Explosive atmospheres, harsh environments, extreme temperatures—the process industry places unique demands on the people and technology working in the sector. This also applies to thin clients, as they are known in office applications. Unlike traditional PCs, thin clients run applications on remote servers rather than on the local hardware, and only transmit image information and user inputs over the network.
In this blog article, we explain what needs to be considered when installing multiple ultrasonic sensors and how to prevent potential switching faults by synchronization.
To avoid incorrect measurement results of your ultrasonic sensor in the plant, we answer some frequently asked customer questions regarding mounting.
To choose the right ultrasonic sensor for a particular application, it is necessary to determine which factors affect the detection range and accuracy of ultrasonic sensors and how incorrect measurements can be corrected.
How do temperature, rain, and other external factors influence the performance of ultrasonic sensors? Read the blog article below to find out how ultrasonic sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs handle extreme conditions.
Different operating modes can be achieved with ultrasonic sensors with switching output by appropriate construction and configuration. Learn more in this blog article about how diffuse mode sensors, retroreflective sensors, and ultrasonic thru-beam sensors work.
This blog article introduces the ultrasonic technology and its function principles.
If you want to establish internal food traceability in a meat processing plant, you face a number of challenges: Diverse processes, harsh environmental conditions, hygiene requirements and different transport routes demand a flexible and at the same time reliable technology. Industrial RFID offers a solution for this and also, depending on the application, other additional benefits.
The fieldbus terminator, also referred to as a terminator, is a component in a fieldbus system. This terminator takes the shape of a series connection featuring a 1 µF capacitor and a 100 Ω resistor. The main task of the fieldbus terminator is to transform the data signal transmitted as a current change into a voltage change that can be detected by all nodes.
RFID is one of the most versatile technologies in industrial automation. Whatever industry you may be thinking of—it is highly likely that RFID will be used there. We have compiled ten RFID applications that give you ideas for possible applications and demonstrate the advantages of this identification technology.
