Flat panel computer, Booth 4345. The DisplayPac-18
computer features an 18.1 in., 1280x1024 (SXGA) 256k-color
TFT LCD screen, a Pentium III computing engine with PC/104
expansion and a resistive touchscreen, all housed in a rugged
cast aluminum enclosure. This unit is designed for industrial
and machine control applications that require maximum information
display and powerful computing. Computer Dynamics,

LEDs, Booth 8272. This company designs
and develops LED technology to replace incandescent lamps.
In addition, they manufacture a wide range of front panel
and board-level LED indicators. Their experienced applications
engineers will be available at the booth previewing their
latest LED designs, including new applications for white LED
technology, as well as providing assistance with custom designs.

Custom sensors & heaters, Booth 6777. From
simple inexpensive RTD capsules to complex assemblies of RTDs,
heaters and passive resistance elements, this company offers
bridge completion networks for strain gage applications that
include modulus and temperature compensation components, for
minimum assembly costs. RdF Corp, Hudson, NH.

LED
measurement sensor, Booth5157. The
L-GAGE Q50 light-gauging analog output sensor combines laser-like
performance with LED safety and economy. The output has programmable
sensing window limits and a twin-lens emitter that enables
it to sense non-perpendicular target surfaces accurately.
The self-contained design conserves production space and does
not require a separate controller. Banner Engineering

Vision sensor, Booth 4511. The dual camera capability
of this sensor allows users to perform two simultaneous camera
inspections/measurements, offering the capability of more
expensive PC-based vision solutions at a significantly lower
cost and in a more compact and durable package. The new Intelligent
Light Source enables the user to set light intensity and direction
during inpection routines. Omron Electronics Inc,
Schaumburg, IL. Free info--Circle 704. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-704
Proximity sensor, Booth 338. The FP30000
ferrous proximity sensor is a reed switch device which senses
steel or iron objects without the need for an external magnet.
The sensor can be configured as either normally open or closed,
and can handle typical air gaps of 0.5-in. "make"
and 0.675-in. "break." It has low switching hysteresis
of 0.047 in. when the target travel is perpendicular. Power

PLC plug adapter, Booth 4500. Eliminating the
need for daisy chaining relays together, the PLC-V8 module
provides two power connections. The connection is made to
the PLC via a predefined 14-way ribbon cable with pluggable
connectors on both sides. The only discrete wiring necessary
is the +24 VDC power and the discrete field connections. This
system eliminates expensive relay and 120 VAC output cards.

Remote-operated circuit breaker, Booth 9162.
These circuit breakers consist of a custom-designed remote-operated
motor, which is housed within the circuit breaker molding,
coupled to a C-series hydraulic-magnetic circuit breaker.
The package can be easily mounted into existing panel designs.
The module operates 1 to 3 poles with voltage input between
12 and 80 VDC and start current of under 1A. Carling

Tiny circuit protector, Booth 4942. Class J
time-delay performance is now possible from a circuit protection
device requiring less footprint space than a Midget or Class
CC fuse block. The CUBEFuse's rectangular construction optimizes
and frees up panel space for other components. The "finger-safe"
industrial power fuse uses a recessed blade style terminal
that the company claims is the first of its kind. Cooper
