A signal relay for high inrush current
Developing electronic components is being subjected to enormous pressure to cut costs. The trend to develop ever smaller components continues relentlessly and engineers keep overcoming limitations nobody thought possible. When it comes to miniaturization of electromechanical components of the highest quality, Panasonic Electric Works has always been at the forefront. Regarding precision and reliability, the mechanical technology behind our relays can truly be compared to that of a Swiss watch. The main challenge is to continue to be able to switch a wide range of loads despite smaller and smaller sizes.

FP0R: Here at last!
Empowered by the success of FP0, we are now happy to introduce the FP0R, the next generation of FP0 ultra-compact PLCs. The FP0R offers more memory, higher processing speed, better security, complete compatibility with the FP0, a USB interface and much more. Best of all, the FP0R costs no more than the FP0, not a dollar, not a euro, not a yen!

New High Power PhotoMOS Relays
Panasonic Electric Works' new AQV251G series high power photoMOS relays enable wear-free, reliable switching of AC and DC low-voltage loads of up to 30V (peak) in the smallest of spaces. Especially when electromechanical relays' lifetime is to short to fulfill the application's requirements, the advantages these new photoMOS relays offer come into play. By employing modern MOSFET transistors for the output of the AQV251G, it is possible to realize a typical ON-resistance of just 0,035Ω. Because there is negligible loss at the output, the maximum continuous load current at room temperature can be specified with a current of 3.5A.

Imagechecker PV500 - Setup now available with PC software!
Up until now, a keypad was used to configure the compact, high-speed machine vision Imagechecker PV500 from Panasonic. Thanks to the new software PVWIN, you can now set up the PV500 using a PC or notebook. Thanks to its attractive and intuitive graphical user interface, this Windows software allows even inexperienced users to quickly program efficient checking routines. Communication to the PV500 hardware can take place either via USB or Ethernet.

New, thin infrared built-in sensor for close-range detection
To complete its product range for MA motion sensors, Panasonic Electric Works has added an even more compact sensor to its existing portfolio. With surface fitting dimensions of just 20.0 x 10.0mm and a height of 12.7mm, this sensor is approximately 35% smaller than previous models. Detection ranges of 50, 100 and 150mm as well as NPN and PNP open collector outputs are available. Of course, existing features have not been compromised, and the user can still choose between an internal or external trigger.
