F.Fonseca presents IP69K stainless steel distribution boxes from Murrelektronik IP69K stainless steel distribution boxes open the door for decentralization of applications in the Food and Beverage industry. Machine components and installations in the F&B industry have to be easy to clean. As a result, Murrelektronik's new MVP12 Steel distribution box is made of high-quality stainless steel. It is an ideal solution to implement a decentralized approach in F&B machines and installations. The F&B industry doesn't make any compromises where cleanliness and corrosion protection are concerned. Dirt must be easy to remove. Parts are exposed to high pressure wash downs with aggressive cleaning agents. This makes stainless steel the preferred material. Murrelektronik's MVP12 Steel distribution boxes feature a closed stainless steel housing and threaded sleeves made of V4A stainless steel ensuring an IP69K rating. No matter if you are cleaning, rinsing or disinfecting MVP12 Steel will always operate reliably. One Homerun Cable Instead of Eight Single Cables Prior to the introduction of MVP Steel, individual cables had to be routed through a system - a very complex task in the F&B industry because of the cleanliness requirements. Now a single homerun cable replaces the individual ones. This reduces material costs, the amount of wiring and space required. Moreover, terminal boxes are no longer required in the field. MVP12 Metal is installed close to the process so sensors and actuators can be connected to one of its eight ports with the shortest possible cables.

F.Fonseca presents Smart Current Distribuition Mico Pro® from Murrelektronik   Mico Pro® is the new and innovative current monitoring system from Murrelektronik. The modular system enables you to adapt systems precisely to suit specific applications – offering a favorable cost-benefit ratio while also being economical in their use of space. The patented tripping process assures optimum machine availability. An additional benefit: an integrated concept for potential distribution that significantly declutters the switch cabinet wiring.   Power supply systems are the heart of machines and systems and provide the required energy. This is why they must not be shut down by overcurrents or short-circuits which result in machine downtime, production losses and high costs. Maximum reliability of the power supply systems is essential! Mico Pro® from Murrelektronik guarantees reliable power supply systems. This intelligent current monitoring system from Murrelektronik monitors all load and control currents in a consistent manner and identifies critical moments at the right time. Mico Pro® signals limit loads and switches defective channels off in a targeted manner to prevent total system crashes, and to assure a high level of machine availability. The tripping process has been patented, and applies the principle of “as late as possible, as early as necessary.” But Mico Pro® also identifies “volatile” errors, such as a cable break in drag chains that only occurs at certain movement angles. Mico Pro® identifies capacitive loads and starts them up in a controlled way.   Mico Pro® is suitable for application in all industries.

F.Fonseca presents Vibration analysis camera Vshooter VBS1T from Synergys Technologies The VSHOOTER is a comprehensive diagnostic tool that allows to know and to easily track the status of the more common rotating machines such as fans, pumps, screw compressors and others. The vibration analyser VSHOOTER VBS1T from Synergys Technologies is much more than an innovation in the field of the vibration meters, it is a totally new concept, a new way to do vibration monitoring and analysis.   This new modern concept consists of creating automatically Machine Condition Pictures (MCP) which can be saved and uploaded to a PC into a report with detailed vibration data and trending curves. With a MCP you see immediately the machine condition. After having done the second MCP on the same machine you’ll be able to follow the machine condition evolution on a trending curve. The vibration analyser VSHOOTER VBS1T is a portable measuring device equipped with an external high quality accelerometer, an embedded camera, led stroboscope and pyrometer. A special software has been developed to get photos enhanced with information. On every MCP appears the measuring points locations. The points appear in green, yellow, orange or red according to the classification of ISO 10816-3&7. The vibrations of newly installed machines are normally in green zone. The machines whose vibrations are in yellow zone are normally considered acceptable for a long service life without any restrictions. Machines whose vibrations are in orange zone are normally considered unsuitable for long-term continuous service. The vibration values found in red zone are normally considered significant enough to cause damage.   Vibration analysis camera Vshooter VBS1T from Synergys Technologies is indicated for all kind of industries that use rotating machines such as fans, pumps, screw compressors and all kind of machines that use bearings.

F.Fonseca presents the new Netbiter EC350 - the latest gateway for remote management of industrial equipment.   The Netbiter EC350 is the first in a new generation of Netbiter gateways. It connects to industrial machinery via Modbus (serial), Ethernet, SNMP, (EtherNet/IP, coming 2014) or I/O and sends data to the cloud-based Netbiter data center via Ethernet or cellular communications. While previous generations of Netbiter gateways have been able to communicate via GSM/GPRS, the new Netbiter EC350 is enhanced to also communicate over 3G networks.   The 3G communication provides increased performance compared to GPRS and also increases the geographical cellular coverage as it is possible to install the gateway where 3G is the only available network. With support for 5 different 3G bands, the Netbiter EC350 is a product suitable for the global market.   The Netbiter EC350 will support “Remote Access” functionality. This means that users can open up a secure connection to remote machinery and configure or operate it from any location using standard software applications. Remote access provides a secure data tunnel to the remotely located equipment. For example, with a Netbiter connected to a PLC, it is possible to perform remote debugging or programming of the PLC from any location, using the same PLC configuration software as usual. The Netbiter EC350 gateway connects to e.g drilling equipment using a serial, Ethernet or I/O connection. Once the Netbiter gateway is connected, it automatically starts to send setup and initialization data via the Internet or the mobile network (GSM/GPRS/3G) to the cloud-based Netbiter Argos data center. This means you only just need to physicaly connect the gateway, the setup and configuration can be made remotely from any location. This gateway for remote management is suitable for application in all industries, regardless of the sector of activity.
