TURCK LAUNCHES IP67 MANAGED ETHERNET SWITCH FOR DECENTRALIZED CONTROL
Device offers Gigabit and standard ports in the same device
Turck, a manufacturer of sensors, connectivity and fieldbus technology for factory, logistics and process automation, today announced it launched the TBEN-Lx-SE-M2, a rugged IP67 managed Ethernet switch.
Managed Ethernet switches help enable safer and more efficient industrial networking. IP67 switches are used directly on a machine so users can configure, manage, and monitor connected machines and devices remotely, ourside of a control cabinet. Turck now offers a more rugged version with two high-speed back-bone ports (Gbit) in addition to eight standard ports (100 Mbits).
The TBEN-Lx-SE-M2 is ideal for the most robust industrial environments such as for tool changes in machine tools, robot applications in automotive manufacturing, and for use on mobile equipment. It features IP67/IP69K ratings and a wide operating temperature range for decentralized installation outside of the control cabinet.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
