Turck has expanded its line of PT2000 pressure transmitters with the release of a variant for use in hydraulic systems.  With a list of features that includes an SAE fitting, stainless cell, gel filled housing, and an integrated snubber to reduce the damaging effects of pressure spikes, these transmitters provide an ideal solution for demanding hydraulic applications. The SAE #4 and SAE #6 process connections are particularly important, as they are commonly used for hydraulic equipment in North America. The new transmitters, which offer a welded stainless steel measuring cell for increased durability and increased chemical compatibility, have no elastomer seals and all wetted materials are 316L stainless steel. Additionally, the housing is more compact than existing solutions, suiting it for applications with space constraints. The transmitters are available in multiple pre-scaled pressure ranges from 30 to 14,500 psig.   The new variant also offers multiple output signal...

Turck is pleased to announce the addition of the Hybrid Safety Block I/O Module for CIP Safety over EtherNet/IP to our industry leading lineup of fieldbus technology products. The hybrid safety concept from Turck combines both safety I/O and general purpose I/O in a single, rugged, on-machine, remote I/O device. The CIP Safety (TBIP) module expands the existing hybrid safety offering, which already includes an option for PROFIsafe over PROFINET. Both IP67 hybrid modules can be adapted to the actual signal requirements of an installation through the use of configurable input/output points and by leveraging the flexibility of IO-Link. On the safety side, the hybrid modules offer two safety inputs for connecting safety sensors, such as light curtains or emergency stop buttons. Two additional safety channels can be used as either inputs or outputs. The general purpose (non-safety related) side includes four configurable discrete inputs/outputs capable of switching up to two amps when used ...

Turck announces an expansion of its encoder offering with the release of Compact Magnetic Absolute Multiturn Encoders. Available in Analog, CANopen, and SSI output, these compact devices are ideal for OEM applications where space is limited, and where reliability and pricing are a factor. The cost-competitive nature of this product will also see it used in a wide range of general position applications. �These are the first encoders from Turck with Energy Harvesting Technology,� explained Marty Cwach, senior product manager for sensors. �No longer are there worries of battery life or mechanical gears to track revolutions in these magnetic multiturn devices. This is the next great step in providing our customers with an increasing portfolio of Turck encoder solutions.� Turck�s compact magnetic absolute multiturn encoders come in a 39mm diameter housing. The standard product line offers IP65/IP67 protection, while the Robust series includes IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection a...
