HADERA, Israel, Jan. 16, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Malers Automation and Control Ltd. ("Malers") (Pink Sheets:MSNC) today announced that the company has completed an upgrade of its proprietary Programmable Logic Controller-Sequence Event Recorder (called a PLC-SER).
The Sequence Event Recorder now includes a GPS Clock, which synchronizes the time with a GPS satellite. This means that every PLS-SER in a specific facility will perform and record their functions and events according to exactly the same time. In addition, the company has added TCP/IP option, enabling support of Ethernet connections.
"In complex industrial processes several events can and will occur simultaneously," says Ronen Luzon, CEO of Malers. "Each event needs to be recorded by our PLC-SER. Frequently, two simultaneous events in different locations of the factory could be interconnected, and recording the exact time of these events means that the factory operators will be better able to interpret the events and make adjustments to the process. With the world going wireless, Ethernet support for industrial processes is now a standard feature on our products."
Malers will begin marketing the upgraded PLC-SER to their existing customers and will be including the new upgrade in all future projects. "This adds further value to our products," continues Luzon, "and as the demands of automation in industry become more complex, Malers' products will offer the best performance with competitive pricing."
