Lainate, November 2019 - Carlo Gavazzi Automation, the international electronics group with activities in the design, manufacture and marketing of electronic equipment, today presents its new series of solid state relays.
In this 4th industrial revolution, machinery needs to evolve to become more autonomous. For this to happen, the various components within the machine need to be able to communicate with each other to exchange data. The NRG series makes it possible for the solid state relays to communicate with the main controller in the machine. The NRG is a platform consisting of bus chains. Each bus chain is made up of a NRG controller (NRGC) daisy chained to a number of solid state relays (RG..N). The NRGC interfaces with the machine controller through Modbus RS485.
The communication interface on the NRG series enables real-time monitoring of each solid state relay (status and read-out of parameters). With this new release, it is now possible to control the switching of the RG..N via this communication interface. Apart from ON/OFF switching, it is also possible to control the RG..Ns by power control.
“Machine builders can remain globally competitive if the users needs for increased machine uptime, lower scrap rates and high production overall equipment efficiency are satisfied”, Dorianne Grech International Product Manager says. “Real-time monitoring with the NRG series enables OEMs to offer machines that improve operational efficiencies and make reactive maintenance predictive and preventive. This additional development on the NRG platform benefits OEMs by having reduced PLC output modules, much simpler wiring and flexibility to adapt the switching of the solid state relay to suit the specific process. This solution allows our customers to accommodate, in turn, their customer needs whilst remaining competitive.”
Developed in our competence centre in Malta, the NRG has been designed to suit any heating application where precise temperature control is crucial to guarantee the quality of the end product and potential machine stoppages are predicted. Typical applications are plastics injection machines, semiconductor manufacturing and glass tempering machines.

MC36C SAFETY MAGNETIC SENSOR SERIES: HIGH PERFORMANCE IN COMPACT SIZE
Suitable for monitoring safety gates in industrial harsh environments.
- PR_MC36C_1910.pdf (PDF - 108.63 Kb)
Lainate, October 2019 - Carlo Gavazzi Automation, the international electronics group with activities in the design, manufacture and marketing of electronic equipment, today is proud to introduce its new family of non-contact safety magnetic sensors.
The new MC36C series of magnetically-coded REED safety magnetic sensors is the ideal solution to monitor the position of sliding, hinged and removable safety guards, especially in dirty and dusty environments.
When connected to a safety module, it is suitable for safety applications up to PL e/Category 4 according to EN ISO 13849-1.
The MC36C sensors’ wide actuation range allows the use in specific applications where great tolerances are required, for example when doors are imprecisely aligned.
“Thanks to its high flexibility, the MC36C safety magnetic sensor series represents the best choice for non-contact detection in safety applications, where space is limited,” Aldo Caputo, International Product Manager, says. “With the launch of this new complete range of sensors it is our intention to strenghten Carlo Gavazzi’s presence wherever safety in industrial environments is required.”
