[Free White Paper] Technical Column - Types and Uses of IoT Sensors (Series Part 1: Sensors and IoT Devices)

The user-friendly and cost-effective CONPROSYS nano accelerates the digital transformation of industrial systems.

The CONPROSYS® nano series is a modular remote I/O system that allows for flexible combinations of I/O. It can be used as a PC-based remote I/O system utilizing Windows/Linux computers or as a simple remote I/O system with a PLC as the master. This low-cost remote I/O device offers overwhelming cost performance, focusing on essential functions without compromising usability. It adopts a modular design that allows for a node configuration based only on the necessary number of I/O points, minimizing waste. The CONPROSYS® nano series also provides a rich variety of I/O modules that can convert all types of signals into information, and it features an environmental design that supports a wide temperature range of -20 to 60°C. Its compact housing is designed for space-saving and can be installed in narrow locations without restriction. 【Main Features】: ● A rich variety of I/O modules that convert all types of signals into information. ● Modular design that allows for unit configuration based only on necessary functions and I/O points. ● Ethernet-based low-cost remote I/O that focuses on essential functions without compromising usability. ● Environmental design that can be installed in any location, with a space-saving design suitable for narrow spaces.

Start with 50,000 yen for IoT, offering a one-stop solution from IoT gateways to HMI, VTC functions, and cloud services!

The CONPROSYS series provides a one-stop solution for the necessary IoT gateway, software (monitoring functions, simple processing and control functions, etc.), and upper servers that make up M2M/IoT solutions. It collects input and output from various sensors and PLC data through the controller, allowing data to be accumulated on the upper server. The upper server also offers various software development kits, including Contec cloud services, on-premises data collection software, and extended SDKs. Additionally, users can build monitoring screens using the HMI software standardly equipped in the controller. Furthermore, various task processing can be incorporated using the built-in VTC function, without the need for knowledge of programming languages or special development environments.

Regarding the "quotation" used at the forefront of sales activities: "Do we really need to save everything when we revise it to Ver.1, Ver.2, etc., every time the amount or specifications change?" "Should we also keep the data from other companies that were not selected in competitive quotations?" Have you ever wondered about these questions? The Electronic Bookkeeping Act strictly demands the "authenticity" of data, but saving every process is a significant burden for the field. This time, we will clearly explain the boundaries of the preservation obligation in a case study format, incorporating the latest interpretations from the National Tax Agency's Q&A. *You can read the full text from the note in the "Related Links." [Contents of this article] 1. The boundary of the preservation obligation lies in "sending to external parties." - Items sent externally are "generally required to be preserved." - Items not sent externally have "no preservation obligation." 2. The sender's judgment: "Is it linked to a transaction?" 3. The recipient's judgment: "The perspective of the 'Corporate Tax Act' is important." ■ Note! "Version revisions" and "corrections/deletions" are different things. ■ A smart way to achieve reliable "version management." ■ Summary

● This is a leak testing device for small electronic components that does not use fluorinated inert liquids (PFAS-free). ● There is no longer a need for unstable visual confirmation through liquid immersion testing. It adopts a quantitative testing method that allows for stable pressure leak testing. ● It is a tabletop leak testing device specifically for gross leaks, with accuracy equal to or greater than that of liquid immersion testing. ● The detectable range is approximately 1×10⁻² Pa·m³/s to 1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s (varies depending on the target product). ● It is suitable for sealed structures ranging from a few millimeters to a maximum of 80 × 70 mm.

Fukuda's new flagship model. - Masterless type (FLA-0200 series) - General type (FLA-0201 series) Two models of air leak testers. With the mastering correction function, high-precision measurements can be achieved in a short time. Please take a look at the catalog.

What is a sealed product air leak test device? It is an air leak test device that inspects the airtightness, sealing performance, and waterproofness of electrical equipment and packaging containers (cosmetics, food). It tests for leaks in products such as smartphones, tablet devices, keyless switches, wristwatches, bottle containers, and cosmetic containers (eyeliner, mascara).

【Leak testers and leak test-related products provided by Fukuda】 Please take a look at our catalog! ★ Millimeter-wave radar & LiDAR leak tester: The air leak tester "FL-610" for controlling the separate type leak tester air pressure unit "LPU-300." ★ Leak tester for simultaneous measurement of workpieces: Measures two workpieces with one unit. By comparing two at the same time, you can increase the number of operations. ★ Electric air regulator for blood pressure monitor pressure confirmation: Excellent in repeatability of pressure control and pressure adjustment. ★ Leak tester for automotive lighting: Can be tested at low pressure without affecting the workpiece (item under inspection). ★ Air leak tester conversion box/cable: Peripheral equipment for air leak testers. Used when replacing old models with current products or when changing the model of current products. ★ Waterproof inspection testing device: A device for testing the waterproofness (equivalent to IPX7,8) and sealing of sealed products.
