Endress+Hauser’s New Wireless IIoT Sensor Provides Tank Level Measurement from Anywhere

IIoT Academy

At more than 80% of all production sites, storage tank level measurement of liquids and additives is done manually, which is time- and cost-intensive. Often, it results in missing stocks only being registered when the tank has emptied and production has ground to a halt. Over-stocking to preclude such situations is usually not viable due to the added storage costs involved. Often, the measuring points are hard to access, far flung and/or difficult to supply power to.

MC Posital Extends Product Finder to Include Kit Encoders 1 400

POSITAL Extends Product Finder Portal to Include Kit Encoders

 

Kit (or modular) encoders are designed to be integrated into electric motors or other types of rotating machinery, providing position feedback for the control system. While sharing performance characteristics with POSITAL’s stand-alone absolute encoders, kit encoders are stripped-down designs without their own shafts, bearings, or seals. Instead, the rotating element – a permanent magnet array – is attached directly to a motor’s shaft, while the measurement module is designed to fit onto the motor’s housing.
