Odis Jones, the CEO of the Detroit Public Lighting Authority, announces the PLA has completed installation of 4,600 LED streetlights ahead of the May 1 deadline. On hand to congratulate the PLA were Police Chief James Craig and Mayor Mike Duggan, as well as Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones.

Detroits Public Lighting Authority has completed the installation nearly 5,000 LED lights with overhead wiring in two pilot area neighborhoods and is expanding into a handful of new Detroit ZIP codes.

Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan and lighting authority CEO Odis Jones announced the progress today and said the authority is on pace to reach its goal of having all the neighborhoods in Detroit lit by 2015.

Odis and his team have done a great job, Duggan said. They are learning as they go and are picking up the pace.

Utility worker Danny West Jr. shows an example of the LED lights that have been installed in two pilot neighborhoods.

Duggan said the authority has brought organization to the street lighting project, following standards that match those in other major cities. The more efficient LED lights are being installed in the neighborhoods at every corner and in the middle of the block.

While the neighborhoods are expected to be lit by the end of next year, Duggan said it will take longer to fix the lights along major thoroughfares and collector streets, which use underground wiring. Those lights are expected to be installed by the end of 2016. Underground wiring is expected to be completed in the two pilot areas by end of July.

I feel very good about where we are right now, the mayor said.

The Roxtec Transit Designer is a free, web-based tool that simplifies both product selection according to needs and requirements and the process of designing, purchasing and installing cable and pipe transits.

Giuseppe Principato is an Instrument Designer in Italy and one of thousands of designers and engineers in more than 80 countries who have already discovered the benefits of the new design software. He works with tasks such as developing material requisitions for bulk materials as well as with preparing cable routing, cable entries, wiring, installation details and job specifications.

"I use the Roxtec Transit Designer every time a multi-cable transit is accepted or requested by our customer," he says. "It is easy to use and understand, and it helps me save time. You can customize cable transits and easily change the arrangement of the transit whenever you need."

"I recommend the Roxtec Transit Designer," says Giuseppe Principato. "I think it can be very helpful globally."

The Roxtec Transit Designer is available free online and on touch screen devices. It helps designers and engineers select the right sealing solution. They can filter by application, certificate and sealing requirements. It saves time and money and can speed up the entire process and design a transit in minutes.

It also reduces risk. The project team gets it all right from the start 3D models, drawings, material lists and installation instructions.

Using the pushbuttons, a user can configure Series IO ultrasonic sensors to use numerous modes, including pump-up/pump-down, rising/declining analog slope and beam width adjustments, among others. The pushbuttons also configure trip points, output function, output behavior, and even the shape of the sound cone, says Marcel Ulrich, Product Manager. High-visibility green and yellow LEDs verify power and target status, and also assist with pushbutton programming.

Series IO ultrasonic sensors have UL, CSA and CCC approval, and feature a completely sealed, IP67-rated housing, making them suitable for use in outdoor application environments. Additional features include two programmable switch outputs, latching mode and window functions, synchronization options and temperature compensation. They are available in switch point and analog versions, both available with 500 mm, or 2, 4 or 6 m sensing ranges. All units are 30 mm diameter by overall length of 93 mm.

For expanded parameter access and programming, Series IO sensors are also configurable through IO-Link and PactWare software. In fact, for users with an IO-Link controller, one of the most significant benefits of IO-Link is the ability to modify and monitor sensor parameters on the fly, says Ulrich.

IO-Link opens up an entirely new dimension of configuration and communication of and with sensors, enabling them to be uniquely customized to the application at hand. IO-Link is based on an intelligent point-to-point connection system on the field level. IO-Link systems offer intelligent sensing without being tied to a proprietary system, and operate independent of the field bus.

An IO-Link master can have one or several ports, with one IO-Link device connected to each port. Thus IO-Link is point-to-point device communication, and allows I/O-signals to be connected to standard systems via the IO-Link master. Additionally, for the use of intelligent sensors, IO-Link offers advantages such as: Simplified installation Replace parallel wiring Replace analog signal types Standardize interfaces and cables Modular machine support

Fieldbus Installations - Benefit from Superior Diagnostics and Increased Plant Uptime with the All New FieldBarrier Isolated Device Coupler from Pepperl+Fuchs

TWINSBURG, OH The Pepperl+Fuchs fieldbarrier revolutionized the fieldbus industry - the all new FieldBarrier R4D0-FB-IA is a diagnostic-enabled isolated device coupler for FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 and PROFIBUS PA instruments. The very compact FieldBarrier is DIN rail mounted in Zone 1/Div.2 environments and connects 8 12 instruments with intrinsic safety in Zone 0 1/Div.1 environments. The FieldBarrier provides advanced fault diagnostics and isolation at the spur, enables live work on the trunk or spurs and supports plug-in surge protectors. The result is simplified installation, improved troubleshooting and maximized plant uptime.

At the spur, advanced fault protection isolates conditions such as short circuit, jabber or bounce, and Advanced Diagnostics detect installation quality issues for optimum segment availability. Internal components such as the terminator are connected without wiring, and connections requiring maintenance are minimized. Critical components are designed with redundancy or monitored for degradation to ensure high product integrity.

"The all new FieldBarrier manages load by turning the Spurs on in sequential order (1, 2, 3, 4) to limit the effects of in-rush current and power supply overload upon segment startup. The entire process takes less than one second per channel," says Kristen Barbour, Product Marketing Manager. "For load shedding, Starting at the highest spur count (12, 11, 10, 9), devices are disconnected one by one in case of an overloaded power supply due to a device fault (ex. water ingress) that would cause a device to draw more current than it would under normal operating conditions. In this case, critical devices would be placed on the first spurs with the least critical devices occupying the last spurs," explains Barbour.

The FieldBarrier also supports diagnostic-enabled accessories such as enclosure moisture ingress sensors and surge protectors. They all transmit fault and diagnostic information to the control room indicating the affected spur.

About Pepperl+Fuchs Pepperl+Fuchs is a world leader in the design, manufacture, application and support of a broad range of robust solutions to varied process automation markets and applications.

A perennial Control and Control Design Reader's Choice Award winner for intrinsic safety equipment and purge & pressurization systems, Pepperl+Fuchs has also been named by Control magazine and the ARC Advisory Group as one of the Top 50 Global Automation Companies.

NEW BERLIN, Wisc. The ABB Low Voltage Products division has introduced a new line of heavy duty safety switches for commercial and industrial applications, meeting the necessary UL98, CSA and NEMA KS-1 standards for the most demanding service-entrance and motor-load applications.

The 600V and 200kA rated switches use the same globally rated bodies as ABBs market leading rotary-style switches, providing increased performance, reliability and safety to the heavy duty market segment. They are the first heavy duty switches in the industry to offer touch-safe visible blades and operating mechanisms that are fully enclosed and protected from dirt and debris. All enclosure types come with gaskets, are free of sharp edges and offer a spacious interior for easier and safer wiring and installation of optional accessories.

The new ABB heavy duty safety switches range from 30 to 1,200 Amperes, and are available as fused and non-fused, with Types 1/12/3R/4X steel or stainless steel enclosures. They are suitable for many heavy commercial and industrial applications including heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), food and beverage processing, material handling and conveyors, water and wastewater treatment, commercial construction, marine, petrochemical processing and mining.

"The new ABB heavy duty switches use the same proven, state-of-the-art switch bodies and technology as our rotary switches, which are generally regarded as the best in the industry," said Russ Janowski, ABB project manager. "We are pleased to extend this technological leadership to the safety switch market."

The EOH Series of the new Heavy Duty Safety Switches line won the "Power - Energy, Power Protection" category of the Control Engineering 2014 Engineers' Choice Awards.

The new ABB safety switches are maintenance-free, unlike competitive switches that require regular lubrication, and are fully field-serviceable, with the switch body, mechanism, fuse-holders, handle and enclosure door easily and quickly replaceable.

Additional features of the new line include: Dual color handles: highly visible red marking clearly indicates when the switch is "ON." Auxiliary contacts: mountable inside switch mechanism; same as those used with ABB rotary style switches, for lower cost and reduced inventory. Optional viewing window: factory installed in enclosure door to safely see status of switch inside without opening door. Fuse adapter kits: field adjustable to accommodate class R, L, J or T fuses.

The new ABB line of heavy duty safety switches is now available from authorized ABB distributors. Visit the Heavy Duty Safety Switches online portal at http://www.abb.com/safetyswitches for more information and a product video.

The long-awaited traffic light on Route 7 at the driveway of The Regency at Ridgefield, Laurel Ridge and Ridgefield Crossings should be up and working soon.

Its going in slowly, First Selectman Rudy Marconi said Monday.

The posts are up. Theres some wiring thats been done. All were waiting for is the delivery of the lights to actually be hung and be connected. I do think its not that far around the corner where well see this completed.

Town Engineer Charles Fisher said Tuesday morning that the contractor on the job, NY-CONN Corp., hadnt given him a date that the light would be put up.

I still do not have confirmation of the actual traffic signal installation, he said.

Fred Greenberg, director of traffic services at BL Cos., the engineering firm on the project, said the basic operation of the signal system would be coordinated with the light at routes 7 and 35 to reduce Danbury Road delays.

Normally, traffic on Route 7-Danbury Road would have a green light. Cars waiting to exit the driveway on the east side of Route 7 would result in a brief red light for Danbury Road being worked into the cycle though not instantaneously in order to maintain Danbury Road flow.

There will also a push button for pedestrians who want a red light on Route 7 to allow them to cross.
