INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH SECURITY
The mGuard security devices provide all-in-one routing, firewall and VPN capability in rugged, industrial hardware. The GT/GT variants support speeds up to 1 gigabit. These variants support fiber as well as copper connections, making them ideal for applications covering distances >100 meters or in electrically noisy environments. Because they use SFP connectors (sold separately), a single GT/GT can work with single, multimode or long-haul fiber.

WATER ANALYZER
Triton TR8 analyzer measures suspended solids or turbidity at levels greater than 500 NTU, with output available in multiple units, including 0.00-9999 FNU, 0.00-9999 ppm, 0-300g/l and 0-200%. Meanwhile, TR8 TA sensor has an error rate of less than 5% of reading. Its sensor electronics constantly adjust to suspended solids and turbidity signal readings versus the reference detector. It is factory-calibrated in FNU (formazine nephelometric units) and is plug-and-play.

CLEAN ROOMS
Rittal’s new Hygienic Design (HD) enclosures provide the ultimate solution where cleanliness and sanitation are paramount. Crafted of stainless steel, they feature a smooth surface grain, internal hinges, washable gaskets, locks and no crevices to trap debris or contaminates. They are available with screw covers for smaller, integrated applications or hinged doors for larger installations. Both are made of ANSI 304 stainless steel. They have angled wall and door surfaces, so water runs off easily.
