easily accessible, there are various microphone attachments available to reach even inaccessible fault locations and thus identify them specifically. However, the leakage detector not only assists in troubleshooting, but also in checking and documenting the energy balance. For example, the measured values collected on site can be stored in the device with additional information, transferred to a PC, and software can be used to create complete documentation in the sense of energy management according to ISO 50001. The leakage detector is available as a set in a handy case with complete accessories under article number UY98E266 or as a single device under article number UY000001.

The company Georg Schlegel GmbH & Co. KG expanded its control unit portfolio by two components for the radio sector. For the wireless local area network acc. to the standard IEEE 802.11 Schlegel is offering the adapter RRJ_WLU_01 with USB connector. It is designed for the specification IEEE 802.11n and thus it theoretically allows transmisson rates of up to 600 MBits/s in the frequency range of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The standard IEEE 802.11n is downward compatible to IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11b, thus the adapter can also be used in networks with those specifications. 64/128-bit WEP, WPA and WPA2 encoding are supported. The compact WiFi adapter has a mounting depth of only 41 mm and a USB 2.0 cable of 150 cm length for the connection to a Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, Mac OS X or Linux system. For a considerably lower mounting depth of 27 mm Schlegel has developed the WiFi antenna RRJ_WLA_01. Same as all WiFi products, it is conform to IEEE 802.11 (a/b/g/n/ac) and acc. to IEC 60169-15 it can be connected via a SMA end launch jack. Both WiFi products are IP65 and are designed for a panel cut-out of Ø 22.3 mm and they fit the Rontron-R-Juwel range with its several design awards.
