The CompactRIO controller is based on Freescale's MPC5200 processor, Wind River VxWorks real-time operating system (RTOS), and the NI CompactRIO platform. The MPC5200, which is programmed with the National Instruments LabVIEW Real-Time Module, gives the cRIO-9012 controller up to 4X processing performance and nearly 2X lower power consumption.

SimSci-Esscor and DNV have developed a link between SimSci-Esscor's VISUAL FLOW safety system design software and DNV Software's PHASTFX flammable effects software module. The link allows engineers in process plants to quickly and easily estimate a wide range of flammable effects during design work. With the link, users can pass stream information at the base of the flare to PHASTFX for initializing one of PHASTFX's jet flame routines.

Building Case (BC) electronic housing system features uniform compact height and allows a variety of PCB-design options in mounting, component height, networking and termination. The system was designed primarily for the building automation industry, where control manufacturers frequently encounter limited panel depth.

InRAx Wireless Ethernet/IP Communication Module (MVI56-WA-EIP) acts as a wireless bridge, enabling remote connectivity between a ControlLogix processor and 802.11 wireless devices including PCs, Laptops, radio modems, and other modules. It allows programming over the backplane and acts as a server to RSLinx, allowing for multiple programs such as RSLogix5000 and/or RSView products to communicate simultaneously with the processor.

iChipSec CO2128 secure Internet Protocol (IP) communication controller chip reduces the cost and speeds the design of new IP-enabled terminals. The chip also includes many hardware enhancements that ensure high-throughput by offloading IP and network security protocols from the host processor. CO2128 supports a wide range of Internet protocols and communication drivers for moving data over 10/100BaseT LANs, 802.11b/g WiFi, cellular and dial-up networks.

The 2500 is TÜV approved for SIL-1 to SIL-3 applications and can be used as a stand-alone safety controller, as a distributed control system for critical applications, or both. It uses voting routines to ensure the process is protected and-equally important-the 99.9999% (6 NINES) availability ensures that expensive downtime is eliminated.

Model 773-Ex e Series of compact junction box connectors for use in hazardous locations is an expansion of the WALL-NUTS product line - a push-wire replacement of twist type connectors for the electrical contractor market. The product is approved for use in Class I, Zone 1 and 2 hazardous locations according to the ATEX and UL Ex (for both US and Canada) standards.

MIC-3321 series single and double layer 3U CompactPCI CPU cards combine the performance of Intel’s Mobile Pentium M 760 2.0 GHz processor, flexible integration with 915GM chipset, and the I/O Controller Hub ICH6. The MIC-3321 series are designed with direct-soldered CPU and memory, providing less weight and higher shock vibration resistance than traditional socket devices.

The UL508-listed XCSF3 3 amp, and XCSF5 5 amp, power supplies have a universal voltage input of 90- 264 Vac. These power supplies feature pluggable wiring connections for easy installation in addition to short circuit, overload, over temperature and input/output over voltage protection. The power supplies are also available in parallel and alarm signal versions. A 10% discount applies in November. .

The Magnum DX line of Serial Device routers provides intelligent Serial-to-IP/Ethernet protocol services that integrate the large installed base of devices that use Serial data protocols for SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) and remote device console access.
