‘Fieldbus Modules’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Safety relays simplify control-system design from
Eaton Corp, which we summarised at the time by saying "Safety relays in the Eaton Moeller ESR5 range simplify the design and implementation of control systems that meet safety and reliability standards.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release SKF units improve continuous-cast milling from
SKF UK: "Two SKF solutions have been developed to deliver benefits to continuous casting mills. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Watlow
- take a look at Watlow's Profibus DP simplifies plant design
which says: "Watlow has brought out the Profibus DP (Decentralized Peripherals) with EZ-Zone PM and EZ-Zone RM integrated temperature controllers. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Carlo Gavazzi, Carlo Gavazzi launches RSBT-type 15kW soft starter,
as well as NI devices suit extended-temperature operation from National Instruments,
and Wago enhances power supply range from Wago Corp.
