Process control systems + cloud applications running on virtual machines enable flexible remote access to a wide range of systems. Conventional KVM systems are reaching their limits here. They are being replaced with Thin Clients.
When it comes to safely enclosing electric units that require large amounts of space and energy, pressurised enclosures in accordance with the Ex p type of protection offer a number of advantages.
Will remote I/O systems do away with the need for Ethernet-APL?
Technologies like Ethernet-APL enable continuous Ethernet communication to extend into hazardous areas for the first time. Does this mean that established technologies like remote I/O are now obsolete?
Electrical equipment in hazardous areas has to be designed so that it does not create any sources of ignition. Read on to find out more about the most common types of protection and the benefits they offer.
Simple handling in operation, a high level of protection and flexibility are just some of the benefits of intrinsic safety. By following a few basic rules, you can make getting started with this degree of protection even easier.
