Distrelec adds top-quality electronic solutions from leading Swiss providers

Distrelec, Europe’s leading distributor of electronics and electronic components, is boosting its Swiss credentials by adding to its vast product portfolio two top-quality brands from highly respected manufacturers in Switzerland.

Distrelec has announced it is now handling sensors and automation solutions from Endress+Hauser, a Swiss-based process and laboratory instrumentation and automation supplier. Distrelec is also offering the entire portfolio of storage and security solutions from Swissbit, enabling users to store and protect data safely in industrial, NetCom, automotive, medical and fiscal applications as well as the Internet of Things (IoT).

Distrelec recently launched an initial range of 100 Endress+Hauser products, with further additions to follow in 2023. Of particular note is the Picomag series of flow sensors for non-hazardous areas which offer empty pipe detection and wireless remote access via Bluetooth. With a 1.4″ TFT colour display, IO-Link and various inputs/outputs for all line sizes, the Picomag series includes such products as the DMA20-AAABA1 electromagnetic flow sensor which has minimum and maximum flow rates of between 0.1L/min and 75L/min. Measuring just 130mm x 100mm x 70mm, this sensor also offers maximum operating pressure of 16bar and min/max operating temperatures of -10oC/+70oC.

As for Swissbit, its security solutions are used around the world across industries that demand high-end protection of assets. With increasing numbers of IoT devices in operation, security against data transfer interception and control systems hacking is more vital than ever. Swissbit goes beyond smart card chips technology or secured CPUs to deliver security solutions based on exchangeable hardware cryptography and standard interfaces. Swissbit’s easy-to-integrate and retrofittable hardware-based security products combine smart card functionality with NAND flash storage while systems with SD card, micro-SD card or USB interface can easily be updated to the protection level of a smart card chip. Swissbit’s storage range includes SSDs with PCIe and SATA interface as well as Memory Cards with several form factors, USB flash drives, and managed NAND BGAs like e.MMC.

According to Charlotte Kennedy, Head of Category Management at Distrelec: “We are delighted to add Endress+Hauser and Swissbit solutions to our portfolio. With more than 80,000 new products available online, we are fulfilling our mission to offer our customers a portfolio that is more comprehensive than ever and we will be adding thousands of new products throughout the year.”
