Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing - Katy, Texas, US
For over 25 years, Elcon Instruments have been a world leader in intrinsic safety (I.S.) interface techniques for the process industry. 2001, Elcon Instruments joins the Pepperl+Fuchs Group of companies with a mission to provide our customers with a diversified range of specialised Intrinsic Safety and general purpose I/O Interface products. These products will be supported by the largest and most effective international sales and technical support team in our market sector of process automation. Company milestones include: In 1974, the design and certification of what is thought to be the worlds first intrinsic safety galvanic isolator, a technique now widely used as the worlds standard IS interface method. Late 1980s, Elcon pioneered a new plug in IS interface concept using multi channel modules plugged onto a PCB termination board. The board incorporated multi core cable connectors, customised to match the I/O cards of the worlds major process control systems. This innovative concept provided major cabinet and cable cost savings. In the early 1990s, Elcon introduced the first integrated HART® interface solution, using a Multiplexer module which mounted directly on field wiring termination board for both I.S. and non I.S. signals. This permitted the use of PC based software for field device set up, monitoring and maintenance, of all HART® field devices. Today Elcon is playing an important role in the development of a new family of I/O interface solutions for the emerging Fieldbus environment. Currently under development are strong new product programmes, no longer restricted to IS techniques for use with hazardous area field devices, but also extending to provide "Complete I/O interface solutions". With out new parent company, Pepperl+Fuchs, the opportunities for an enlarged product portfolio have considerably increased. This will allow us to provide an even better service for our customers.
