Happy Earth Day! CBT encourages you to do your part in giving back to our planet today and everyday. One way to reduce waste in your plant while cutting energy costs and increasing efficiency is to upgrade to LED lighting. LED lighting uses between one-half and one-third of the energy required by legacy technologies, and in many cases, even less than that.
Improve reliability, product quality, operational efficiency and energy optimization in your plant at a fraction of the time and cost of wired solutions with Panduit’s Wireless SynapSense System.
Power quality problems can disrupt production, damage equipment, and corrupt valuable data. The IP67 SCP-X power supplies from CBT partner, Sola HD, provide the versatility and cost-efficiency to deliver reliable distributed and remote field power to machine controls.
The LED lighting market has been dominated by Chinese manufacturing. The good news in this is that the price for LED fixtures keeps getting better but, on the downside, domestic lighting manufacturers have had to look closely at how they go to market. One of the largest lighting manufacturers in the U.S. recently had to consolidate their operations, citing predatory pricing from China as the cause.
Power is a dynamic aspect in production and automation. Companies lose billions of dollars every year due to voltage sage and power outages. Conditioning your incoming power keeps productivity high and costs down. Using compatible power conversion components from CBT partner, Sola HD, ensures your system reliability.
When servicing electrical equipment, workers must comply with safety regulations what require a voltage verification test to validate the absence of voltage. This process includes a number of stages that can be complex and time-consuming when using hand-held portable test instruments. The VeriSafe™ Absence of Voltage Tester from CBT partner Panduit simplifies this process by automating the voltage verification process.
