Industry Products

The design of the NITRA rotary actuators is ideal for general material handling and other industrial applications such as conveying, clamping, transferring parts, positioning, and controlling valves. NITRA Pneumatic Grippers are used in a broad range of general automation processes such as pick & place, material transfer, clamping and indexing.

The Protos X "Xpansion" field I/O system is a modular system consisting of a Bus Coupler and its associated input/output terminals.

With IP30 metal cases, these PoE switches have a -40 to +75°C (-40 to +167°F) operating temperature range and are approved for HazLoc environments. The switches are DIN rail mounted and an optional panel mounting bracket is available.

Standard cable ties are available in natural, black and five colors, have rounded edges to avoid cable damage, and are UL 94: V2 self-extinguishing Nylon rated. Stainless steel tooth Nylon cable ties (with added Molybdenum) provide mechanical strength and optimal resistance to corrosion.

The high flex, shielded M12 Ethernet CAT5E patch cables have a TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) jacket designed for typical industrial applications. This Ethernet cable is flame retardant, chemical resistant and resistant to welding sparks.

Filter Fan Plus enclosure fans are offered in five cutout sizes ranging from 3.62 x 3.62 inches to 11.46 x 11.46 inches with 120, 230VAC and 12, 24, 48VDC models available.

Brackets are available for inductive, magnetic, capacitive and ultrasonic proximity sensors, along with photoelectric, laser and fiber optic sensors, and in 3, 4, 5, 6.5, 8, 12, 18 and 30mm sensor sizes

Used in paper and paper converting, food and drug, petrochemical, HVAC, textile, and energy management industries, NCP Series I/P transducers provide operation of pneumatic valve positioners, valve actuators, air cylinders, damper and louver actuators, web tensioners, clutches and brakes.

These Cat5e flexing cables are available in 24 AWG, 2 or 4 twisted pairs with color coded high density polyethylene insulation, and with unshielded or overall braid and foil shields.

These DPG1 gauges have a 4-digit, 2” x 3/4” LCD display and 2-button operation. The display can operate in a continuously on mode, or an auto shut-off mode to lengthen battery life.

Shaft mount gearboxes dimensional drop-in for all major motor makes and are used for reducing output speed, increasing torque, changing drive direction, and/or running two loads from one motor in applications such as belt conveyors, screw conveyors, or material handling.

Five precision limit switch series are available: precision touch with 3 micron or 5 micron accuracy; high precision touch and tool setter with 0.5 micron accuracy; ball plunger with 10 micron accuracy, and high temperature rated with 10 micron accuracy and operating temperatures up to 200°C.

These Micro panels are powered from a Class 2, 12-24 VDC power supply and can also receive power from the serial communications port of most AutomationDirect PLCs or through the USB port when connected to a PC for programming.

The D4-454 and D4-454DC-1 provide all the capabilities of the D4-430, D4-440 and D4-450 CPUs, using updated microprocessor technology allowing the D4-454 to be the CPU of choice for the DL405 family.

ProSense TSDA25 series temperature switches are designed to offer temperature monitoring and control with setup via mechanical adjustment dials.

CX0 Series basic area sensors have a sensing distance of up to 6m and a detection height up to 320mm. CX2 Series advanced area sensors also have a sensing distance of up to 6m with detection height of up to 960mm and offer analog outputs and a blanking function.

These NS-Series NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) certified valves (from GC Valves) are a choice for food and beverage grade potable water applications.

AutomationDirect has added 14 new assorted Wera tools including miniature and insulated screwdriver sets, a driver-bit set, metric and Imperial T-handle and L-key hexdriver sets, an impact driver set and adjustable torque screwdrivers and torque wrenches.

Stride managed switches allow networks to be configured/managed to assure performance and security levels. Stride SE2 series switches provide Modbus TCP and EtherNet/IP management capability.

AEM2G series limit switches have die cast metal housings that are epoxy resin filled for IP67 rating and are equipped with one normally-open and one normally-closed contact.
