Tethered Operator
Interface
The Allen-Bradley MobileView tethered operator
interface is a mobile terminal that allows users to
carry a machine's human-machine interface (HMI)
wherever they go and make real-time adjustments to
out-of-view applications. According to the company,
the product is well suited for maintenance tasks,
machine setup, calibration activities, and other HMI
applications that require operators to see machines.
Inclusion of a hardwired e-stop button and threeposition enabling switch supports applications that
require local safety functionality.
The interface complements the manufacturer's
Allen-Bradley PanelView graphic terminals that offer
operations a range of fixed and mobile options for
different applications. By incorporating the company's
FactoryTalk View Machine Edition (ME) HMI
software, the product lets users develop and re-use
software applications across MobileView and PanelView platforms.
Three cable-length options (from 16.4 ft. to 49.2 ft.)
offer flexibility for different machines and production
lines. Other features include a 10-in. display with
resistive touch screen, a 2-GB internal SD card for
application storage, and a USB 2.0 port for high-speed
data transfer. Software-assignable functions are available as an option, with either a hardwired momentaryilluminated pushbutton or three-position key switch.

Industrial Matrix Drive
U1000 industrial matrix units incorporate a matrix of nine
bi-directional switches that convert a three-phase AC input
voltage directly into a three-phase AC output voltage. This
eliminates the need
for the rectifying and
DC-smoothing circuits that
are used in traditional AC
drive inverters. The result
is a compact drive with
full regenerative capability
and reduced harmonic
distortion. Traditional
drives use regenerative
braking resistors to dissipate
energy as heat, reducing
energy efficiency. The
U1000 industrial matrix
drive allows the return of
regenerative energy directly
back to the power supply,
increasing energy efficiency
and saving money.

Ultrasonic
Probes
The MB.FPA16 and
B.FPA16 ultrasonic probes
feature hard-face, direct-contact surfaces
instead of non-abrasive protective membranes. As a
result, they are said to offer long working life and high
sensitivity without the need for delay lines, providing
the time-saving, comprehensive coverage of phasedarray technology. Typical applications include fast,
accurate, and comprehensive inspection of billets,
welds, and forgings in a wide range of industrial
sectors. The probes are each available at frequencies
of 2 and 4 MHz. Probes have a longitudinal steering
wave range of ±35 deg., and MB.FPA16 probes a
steering range of ±45 deg., providing comprehensive
sector scan coverage without the need for wedges.
