Application Note: Event Engine and Water Level

January 29, 2020 | Product News

Neal Systems Engineer Peter Jackson has created a simple but effective solution using a Red Lion Cellular Data Modem. In this application note, Peter demonstrates a simple, but powerful feature of the event engine and how to control the level of water in a fish tank.

The same principle can be used for a municipal tank level, flow, pressure, temperature, or to a stirrer.

Why use surge protectors on your application?

November 12, 2019 | Product News

Surge protectors usually are triggered and reset when there is a potentially damaging electrical surge in signal cables. Only when the surge goes above 20kA or more do these devices fail, which is what can be seen in the photos below.

When these types of surges occur, without protection, the entire panel would likely be destroyed. Instead, a small economical device takes the hit, breaks the circuit and the entire panel is protected.

The photo shows a melted and exploded-looking MTL SD32MDX. The energy this device was able to take and divert saved the connected sensitive electrical equipment from destruction.

For around $100 a piece you can potentially save thousands in repairs and replacements with a simple installation of a surge protection unit.




Configuring Schneider Electric’s Foxboro RTT15S Temperature Transmitter

February 11, 2019 | Product News

The RTT15S Temperature Transmitter is a microprocessor based temperature transmitter that uses HART communication protocol. In addition to thermocouples and 2, 3, or 4 wire RTDs, the unit can take in ohm and millivolt signals. The RTT15S is in an explosion=proof housing with optional display and optical buttons for local configuration. This unit is also available as a basic module that can be surface or DIN rail mounted.  Basic configurations on the RTT15S is a snap! Take a look at our newest video HERE highlighting Schneider Electric’s Foxboro RTT15S Temperature Transmitter.
