Updated interactive website demo provides guidance for choosing sinking or sourcing modules for both groov and SNAP PAC systems.
Confusion around sinking and sourcing wiring is one of the most common causes of field issues in DC control systems. Get it wrong, and devices won’t turn on—or worse, you end up rewiring a panel that should have worked the first time.
But manufacturers label their DC outputs in different ways. We updated our interactive demo to make the concepts simple. It shows exactly how sinking and sourcing circuits work and helps you select the correct I/O modules for both your groov and SNAP PAC systems. Try it now!

The Who's groovin' video series continues with a look at how to create data visualization from isolated plant operations across thousands of miles.
How do you manage dozens of solar plants built by different teams, spread across thousands of miles, and still keep power flowing every day?
For CVE Chile, that was the challenge. Each site ran its own controls with no shared way to track performance or to identify problems.
In episode 5 of the Who's groovin video series, we'll show you how CVE found a way to bring visibility and reliability to solar power plants across the vast terrain in Chile.

Learn how real data center operating experience evolved into a new OEM opportunity.
As data centers evolve to support AI, high-performance computing, and digital services, one challenge continues to rise above the rest: heat.
Traditional cooling methods are being pushed to their limits as processing demands—and the energy required to support them—grow at a rapid rate. Modern data centers consume massive amounts of electricity and water just to keep systems within safe operating temperatures, making cooling efficiency a critical concern for operators and engineers alike.
In this new case study, you'll learn how Nautilus Data Technologies brought their liquid cooling strategy to the forefront of managing data center demand.
