Control System Components

Carlo Gavazzi’s Series Ultrasonic Sensors are designed for both distance measurement and object detection in tough environments. Discrete output types are available for presence and absence detection, and are ideally suited for detecting objects,such as transparent objects, that cannot be reliably detected by other sensors. Among our sensors range, analogue output types are available for applications requiring a measurement of the target object, such as detecting the level of fluid in a tank. The Windows version also allows settings to be saved and downloaded to multiple devices.

Carlo Gavazzi offers a large range of Photoelectric Sensors which are used extensively on packaging machinery, automatic door systems, and plenty of industrial applications. Our sensors are available in diffuse reflective, background suppression, reto-reflective, polarized, through beam, clear object detection, and colour recognition. We also offer a range of fibre-optic type sensors for applications where a conventional sensor cannot be used (space restrictions, temperature, atmosphere) Our range include VP series optical types (ideal for use in level applications). They are available in different housing materials which allow their use in various industrial cleaning solutions.

Carlo Gavazzi's patented Tripleshield Capacitive Sensors have become the standard all other manufacturers are measured against. All Tripleshield sensors are tested to withstand electrostatic discharges up to 40 KV, line transients up to 4 KV, and airborne noise (ie. cellular phones) up to 15 V/m. Furthermore, some models have built-in humidity compensation. Capacitive sensors will detect most materials - conductive and non-conductive. This makes them ideal for level detection in raw plastic delivery systems and in agricultural applications.

Carlo Gavazzi offers a comprehensive range of Inductive Sensors - primarily used to detect metal parts and objects. These sensors are used extensively in packaging and plastics machines, assembly lines and conveyor systems. They are available in a wide variety of styles and feature both digital (SCR, transistor) and analogue outputs.

Carlo Gavazzi offers a comprehensive range of electro-mechanical relays for industrial automation. Gavazzi offers relays for switching loads up to 30 Amps with a wide selection of coil voltages. They are available in plug-in and PCB mounting. Many Gavazzi relays come standard with a push-to-test button as well as an LED indicator. They are frequently used in control panels, in HVAC control systems, pump and compressor control, and electronic and consumer products. They are typically used to switch loads such as heaters, lights, and motors.

Carlo Gavazzi offers a comprehensive range of Solid State Relays (SSR’s) featuring direct copper bonding technology for increased life and reliability. SSR’s are used extensively in the plastics, packaging, food processing, and HVAC industries - primarily for temperature control. Other applications include lighting and pump switching. Many of our relays feature horsepower ratings, that make them suitable for controlling motorized dampers in HVAC control systems.

Carlo Gavazzi offers a complete range of Push Buttons and Pilot Lights. Our push buttons - really easy to install and use - meet all application requirements of panel builders and industrial equipment manufacturers. Carlo Gavazzi also offers a broad selection of pilot lights featuring LED lights with a service life of more than 100,000 hours. In addition to a wide selection of colours, there are various lens types and styles, that make them suitable for most applications.We even offer dual colour indicators and, to top off our range, buzzers and flashing buzzers

In addition to the obvious need to improve the performance of the measuring instruments to keep them up-to-date with state of the art technology, it is important to offer user friendly instruments easily and quickly adaptable to the applications and management needs of the customers. To meet these needs we offer a new modern range of instruments which, according to the various criteria of signal processing and displaying, can be modified into transducers, indicators or controllers

Carlo Gavazzi's range of solutions for energy efficiency monitoring includes all the necessary hardware and software components to set-up and operate a system in charge of: - Measuring energy, electrical, analog and digital variables - Storing, displaying and transmitting data for remote monitoring - Aggregating, organizing and managing information of both single and multi-site installations

Carlo Gavazzi offers a comprehensive range of monitoring controls for monitoring of phase loss, incorrect phase sequence, phase unbalance, over/under current, over/under load, over/under frequency, and over/under voltage. Our products include current monitors, voltage monitors, power monitors, phase loss relays, and current transformers. These monitors are used in a wide range of applications for protecting motors against the damaging effects of single phasing and overloads (elevators, compressors, pumps, air conditioning systems, mixing tanks). They are also used for monitoring instrumentation signals (4-20mA, 0-10V), verification of machinery operation, detection of broken heater elements, monitoring of lights in critical areas (runway lights at airports), monitoring of ventilation fans, and in building automation systems.

CARLO GAVAZZI presents the most complete range of power supplies for the automation industry. To select them you only have to choose the output voltage and the output power. Power supplies are also available with 3 phase input specifically tailored for the automation industry. These products, as well as the single phase power supplies and the Enclosed type, feature very compact design, high efficiency and overall high specifications. The entire range carries full certification and offers a wide range of universal inputs and screw terminals connection.
