Uninterrupted data and information flow is a key prerequisite for the digitalisation of material flow in production and assembly. Frequently, however, the information chain breaks down at the "last hurdle", or its precision leaves a lot to be desired – for example, when staff request replenishments via hand scanners.

New solenoid interlocks for Ex zones

At the SPS IPC Drives, the steute business unit Extreme presented its new ZS 92 SR belt alignment switch, created on the basis of its ZS 92 S emergency pull wire switch series, which is also new.

At the SPS IPC Drives, the steute business division "Wireless" has presented not only its new wireless switchgear, but also a completely new platform for the integration of wireless switchgear in user IT structures.

The Ex HS 98 position switch, which the steute business division "Extreme" has demonstrated at the SPS IPC Drives, sets itself apart from all other Ex position switches in the comprehensive steute range due to one very striking feature. Instead of using conventional "on/off" technology, it emits an analogue signal which corresponds to the position of the actuator or plunger, detected by an integrated Hall sensor. Depending on the variant chosen, the sensor supplies the output signal in one of the three established standards 0 … 20 mA, 4 … 20 mA or 0 … 10 V.
