Sensors with Ethernet/IP output
Temposonics R-series sensors
The Temposonics R-Series sensors have EtherNet/IP output. These include the new detached electronics RD4 option as well as RF flexible cable housing. The detached electronics model enables installation in harsher environments where the electronics need to be removed from high temperature, shock, vibration, etc. The RF flexible cable option provides a flexible sensing element rather than a rigid pipe, enabling easier shipping and installation of longer sensors (up to 33 ft) and the ability to measure position along a curved path.

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
