Industrial Components Business | APAC
Resolving customers’ challenges with a full line-up of industrial components
Our “industrial components” represent a catch-all name for the various electronic devices incorporated inside control panels and control boxes that are used to control and manipulate machinery and manufacturing lines.These panel solutions are in use in a wide variety of settings such as those for building facilities management or elevator controls, not to mention in industrial settings.
Due to increasing need for space-saving and cost-reduction devices, the miniaturization of control panels has received considerable attention.
IDEC solves this problem by providing customers with a varied lineup of in-panel products that enable space saving and increase operational efficiency.
These variations include relays that switch electronic signals on and off, circuit protectors that offer defense against current surges above rated capacities, switching power supplies that convert the alternating current in commercial power supplies to a more stable direct current voltage, and the LED illumination units equipped inside machine tools and control panels that emit a clear and uniform illumination.
Relays
A relay that opens and closes (turns “on” and “off”) a contact with an electromagnet is called a “relay.” Relays are used in various types of machinery, ranging from the household appliances that everyone uses to industrial equipment. We supply relays with variations suitable for all purposes. In addition to small and slim models that save space inside control panels, we also provide models capable of handling high load and two pole-type force-guided relays that reduce the cost of safety measures.
Timers
IDEC offers a wide line-up of small, high-precision timers with various operating modes and conforming to major international safety standards, allowing them to be used in a variety of situations.
Terminal blocks
Terminal blocks are components used to connect electric wires to each other or to printed circuit boards. IDEC exclusively sells DIN rail terminal blocks in Japan, manufactured by Weidmüller, a world-leading company in terminal blocks. In addition to the push-in connection type, which has excellent vibration resistance and space saving, we also have terminal blocks equipped with SNAP-IN connection technology, representing the next generation of connection solutions. For IDEC's original screw terminal blocks, we have products that can meet various needs, such as fixed terminal type that pursues convenience with our own technology, DIN rail type that supports a wide range of capacities, and for printed circuit boards.
Switching power supplies
This device supplies DC power with high efficiency by switching a commercial AC power supply at high-speed using a semiconductor. IDEC’s switching power supplies have a slimmer design that reduces space requirements in control panels while also achieving ease of use and functionality. We provide power supplies that help achieve miniaturization and lower costs to the global market.
Circuit protectors
Our circuit protectors function to provide overcurrent protection. They protect circuits with open contacts when current exceeds the rated level. It can be used for a wide range of applications such as OA equipment, consumer equipment, and FA equipment, and we have a line-up of compact and high-performance products such as various capacities, tripping characteristics, and models designed for mounting on printed circuit boards.
LED illumination units
Our LED illumination units products have dust, oil, and water resistance that make them suitable for the harsh environments of industrial machinery. We offer a line-up of products that achieve high optical performance and compact design suitable for use in machine tools, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and other applications, and are optimal for various control devices.
