Contrinex M18 Short-Body Photoelectric Sensors and Sensor Tester
AutomationDirect has added a new series of Contrinex M18 photoelectric sensors to their ever-growing selection of discrete sensors, as well as a new sensor tester used with various sensor types to verify operation in the field. The Contrinex M18 sensors are made in the USA and have a short body for easy installation in even […]
AutomationDirect offering igus continuous flexing control and signal cable
The new igus Chainflex CF211 and CF11 series control and signal cable is available from AutomationDirect. It is specifically designed, tested, and manufactured to reliably serve continuous flexing, high mechanical load application requirements. This cable is available in sizes ranging from 26 to 20 AWG, with up to four twisted pairs with overall shield, and […]
HEAD Quabbin 600-V control cable from AutomationDirect
AutomationDirect has added Quabbin 600V control cable to our extensive selection of cable offerings. These cables are ideal for use in control panels, conduits, and where superior electrical properties are required. The smaller diameter design for this cable reduces cost and the space required inside panels and conduits. This cable is available in shielded and […]
8mm photoelectric, inductive proximity and capacitive proximity sensors
AutomationDirect has added several small sensors to the proximity sensor lineup. New rectangular 8mm x 16mm inductive proximity sensors are available in flush and non-flush mounting options, NO or NC outputs as well as NPN or PNP logic. The new 8mm round capacitive proximity sensors are able to detect materials other than metal, in a […]
AutomationDirect adds Quabbin multiconductor cable with twisted triads
Quabbin multiconductor cable with twisted triads has been added to AutomationDirect’s current offering of instrumentation cable. These 300V UL cables with 18 or 20 AWG wire sizes are offered as 1, 2, 4 or 8 overall shielded triads, or individually shielded 2, 4, or 8-twisted triads with an overall shield. The overall shielded cables have […]
Multi-conductor 20 AWG twisted-pair instrumentation cable
Multiconductor instrumentation cable in 20 AWG diameter has been added to AutomationDirect’s current offering of 18 AWG and 16 AWG sizes. Instrumentation cable is typically used in industrial instrumentation, control, alarm, and energy management circuits. These 300-V UL cables have 1, 2, 4, or 8 twisted pairs with overall shield or in 2, 4, or […]
IDEM non-contact guard locking RFID coded safety switches
IDEM non-contact RFID coded safety switches from AutomationDirect are designed to provide interlock protection on hinged, sliding, or removable guard doors. These switches are particularly advantageous when poor guard alignment exists, when high-level anti-tamper is required, where high-hygiene requirements exist, (food industry hose down applications) or where long mechanical life is required. When used in […]
AutomationDirect adds capacitive pushbutton sensor switches and indicators
Captron SENSORswitches are capacitive pushbuttons which are activated without pressure, using a hand or other parts of the body. The buttons have a determinate sensing distance, which may be altered by varying the approach speed and/or damping factor. A quickly approaching finger will achieve a higher sensing distance than a slowly approaching finger. A hand, […]
20 AWG multi-conductor flexible control cable with TPE jacket
Multi-conductor flexible control cable from AutomationDirect is now available in 20 AWG unshielded models with 3 to 25 conductors including ground. Existing gauge sizes are available from 18 AWG to 10 AWG with 3 to 41 unshielded or shielded conductors including ground wire. The cable’s outer jacket is a flexible, premium grade Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) […]
