2004 was WAGO Corporation's 25th year of creating Innovative Connections for the electrical and electronic industries. To view archived copies of WAGO's 2004 press releases, please click below.
The new 759-333 WAGO-IO-PRO CAA (CoDeSys Automation Alliance compatible) programming software for the WAGO 750 Series of Programmable Fieldbus Controllers (PFC) and the 758 Series Industrial PCs (IPC) software is fully compliant with the IEC 61131-3 open programming standard - across the entire suite of languages, data types and operators. Now with the WAGO-IO-PRO CAA users can select various other Automation Alliance Partners platforms/components, develop the network, and program them all with a single software solution from WAGO that is CoDeSys based and ready for future upgrades that can be easily downloaded right from the website.
The compact design of the 788 Series plug-able DIN rail mount relay, at just 15mm wide, along with the flexibility to switch high currents for a wide variety of input voltages are just two of the unique features resulting in tremendous application benefits.
The WAGO 750-841 Series Ethernet TCP/IP Programmable Fieldbus Controller (PFC) provides the solution to growing demand in a PFC by the manufacturing and process control industry with new functions such as double the data memory to 256kb, the addition of a multi-tasking operating system, and the ability to complete on-line programming changes
WAGO Corporation is pleased to announce a Quantum Leap in spring pressure connection technology. The new TOPJOBâS series of DIN rail mounted terminal blocks utilizes the revolutionary CAGE CLAMPâS spring pressure connection technology. This innovative connection technology allows solid wire, tin-bonded wire or ferruled stranded wire to be connected by simply inserting the wire into the clamping mechanism (no tools required), as well as connecting all wire types via a simple screwdriver actuation - just like the original CAGE CLAMPâ.
The WAGO Series 285 Power Clamp is the first spring pressure terminal block to exceed the 2 AWG conductor size, making it an excellent choice for medium voltage power panels and large conductor control panels.
Designated the 859 Series, these DIN rail mounted DC-DC converters provide the industry with the smallest package beginning at just 6.2mm wide. Offered in four voltage ranges (custom voltages available on request) these converters solve many of the power source issues that engineers deal with on a daily basis.
The new 862 Series from WAGO offers the industries most flexible solution for connection of electrical devices and equipment. This new series was specifically designed as a cost-effective alternative, with flexible options to mounting, marking, wiring, grounding, and testing that were not previously available to them from the more traditional style of terminal strip.
The 750-655 AS-i Master interface module allows easy, fast, and seamless integration of the AS-i bus protocol as a sub-network to other popular bus protocols such as Ethernet, PROFIBUS, DeviceNet, MODBUS, etc. Housed in a compact 12m m wide package, the WAGO master is easily integrated into the I/O node the same way as other 750 series I/O modules.
WAGO announces new advancements in both design and processes to lead the industry in providing a cost-effective solution for Surface Mount Technology (SMT) with their 236 Series. Key design elements incorporated into the 236 Series included optimizing the solder pin length to adapt to the reflow process and use of high temperature resistant plastic for the insulating housing.
