Weidmuller RockStar® Moduplug "Great performance in the smallest of spaces"

Weidmuller's RockStar® ModuPlug sets new standards for modular connector systems. To put it simply, they solve the omnipresent space problem by offering increased functionality over reduced installation space requirements. These features in turn reduce the overall weight and by extension, cost

If you are unfamiliar with the term modular connector system - it is a system consisting of individual modular connectors - each modular connector either an input or output - that connects electrical devices within a network. Sometimes these connector systems have limited space requirements while needing to maintain a large number of connections - picture a maintenance shed loaded with water pumps, relays, temperature controls, gate controls, and other equipment miles from the main pumping station. In this case, the RockStar® ModuPlug is well-suited to work within tight spaces due to its high density of contacts within a smaller form factor compared to the industry standard.

Bottom line: When you have those modules populated then make that final connection in a shed miles from nowhere and all of the machinery whirs ON for a job a well done …you are truly a RockStar®, and the plug is pretty cool too!

Here are some of the ways the RockStar® lives up to its name:

  1. The Pitch size is halved thus doubling the number of module spaces and therefore increasing functionality.

  2. Power to weight ratio – the 100 A module is available in a “Single Plus 1.5” width which is narrower than the market standard. This allows for more modules over the same space versus the standard size. In addition, there are even smaller frames and enclosure sizes to save additional space and weight.

  3. More signals over less space/weight – Higher contact density. The double HD 36 has 36 signal contacts (rated at 250 V), 50% more than the market standard.

And all this with more convenient installation!

Autonics Proximity Sensors, Temp Controllers and Modular Switches

At any given time, we stock a broad range of Autonics proximity and temperature sensors as well as a robust number of temperature controls, timing relays, and modular switches.

For proximity sensors, we have several flavors of the CR Series – Cylindrical Capacitive Proximity Sensors – which can detect any material with a dielectric different than air. They can detect a wide range of materials from conductive to non-conductive types AND are easily configurable to boot!

In addition to the CR series, we have robust offerings in the PR Series and PRCM Series of proximity sensors. Both series are available in various sizes and sensing distances and are designed to work in a diverse range of applications calling for non-contact detection of metallic objects. One thing we noted is that you will not have to worry about EMI interference as both series feature noise immunity with a specialized sensor IC.

Switching gears, we offer a wide variety of Autonics Temperature Controllers ranging from the high performance TK Series featuring high precision temperature control with simultaneous heating and cooling options, to the economical dual display TCN and TC series as well as the highly-touted dual-speed TZN series which feature dual-speed PID control for high-speed or high-precision temperature control.

Lastly, to fill that IDEC sized whole in your heart, we carry Autonics modular switches and pilot light products. We are high on these products for a number of reasons including their reputation for long-lasting durability, smooth operation (queue the song "Smooth Operator", high electrical conductivity, modular design, stackable contacts and the wide variety of colors and actuator forms to choose from.

For more information on Autonics product options, please conntact your inside sales representative or give us a call at 503-233-5341.

Weidmuller Wednesdays: Timing Relays + smokin' Crimp & Strip Tool Promos!

Optimized for building and factory automation, these two timing relays will cover most critical applications in industrial environments including compensating for errors in high clock rates.

Here are the details:

7-function relay (part no. 2697250000) - TFI-SERIES, Multifunction timing relay, with separate control input, Number of contacts: 1, CO contact, AgNi, Rated control voltage: 12...240 V UC -10 % / +10 %, Continuous current: 8 A, Screw connection.

On-Delay only relay (part no. 2697280000) - TFI-SERIES, On-delay timing relay, Number of contacts: 1, CO contact, AgNi, Rated control voltage: 24...240 V UC -15 % / +10 %, Continuous current: 8 A, Screw connection.

Reach out to us at 503-233-5341 if you would like to know more about Weidmuller timing relays, or you can email us at sales@ursele.com at your convenience.

In addition to the time delay relays, we still have a couple of hot Weidmuller tool promos popping off...

The PZ 10 HEX + VT LCL voltage tester kit (part no 2523440000) going for an insane low price of $159. Designed to work with 26-8AWG (0.14-10.0mm²) ferrules, the PZ 10 Hex crimp tool is easy on your hands whilst still making an incredibly secure and reliable connection.

Also ready for it's forever home is the Stripax Ultimate + VT CL voltage tester promo kit going for $59 (part no. 2523420000). The Stripax Ultimate is a self-adjusting wire stripper and cutter that strips 24-10AWG wire like a dream. Unique V-shaped blades lower the hand forced required to strip insulation and makes easy work of wires with tough insulation such as those certified by UL as SIS, THHN and halogen-free.

The FLIR One Pro

Staff Editorial - The FLIR One Pro epitomizes what science historian James Burke termed the “warm blanket of technology”. Let’s face it, technology makes some things undeniably easier. Yes, there are drawbacks and unintended consequences to some tech, but who could argue with the necessary usefulness say of a CT Scanner in the hands of a medical imaging professional, or a Satellite Telephone for a search and rescue team. The FLIR One in the hands of an HVAC tech or a general contractor, could be deemed necessarily useful. 

The FLIR One Pro connects to an iPhone via the lighting port.

The FLIR One Pro connects to an iPhone via the lighting port.

A field tech or a contractor, in many ways, is like a magician; working with things often unseen to please the audience, in this case, the customer is the audience. The FLIR ONE Pro is geared toward finding invisible problems – hot electrical panels, mechanical problems, HVAC issues, water damage, etc. - and this is important - before they become large-scale, highly-visible problems.

Here's the lowdown on how this technological dynamo becomes a tech's magic wand - it comes loaded with state of the art innovations. The FLIR One Pro boasts enhanced resolution through VividIRᵀᴹ which improves thermal sensitivity and image quality, while FLIR MSX® technology adds finer details and perspective to images. And, it has the FLIR OneFitᵀᴹ connector, which extends up to 4 mm to attach the device to your smartphone through many popular phone cases. Pretty cool if you ask us!

Hmmm reminds me of a certain blockbuster movie from the ‘80s.

Hmmm reminds me of a certain blockbuster movie from the ‘80s.

So why the "Predator" reference in the headline graphic? We admit, it is a bit odd, but we cannot help but see thermal images and set our mental way-back machine to 1987, the year that produced arguably the finest cinematic experience of all time - John McTiernan's "Predator". The movie is as infinitely quotable/watchable as the FLIR One Pro is useful. And who knows, maybe the Predator was using FLIR imaging tech the whole time.

For all you contractors, HVAC techs, field workers out there, the FLIR One Pro allows you to channel your inner "Predator" by hunting for problems before they prey on your project.  Or if the magician analogy is more fitting, with a wave of the FLIR One Pro, you can see that which is invisible to the naked eye, and solve an issue before things escalate. 

Easy to use and portable, the FLIR One Pro is ready to be your magic wand in diagnosing problems invisible to the naked eye.
