15-09-2021 | Mouser Electronics | Design & Manufacture

Mouser has a new eBook produced in collaboration with Amphenol Corporation, highlighting the many applications of the IIoT as well as the technical challenges in developing IIoT solutions. In 'Enabling the Industrial IoT Revolution', subject matter experts from the companies provide detailed insights into topics including industrial data centres, HVAC systems, and indoor air quality systems as well as smart manufacturing intelligent automation, construction, and mining.

The new eBook provides six in-depth articles exploring some of the most captivating challenges facing IIoT design. Readers can experience extensive graphic resources, including a valuable infographic highlighting interconnect solutions from Amphenol RF, perfect for smart construction and mining. The infographic showcases products such as IP-rated waterproof and ruggedised RF connectors that facilitate wireless connectivity in the harshest environments. Also, the company’s leading-edge power solutions, such as the RADSOK Power-to-Board connectors, provide many options for high-current (up to 200A), single-point connections in a compact footprint design that improve heat dissipation at the pin-and-socket interface, which lowers temperature rise and lessens potential failures.

The eBook also highlights other IIoT solutions from the company, such as the Amphenol ICC Minitek MicroSpace crimp-to-wire connector system, a vibration-tolerant product known for its high locking strength that supports a wide variety of industrial applications, such as robotics, navigation systems, automated guided vehicles, and industrial cameras, as well as factory lighting and HVAC. Their MCP’s PCB antennas provide an omnidirectional radiation pattern in a band range of 410MHz to 5.85GHz, making them an excellent choice for IIoT applications such as M2M communications, smart lighting, and smart meters.

Crucial to any IIoT system design is the requirement for sensors. The company's i2s’ Climate Control Pressure Transmitter sensors are particularly created to measure the pressure of many fluids, including refrigerant, process fluid, and hydronic fluid systems. The hermetically sealed sensors, with a high-quality stainless steel measurement element in a robust aluminium case, are intended to offer reliable long-term performance in many industrial and HVACR applications.
