Turck PT2000 Pressure Transmitters for Hydraulic Systems

Image
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...

Leuze Electronic Long Distance Actuator ST Series Safety Switches

Image
Leuze Electronic goes the distance with their long distance actuator for the ST series safety switches! A new actuator to be combined with the ST series safety sensors equipped with RFID technology is now available.  Compared to the standard version, with an activation distance of 12 mm, the new actuator has an activation distance of 18 mm. Leuze Electronic is one the first manufacturers to offer this type of actuator, which is ideal when a precise distance between the sensor and actuator cannot be guaranteed.  The ST series features an electronic system based on RFID technology to detect the actuator. This system gives a different coding to each actuator and makes it impossible to tamper with a device by using another actuator belonging to the same series. The actuators may have millions of different coding combinations, and are therefore classified as actuators with a high coding level, according to EN ISO 14119 . The new SM actuator has fixing holes with a center-to-center ...
