New product series packaged in a 6-mm module width for converting and isolating analogue signals. High levels of functionality with minimum space requirements. ACT20M product series with Ex Zone 2 approval.

Weidmüller has implemented a particularly compact design for its new marshalling and power distribution terminals PRV and PPV for power station plant and process engineering applications. The PRV family of products consists of 4-, 8- and the innovative 16-tier marshalling and distribution terminals; the PPV family comprises the 4- and 8-tier power distributors. Distributing more than 1700 signals per meter the 16-way PRV multi-tier with "PUSH IN " connection technology is again setting new standards - at the present time it is an absolutely unique solution. "PUSH IN" connection technology guarantees touch safety against inadvertent short circuiting. The "PUSH IN" double connection guarantees simple power distribution, and serves equally as a separate testing point. "PUSH IN" allows users to simply insert the prepared conductor into the terminal point to quickly create a reliable, jolt-proof, gas-tight connection. Moreover, this connection technology ensures vibration-proof and effective conductor retention forces. And in comparison with other connection technologies it achieves a higher wiring density combined with best-possible handling characteristics. Clearly identifiable matrix markings and colour-coded operating elements help to ensure optimum orientation when extending the system or carrying out maintenance work by facilitating unambiguous terminal arrangement and, as a consequence, error-free signal assignments. The V-shaped busbar of the PRV and PPV marshalling and power distribution terminals is a unique solution. This design feature compensates for different material expansion rates between the plastic terminal carrier and the copper feature. Even in the face of temperature fluctuations or varying climatic conditions it always guarantees stable and low contact resistances.

New family of EX approved power supply units designed to meet the needs of the processing industry and demanding automation technology solutions. Single-phase, slimline switch-mode power supplies save space when populating electrical cabinets. A truly international solution thanks to wide-range input and the corresponding approvals.

To facilitate precise preparation of cables and conductors utilised in the photovoltaic sector Weidmüller now proudly offers the practical "multi-stripax PV", the multifunctional cutting and stripping tool. This precision tool speeds up the "cutting and stripping" process by making it possible to process a wide variety of solar cables from different manufacturers with just one tool – and without having to change blades. The unique mechanical construction of the "multi-stripax^® PV" guarantees the repeatability of precision insulation stripping results. "multi-stripax^® PV" is again setting the pace when it comes to processing cables and conductors.

With its 'WMF' family (Weidmüller Multi Function) Weidmüller is presenting a new multifunctional family of terminal blocks to enable simple and precise routing and distribution of signals in process engineering plants and power generation facilities. Boasting a design width of just 5 mm these space-saving terminal blocks combine different functions in a single module -– feed-through, fusing and disconnect functions. Further advantages of this system include an integrated shield or PE connection, three cross-connection channels as well as connections to accommodate 'BLZ' connectors. In conjunction with pre-assembled cable sets and terminated 'BLZ' connectors routing and distributing is a simple matter of Plug and Play. 'WMF' terminal blocks are equipped with world renowned, vibration proof and maintenance-free clamping yoke (screw) connections as well as extensive marking options to facilitate identification of electrical equipment. Users can also take advantage of Weidmüller's diverse programme of accessories to adapt the 'WMF' family of products to achieve the best possible solution for their application.

At this year’s SPS/IPC/DRIVES, Weidmüller introduces an innovative generation of printed circuit board connectors for drive systems and components. OMNIMATE POWER HYBRID SV/BVF 7.62 connectors for printed circuit boards connect the energy and signal lines as well as the braided shielding of a device in only one operation, locking automatically.
