Remote I/O System

Increased safety in the deep-drilling industry in order to protect human lives is the major motivation behind National Oilwell Varco (NOV), a Texas company. As a manufacturer and developer of machinery for oil and gas drilling operations, NOV wants to prevent accidents through the use of equipment with automated controls, and make the workplace more ergonomic. They depend on reliable technology from WAGO.

The American company, Ageto Energy, supports energy-independent island grids with microgrid controllers that monitor and control the voltage, charge and temperature in a battery storage system. The WAGO PFC200 is used to bridge communication between the CAN-based battery storage system and the Modbus TCP/IP input on the microgrid controller.

Making the earth a bit cleaner is the motivation for the engineers in Papaflessas, Greece. With this motivation – and the support of WAGO – even the highly complex task of controlling an entire wind farm is fun.

Electricity is one possible ignition source that carries enormous risk in underground coal mining: Even a small spark can ignite an explosion. Manufacturers of machines for underground use must therefore ensure that there are no ignition risks in their systems. That is why Hazemag & EPR relies on controllers and other products from WAGO.

Tankers at airports around the world have to bring their A game every day. Closely timed flight schedules and strict safety regulations determine the everyday workload for vehicles and drivers. The Brazilian firm Rucker specializes in the equipping of airplane tanker trucks, and just completed a large project for Infraero, Brazil's national airline.

Connect to higher-level control systems with WAGO’s compact 750 Series I/O modules. With over 500 modules and 16 fieldbus options, these modules are ideal for system integration at any level.

The same flexibility and performance found in the 750 series is also available in WAGO’s 753 Series I/O modules. The 753 has a removable, coded wiring connector on the front of the module so there is no need to extract an entire node.

WAGO’s 750 Series XTR is built to withstand the elements. Whether it is extreme temperatures, vibrations, or impacts, these modules provide rugged reliability with the same characteristics as the original 750 series.
