Industrial Ethernet - STEADYTECH technology:
"The future of connection technology for data and signal transmissions", STEADYTECH is an extremely reliable, extraordinarily practical, flexible and especially efficient plug-in connector system for office and industrial applications.
Sensor Actuator Interfaces:
Harnessing sensors into one central point reduces wiring time along with installation and service costs. Weidmüller can supply SAI distributors in various designs for normal and extreme applications and with four, six or eight connections as required.
Heavy Duty Connectors:
Weidmuller is "mirroring over" their wide range of terminal technology with a superior range of connective technology. The new RockStar® range of heavy duty connectors includes a large range of thermoplastic inserts, tough classic housings and a newly designed stainless steel housing. Creating a totally sealed system, specific cable glands are also available to use in conunction with the RockStar® heavy duty connectors.
FielDPower®:
Reducing total project costs and increasing flexibility, Weidmuller's FielDPower® is a new connection concept for decentralised power distribution. This innovative solution includes PowerBox distribution boxes, maintenance switches, optional plug-in connections for power distribution, prefabricated cable sets and a full range of accessories.
Mann Series Process Instrumentation:
This comprehensive range of process instruments includes Signal Isolators, Signal Transmitters, Indicators and Calibrators. Designed to meet the complex needs of modern process automation applications, this product range is also flexible (through its on-site user configuration capabilities) and robust in its construction.
Analogue Signal Conditioners:
Isolating and protecting process signals, Weidmuller's WAVESERIES takes measurements from the field (i.e. temperature, pressure, level, flow, weight and speed) and brings it to the control room in a simple and easy-to-use format - just plug into your laptop and configure.
Surge Protection Devices:
Absorbing shock and protecting expensive equipment, Weidmuller's high-quality overvoltage protection offers affordable solutions in low-voltage power supplies, instrumentation and control technology, telecommunication and industrial data processing.
Power Supplies:
Found at the core of every switchgear cabinet, transformers and power supplies are key links in the supply of power to automation systems. Weidmüller power supplies are compact in design and can therefore be used in restricted spaces. Along with saving space in the switch cabinet, costs are also reduced. Weidmuller's power supplies have been awarded international approvals for worldwide use in many different applications.
PCB Components:
Being experts in "pins and plastic", Weidmuller's PCB Terminals and Connectors are compact and offer maximum safety, security and performance.
Enclosures:
Protecting circuitry, components and devices, Weidmuller's wide range of enclosures
have been developed to suit a wide range of applications and environments. They also come in a wide range of finishes, including stainless steel, aluminum, painted and plastic.
Installation Products:
Weidmüller offers a wide selection of labels to safely and easily mark equipment and installations. M-Print® PRO is a professional software used with Windows® to create, print and order Weidmuller labels and markers. Weidmüller also offers a variety of printers to quickly and easily print markers and labels. Cable and wire markers, from the SlimFix clip to cable ties are other possible marking solutions from Weidmuller.
