Distribution boxes simplify field connections
Multiport distribution boxes simplify the applied wiring of sensor actuators, enabling multiple connections in an area with just one connection going back to the controller.
Snap mounting eases sensor installation
The novel mounting system used with E3FZ sensors completely eliminates the need for nuts and screws.
Development time is reduced as users have simple, direct access to data without the need for interface programming.
The requirements for HMIs have evolved significantly, and this certainly applies to the demand for effective graphics.
NS HMIs ensure that graphic video and images appear rapidly, are bright and clearly visible from any practical viewing angle.
NS provides the platform for users to detect, troubleshoot and recover a situation using inbuilt diagnostics and configurations of predetermined data.
For maintenance, it provides the basis for preventive maintenance programs.
The latest addition to Omron's NS range of HMIs is also its smallest.
The entry-level NS5 is a 5.7in STN model, to complement the 8, 10 and 12in TFT screens already available.
This compact model also features powerful "machine management" functionality.
Application programs written for NS5 will work on all models in the family, which allows a scalable display solution without extra cost.
The NS5 screen's 320 x 240 pixels produce 4096 colours, which allow bit map images to be used with amazing clarity.
The NS5's display features a long-life backlight (50,000 hours) that maintains the same high-quality performance over its working life.
