Siemens is introducing SINAMICS G120X, a new generation of cost-effective, reliable and easy-to-use variable frequency drive presents a solution for fan, pump, water and wastewater applications mainly for infrastructure sector but also for the industry sector. SINAMICS G120X Offers wide power range from 0.75 to 630 kW/ 1 to 700 HP in 200-240V, 380-480V and 500-690V voltage classes and protection degrees, it can operate in a temperature range from -4 to +140° F (-20 to +60° C) with any standard motor, including synchronous reluctance motors (SRM). The optimum solution due to its out-of-the-box concept makes setup time fast and extremely simple for operation.

Ease of use

The SINAMICS G120X offers outstanding “out-of-the-box” ease of use, the colored panel of intelligent operator panel allows easy identification of faults and alarm messages, the Smart Access Module via Wi-Fi enables easy setup at up to 50m distance range.

Connectivity and integration

The SINAMICS G120X offers PROFINET, Profibus1, EtherNet/IP, BACnet MS/TP1 & Modbus RTU1 as built-in communication, it allows easy PLC connectivity as a standard, besides, it is compatible with PCS 7 distributed control system1 and engineering tools to ensure easy and consistent communication through the system.

Reliable, flexible and efficient

Integrated DC link choke reduces costs by eliminating need for input reactor, the 3C3 coating2,3 + extended operating temperatures -20 ˚C to 45/ 60˚C enable operation in harsh environments and the integrated safe torque off SIL3 makes it easy to achieve safety standard.

Ready for digitalization

Sinamics G120X converters can be linked to MindSphere over Sinamics Connect 300, offering users the opportunity to analyze valuable operating data gathered from the converter, the drive train and the machine using the MindSphere app Analyze MyDrives. This enables the visualization and analysis of status information, providing users with valuable data which can be used as the basis for optimizing processes and maintenance strategies.

Do you place emphasis on maximum availability and cost efficiency along with optimum asset management? Siemens can provide you with a unique offer based on the SINAMICS G120X: In the case of service, within a period of up to 7 ½ years, you can have your converter repaired or replaced.

Your advantages:

· Security of service for up to 7 ½ years – half a year is free, six years will be charged for at a fair lump-sum price

· Maximum protection of your investment

· Experts support you over the complete converter lifecycle

Register your SINAMICS G120X online and obtain Siemens' service package free-of-charge for the first six months: siemens.com/drive-registration

DCS Festo Didactic at the Forefront of Developing Canadas Future Workforce 1 400x275

With Canadian manufacturing suffering from a growing labour shortage, the participation of industry in skills development is emerging as a vital component in hiring and retention.

The needs are stark: The Canadian Exporters and Manufacturers Association says almost 40% of its members have jobs they can’t fill. Five years from now, 60% expect to be short-staffed, especially when it comes to skilled trades. Statistics Canada forecasts the country’s labour force growth rate will remain below 0.2% for the rest of the decade, below replacement levels.

This growing shortage is affecting companies of all sizes. Already, some manufacturers acknowledge losing out on contracts because they can’t find the manpower to fulfill them.

In reality, the challenge is two-fold: to replenish and expand the workforce to help close the gap between the number of job seekers and vacancies through 2030 when the last baby boomers reach age 65, and ensure workers get opportunities throughout their careers to upgrade or add to their skillset as current technologies evolve and new ones emerge. Festo, through Festo Didactic, one of the world leading provider of equipment and solutions for technical education, intends to help Canada meet this challenge on both fronts. In essence, the approach Festo has always taken is that the learning never stops.

DCS New Emerson Valves Deliver Proportional Flow Control Performance 1 400x275

Emerson recently introduced the ASCO™ Series 209 proportional flow control valves, which offer the highest standards of precision, pressure ratings, flow characteristics and energy efficiency available in a purpose-built, compact architecture. With this combination of size and performance, Series 209 valves allow users to precisely regulate the flow of fluid in a wide range of devices that require exacting performance, like those found in the medical equipment, food and beverage, and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) industries. 

Accuracy, response time and repeatability are critical in high-precision flow control applications, such as controlling tool speed in dental chairs, the flow of steam in coffee makers, water flow in cooling systems and hydrogen flow in fuel cells. Series 209 valves have low hysteresis (less than or equal to 5%), excellent repeatability (less than or equal to 1%) and high sensitivity (less than or equal to 0.2%) that contribute to their precision.
