Murr Elektronik: Emparro ACCUcontrol – Keeping Machines Alive

MC-8-Murr-EmparroACCUcontrol-400.jpg

July 16, 2021

The Emparro ACCUcontrol UPS module rounds out the high-performance Emparro power supply system. In the event of a power failure, it automatically switches to battery operation and prevents machine downtimes. Investing in a UPS system frequently pays for itself the first-time a stoppage is avoided.

External lead batteries with a capacity of up to 40 Ah ensure a long-lasting bridging period. The UPS module is available for 20 A or 40 A systems. Emparro ACCUcontrol can be assembled without the use of tools and is maintenance free. Because it is only 65mm wide, the 20A model needs very little space in the control cabinet.

Reliable power supply in the event of faults

  •    –   Machine downtimes are prevented through uninterrupted switching to battery operation in power failures
  •    –   Maximum lifetime through temperature-controlled battery charging
  •    –   High operational reliability through comprehensive control and diagnosis options with predictive maintenance
  •    –   A shutdown function for IPCs prevents data loss with easy-to-use computer software

Access Management for Your Plant and Machinery

With PILZ’s “Identification and Access Management” portfolio, they offer you a comprehensive range of products, solutions and software for the implementation of safety as well as security tasks. Below you’ll discover more about potential applications, from simple authentication to complex access permissions, and access management through to safe operating mode selection, maintenance safeguarding and safeguarding of data and networks. Experience safety and security in one system!

This solution ensures that a machine cannot resume operation while people are still in the danger zone. The maintenance safeguarding system “key-in-pocket” is designed for machines with danger zones, which are protected by a safety fence and which staff need to access – robot cells for example. In comparison with conventional lockout-tagout (LOTO) systems, maintenance safeguarding with the key-in-pocket solution is implemented via RFID keys with corresponding permissions and a safe list in the PILZ controllers. As a result, it provides a purely electronic restart protection and makes both mechanical interlocking devices and warning tags redundant.
