Modules incorporate BradConnectivity's new Ultra-Lock(TM)
technology, which provides for fast, simple and secure connections in
harsh environments
Woodhead Industries, Inc., (NASDAQ:WDHD) a designer and
manufacturer of industrial communication products for the global
automation market, has announced the addition of its Classic 60mm wide
family of IP67 BradControl(TM) discrete I/O modules for PROFIBUS(R).
The BradControl Classic 60mm wide I/O modules for PROFIBUS come in
an 8-port 16-channel format with the availability of four I/O
configurations supporting both PNP and NPN input devices. When
applications require a smaller I/O count, users should choose the
BradControl PROFIBUS Compact 30mm wide discrete I/O range of products
which provide an 8-channel format. PROFIBUS slave DP-V0 is supported
in accordance to EN 50170 specifications. Each BradControl Classic
60mm I/O module comes equipped with diagnostic LEDs providing status
information on network, power, inputs and outputs. To facilitate input
and output device wiring BradControl Classic 60mm I/O modules accept
standard threaded M12 connectors or BradConnectivity's new
Ultra-Lock(TM) connection system.
The new Ultra-Lock(TM) connection system provides an innovative
"push-to-lock" mechanism used to provide fast, simple and secure
connections between the I/O module and the I/O devices. With the
Ultra-Lock connection system, performance and reliability are designed
right into the connector. The unique radial seal design provides a
reliable, operator independent seal each and every time, eliminating
the risk of under- or over-tightening. When installers hear and feel
the connector click, they can be assured that it's locked in place -
with no guesswork required.
BradControl discrete I/O modules are ideally suited for use with
material handling equipment and automated assembly machinery. They can
be machine mounted and are rated for IP67 harsh environments. Woodhead
Industries provides a complete line of PROFIBUS connectivity solutions
through its PC & PLC interfaces, gateways, diagnostic tools, physical
media, and I/O modules.
