Unit 3B, Lythalls Lane Industrial Estate, Lythalls Lane, Coventry CV6 6FL UNITED KINGDOM T. +44 2476 30 7722 | E. sales@andantex.co.uk www.andantex.co.uk Schaffner has introduced a range of low-leakage-current EMI filters for motor drives, power drive systems and other power converter applications. The FN 3287 (480V AC) and FN 3288 (480V AC or 690V AC) series three- phase filters offer designers a range of an EMI filters with leakage currents from 0.1–12mA The filters, which are optimised for machine tools and other machinery applications, are available in 11 current ratings from 10–160A. The low-leakage-current versions can be used with RCDs. By specifying appropriately- sized filters at the start of the design phase, machines and installations can be optimised to meet EMC requirements from the outset. Considering EMI at an early stage also saves resources, time and costs. The filters are based on a new architecture that results in a smaller footprint and allows the connection terminals to be included within the filter cubical. The filters are CE, UL and ENEC approved and RoHS compliant. Schaffner www.schaffner.com EMI filters include low leakage current versions Carlo Gavazzi has launched a handheld device that makes it easier to configure, adjust and diagnose many IO-Link sensors. The wireless SCTL55 IO-Link smart configurator provides sensor status data – including current temperature, quality of run and process data. It can be used to change parameters such as switch-point mode, sensing distance, timing functions, and output configurations (PNP/NPN, push/pull, NO/NC). The configurator runs on the Android platform and includes a 5.5” touchscreen, as well as apps to access diagnostics, measure operating hours, and check the number of detections, operating cycles, alarms and events. It doesn’t need a PC or other software to configure a sensor. Users simply plug a sensor into one of three connectors and the device will search for the IODD file automatically. If it can’t find the file, it will download it automatically once connected to Wi-Fi or a mobile hotspot. Users can add any parameter to a favourites list on the homepage and create profiles with different levels of accessibility to the sensor’s parameters. The memory can be expanded using an SD card, and the configured data can be saved to a PC or database. The high-capacity rechargeable battery lasts more than five hours in full operation, and more than 22 hours with the screen off. Charging is done via an included mini-USB cable. The configurator is housed in an IP30- protected polycarbonate body. Carlo Gavazzi UK 01276 854110 www.carlogavazzi.co.uk Device makes it easier to configure and monitor IO-Link sensors
