Premium low wattage power supplies
Phoenix Contact has added compact AC/DC power supplies ranging from 30W to 100W to the premium QUINT POWER family. With these new low wattage additions, control engineers can select a more precise power supply for
their low-power applications, while still getting advanced QUINT POWER features, such as preventative monitoring and power reserve. All of the new low wattage additions feature QUINT POWER’s power boost of up to 200 percent the nominal current. is allows inductive loads to start without disrupting the output voltage. e power boost provides additional power to an application, which eliminates the need to install an oversized power supply. e new QUINT POWER low wattage additions are the rst small power supplies with con gurable alarming.
e new QUINT POWER low wattage products are available with either push-in or screw connection technology for easy installation. ey are also NEC Class 2 classi ed.

Multi-stage telescopic hydraulic cylinders
Enerpac introduces its new series
of multi-stage telescopic hydraulic cylinders designed for long cylinder strokes in con ned spaces. e telescopic cylinders feature a multi-stage rod built from a series of nested steel tubes of progressively small diameter. e long stroke, multi-stage telescopic cylinder
is particularly suited for extended lift heights when clearance is limited. e nitrocarburized surface treatment inside and out provides side load resistance
and corrosion protection for safe use in harsh conditions. Other features include: three percent side load for full capacity, double- or triple-wear bearing support lifting stages, tilting saddles with ve degrees of maximum tilt, lifting eyes for safe handling and positioning, and steel cylinder base for maximum strength. Enerpac’s telescopic cylinders are available with two or three pistons, have 15 to 35-ton capacity and can lift loads up to 24 inches in a single movement. Enerpac | www.enerpac.com
Connector to resist harsh conditions
HARTING’s new M12 INOX connectors are made of high grade stainless steel to provide superior corrosion resistance in extreme, harsh environments, indoor or outdoor. HARTING tested especially durable materials in developing the M12 INOX. It settled on superior V4A grade stainless steel and adapted its manufacturing processes to suit the raw material. e connectors are made with V4A that’s free of aws to ensure that the connectors meet the IEC 60068-2- 52 severity 4 standard. e M12 INOX
is designed for an ambient temperature range of 40°F to 185°F (-40°C to 85°C), and up to 500 mating cycles, rated for up to 4A and 250V with crimp termination. HARAX termination (IDC technology) also is supported. e M12 INOX is available in A (5 pole male), B (5 pole male and female), and D codes.

Wireless lubrication monitoring
e WLubeMon monitors that the right amount of lubricant is fed in the right time to the bearing – the fundamental criteria for reliable lubrication system. e system works completely independently and is capable to monitor all types of grease lubrication systems including manual lubrication. e meter (LubeMon) has
been available with cable transmission which includes the high cost of cable installation as well as risk of cable damages. e WLubeMon comprises a precision grease meter that measures the amount of lubricant fed into the lubrication point. e meter communicates on a regular basis wirelessly with a Control unit. e system provides alarms for both too high and too low volume as well as statistics and log functions. e Control unit can monitor up to 20 individual meters and has a normal carriage of 75 meters. e condition for each meter is shown clearly on the user-friendly Control unit’s color display. e battery lasts at least 15 years.
