The Festo CECC Controller with IO-Link Master is a New Automation Solution for the Water Treatment Industry
This single mini controller works with both electric and pneumatic actuators
Happauge, NY December 04, 2012
The Festo CECC is the first mini controller with IO-Link master and CoDeSys V3 for the water treatment industry. The CECC controller is designed to reduce installation times, simplify programming, and enable fast and cost-effective control of sensors and valve actuators - either electric or pneumatic.
The CECC is a control solution for small to mid-sized treatment systems. Despite its modest dimensions, the CECC's variety of interfaces allows it to handle the various electric and pneumatic automation tasks found in a treatment facility. CECC can be easily and reliably integrated into higher-level systems.
Fast diagnostics
A major advantage of the CECC is its IO-Link master with four channels. While the traditional sensor/actuator interface only transmits 0 or 1, the new Festo mini controller with IO-Link master features an almost unlimited data interface. This enables treatment diagnostics down to the I/O connection point for easier troubleshooting.
"Festo took its industrial automation and water industry expertise and developed pneumatic and electric actuation components and control systems optimized for small to medium sized water treatment facilities," said Craig Correia, water industry segment manager, Festo. "This reduces engineering time for retrofits and new installations. It ensures lower labor costs during operation. Our solution lowers risk."

BitFlow Introduces 6th Generation Camera Link Frame Grabber: The Axion
BitFlow has offered a Camera Link frame grabbers for almost 15 years. This latest offering, our 6th generation combines the power of CoaXPress with the requirements of Camera Link 2.0. Enabling a single or two camera system to operate at up to 850 MB/S per camera, the Axion-CL family is the best choice for CL frame grabber. Like the Cyton-CXP frame grabber, the Axion-CL leverages features such as the new StreamSync system, a highly optimized DMA engine, and expanded I/O capabilities that provide unprecedented flexibility in routing. There are two options available; Axion 1xE & Axion 2xE.
The Axion 1xE is compatible with one base, medium, full or 80-bit camera offering PoCL, Power over Camera Link, on both connectors. The Axion 2xE is compatible with two base, medium, full or 80-bit cameras offering PoCL on both connectors for both cameras.
The Axion-CL is a culmination of the continuous improvements and updates BitFlow has made to Camera Link frame grabbers.
