Control Cabinet
Murrelektronik views power management as the starting point
for machine efficiency. Power conditioning, properly sized power
supplies, current monitoring, redundancy and energy
savings are all considered when we assemble a power
management solution for our partners.

The combined technologies offered by Murrelektronik help you
to achieve a power management solution tailored to your
application, your budget and your peace of mind.

Interfaces
Signal transferring and processing happens all over in industrial
machine environments. Communicating the signals between the
cabinet and field is where Murrelektronik has multiple solutions
for creating the right interface for your application. Convenient
service outlets, space saving control panel interface, Ethernet
switches, and signal convertors are all available from
Murrelektronik. Combining our array of cabinet signal interface
products with the rest of our connectivity solutions will help to
improve machine reliability and serviceability.

Fieldbus
With Murrelektronik‘s fieldbus technology you can connect
sensors and actuators conveniently and systematically to a higher
control level. This allows cost-effective installation and
automation solutions in machines and plants for many industries.

Murrelektronik offers solutions for any application. Our fieldbus
modules enable convenient and thorough diagnostics. While the
principle of “changing the bus without changing the system”
provides flexibility.

SMC's Pneumatone

"Inspired by rock-n-roll.  Designed by world-class engineers."

SMC's Pneumatone is a pneumatically automated machine playing the game Rock Band 3.  The machine plays all four instruments in Rock Band 3 (guitar, bass, drums, and keyboard) and was displayed for the first time at the PackExpo in Las Vegas Sept 2011.  The machine was designed and built by SMC's design engineering team in Indiana.

Take a look at the video links below to see the machine in action:

Ethernet/IP Network I/O Video from Balluff

Video overview of Balluff's Ethernet/IP I/O:

Balluff EtherNet/IP machine mount I/O Blocks

Balluff has introduced a new line of EtherNet/IP™ machine mount I/O blocks. Balluff's EtherNet/IP™ line consists of twelve versions of IP67 of machine mount I/O blocks and an IP 67 unmanaged switch.

[High Resolution Picture Link]

I/O Block Network Features:

• Easy, flexible IP addressing methods
• BOOTP/DHCP
• IP67 quick change addressing plug (IPAP)
• Addressable display (100 series only)
• Webserver interface
• Certified by ODVA to ensure reliable operation and complete interoperability
• Operates at 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s speeds for maximum throughput (auto recognize)
• Rugged M12 (D-coded) ethernet connector
• Supports star topology for increased reliability, accurate troubleshooting, and fast commissioning

Highly Visible Status LEDs

Status LEDs are vital during setup, preventative maintenance, and unplanned downtime. Traditional LEDs often become unreadable in the harsh and crowded manufacturing environment, but Balluff's LEDs are big, bright, and easy to see.

Detailed Level of Diagnostics

Many diagnostic features including monitoring low voltage conditions on the auxiliary power connector, short circuit and overload status.  

Powerful and Safe Outputs

Output current of up to 2 amps the output blocks are capable of driving almost any load.  Each output incorporates low trip overload protection with LED indication and a latching feature for easy troubleshooting.

Innovative Housing Design

This fully potten housing survives being stepped on, hit, improperly mounted, covered with debris, and splashed with caustic liquids. Super low-profile helps keep cables tucked safely out of harm's way. Rounded corners offer highly visible locations for channel markers. Strong metal housing requires only two mounting points and is tolerant of over-tightening.

Local Storage of IP Address

Unique IP67 Address Plug (IPAP) stores the block’s IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address. The IPAP has the additional features of user defined LEDs (which can aide in troubleshooting) and has an attachement strap to fix the IPAP to the network cable.

Addressable Display (100 series only)
Backlit display shows IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address. Push buttons allow the setting of any octet of the above addresses. The display can be locked out via the controller.

User Defined LEDs (100 series only) 

Similar to the IPAP, the display has the additional feature of red and green LEDs, which aid in troubleshooting.
