Control solutions for the water industry

31 March 2009

Festo is continuously expanding its range of products for the process industry and will be showing a raft of solutions for the water industry at IWEX 2009. The additions to the company’s CPX series of multifunctional electrical terminals will be on show, including a EtherCat real-time Ethernet communications module, a series of digital and analogue I/O modules, and a intelligent control module known as the CPX-CMXX, which provides a PLC-compatible interface for multi-dimensional axis control.

Festo will also be launching a quarter-turn pneumatic actuator. Developed at the specific request of customers in the water industry, the actuator uses rack and pinion drive technology and incorporates a number of unique features, including adjustable end positions – which makes it ideal for use with butterfly valves.
