It’s only Thursday, but my mind seems to be acting like it’s Friday!

Monday, March 22, 2010 by Amy Becker

My mind seems to think it is Friday. I have been trying really hard to work today, but it seems every time I touch something, I do something wrong. How do I fix my internal clock? Actually, what I would like to do is turn back the clock and start over from about 11:00 am. Anyone out there know how to do that? 

Well, I don’t know how to do that, but I do know how to help you keep your business on it’s schedule. We sell the Autonics LE7M-2 timer series. This timer can maintain programs for recurring weekly or annual events. It allows for Up to 12 holiday/non-operation day settings. It will automatically adjust for Daylight Savings Time. (Hey, wait a minute… Could that be why I am so confused today? I think I will use it as my excuse.) Marshall Wolf Automation is an Industrial Automation distributor and we sell several types and brands of timers. Visit us at www.wolfautomation.com to see out complete list of timers and how they may benefit your particular situation.
 

As well as timer we sell, Safety Relays, Industrial Stack Lights, Customer Control Panels and countless other items to fill all of your industrial needs. If you have any questions on any of our products you can contact us at sales@wolfautomation.com or 800-325-WOLF. We will be happy to assist you in any way we can.

The Next Wave in Energy Management Solutions...

Friday, August 28, 2009 by Jonathan Wolf

It's high tide in the world of Energy Management Solutions. With everything changing in the way we view our energy needs, and the focus on renewable energy, we are surfing our way in to the market place with our cutting edge products.

Take the Panasonic KW series for example, The KW series is the solution for maintenance and control in applications involving energy saving and environmental protection. It supports 4 types of dedicated CT sensors to cover a wide measurement range. Its basic functions have been expanded for easier operation: Instantaneous electric power display, voltage and current display, built-in hour meter functions, and more.

Why bother with traditional AC Digital Panel meters or DC Digital Panel meters when you can have it all.

It is available on our website. Click Here.
                    

Carlo Gavazzi is also catching the wave! The Carlo Gavazzi EM26 Energy Analyzer Performs extended consumption analysis while also keeping electrical parameters under control.

                   
FInd it here on our website.

The EM26 is a three-phase energy analyzer with built-in configuration joystick and LCD data displaying; particularly indicated for active and reactive energy metering and for cost allocation.

The meter can be provided with digital outputs that can be used for pulse proportional to the active and reactive energy being measured or for alarm outputs, or for remote control.

The nature of our voltage mains has changed greatly in the last 10 years. With the proliferation of non-linear loads such as inverters, power converters, switch-mode power supplies, and computers, there is a growing concern for the quality of our power sources.

Problems often arise which can cause equipment failure or shutdown resulting in significant costs and loss of production. Power quality problems can result in failure of compensation capacitors, tripping of fuses, over-heating of transformers and motors, failures of electronic equipment, and high neutral currents.

Energy costs are becoming a significant expense in most processes. With increased energy unit costs, decreased generating capacity, and the environmental concerns with the burning of fossil fuels, it is important that companies reduce their electrical consumption.

At Marshall Wolf Automation, with our Extended Vendor Network offer a broad range of power quality meters and transducers which give early warning of power quality problems - allowing preventative action to be taken before a major failure results. Most of our products offer relay outputs that can be used to immediately shut down a piece of equipment if a certain threshold is reached. Another option is to connect to your PLC or PC control system to provide plant wide monitoring of power quality using 4-20 mA current signals or via RS485 or Ethernet communications.

Marshall Wolf Automation also offer a number of software products for monitoring of a network of meters and transducers. This allows at-a-glance viewing of your complete power system.
