Yesterday, we wrapped up our exclusive webinar showcasing the groundbreaking products we unveiled last month at **Automation Fair in Anaheim**. Today, we’re eager to share these innovations in a blog format so you can catch up on everything that happened—even if you couldn’t make the show or webinar. From **GracePort® ThruView 360** to the **ChekVolt™ 3kV Test Point** and beyond, these solutions tackle the core challenges you face on the plant floor—**maximizing safety, reducing downtime, boosting operational efficiency,** and making the safer choice also the *easier* choice. Below is an in-depth review of each product plus direct insights from our webinar panelists. ## The "Why" Behind Our New Products Before diving into each solution, let’s talk big picture. Industrial facilities are under constant pressure to: 1. **Keep employees safe** around electrical and mechanical hazards. 2. **Maintain productivity and reduce downtime**—planned or unplanned. 3. **Adapt to evolving technologies** like higher-voltage systems in electric vehicles, solar arrays, and new automation standards. But there’s a real cost: according to [OSHA](https://www.graceport.com/blog/osha-electrical-safety-program-compliance-guide), [Lockout/Tagout (LOTO)](https://www.graceport.com/blog/lockout-tagout) and hazardous energy control violations are *consistently* among the top five most-cited issues. This reality underlines the urgent need for safe, **engineered solutions** that also increase efficiency. That’s exactly why we continue to innovate. ![Round Housing Social Media Ads 2410 (1)](https://www.graceport.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Round%20Housing%20Social%20Media%20Ads%202410%20(1).jpg?width=2296&height=1208&name=Round%20Housing%20Social%20Media%20Ads%202410%20(1).jpg) ## GracePort ThruView 360 Our **GracePort** panel interface connectors have long been a staple in the industry for **safe, closed-door access** to PLCs, VFDs, and other control components. The newest member of the family, the **ThruView 360**, takes that concept to the next level. What’s New? - **Round Housing Design:** Installs easily using common 4-inch conduit knockouts—perfect for both **retrofits** and **new builds**. - **[IP69K](https://www.graceport.com/blog/understing-ip-ratings) & [UL Listed](https://www.graceport.com/blog/ul-listed-vs-recognized):** Delivers a robust environmental seal against dust, water, and chemical washdowns. - **Fully Customizable:** Add your own logo, specialized text, or even a QR code linking to your digital work instructions or safety procedures. Why It Matters - **Speed & Safety:** Keep enclosure doors closed while making quick programming changes. According to user feedback, GracePort solutions can reduce data access tasks by up to **74%**. - **Simplicity:** No more rummaging for PPE and powering down entire systems for a small software tweak. - **Scalability:** Standardizing ThruView 360 across your facility helps unify safety protocols and reduce panel-building complexity. **[Request Your GracePort ThruView 360 Sample Here](https://www.graceport.com/thruview360-round-panel-interface-connector)** **![R3MT-VI Social Media Ads 22123 (1)](https://www.graceport.com/hs-fs/hubfs/R3MT-VI%20Social%20Media%20Ads%2022123%20(1).jpg?width=2296&height=1208&name=R3MT-VI%20Social%20Media%20Ads%2022123%20(1).jpg)** ## ChekVolt 3kV Test Point **Permanent Electrical Safety Devices (PESDs)** have always been core to the Grace lineup. They’re externally mounted hardware that allows **[absence of voltage testing](https://www.graceport.com/blog/absence-of-voltage) **with your standard multimeter—without opening a panel. Now, we’re raising the bar even higher with the **ChekVolt™ 3kV Test Point** designed to handle up to **3000 VDC**. Who Needs It? - [**Solar Farms & Energy Storage Systems**](https://www.graceport.com/blog/renewable-energy-electrical-safety) (commonly up to 1500 VDC) - **Electric** *Vehicle* **Battery Production** (where 2,200+ VDC setups are increasingly common) - **Mining & Heavy Industries** (massive mobile equipment with high-voltage battery banks) Key Features - **High-Voltage Capability (up to 3kV DC):** Ideal for the rapidly growing solar and EV markets. - **Integrated Voltage Divider:** Steps down voltage so you can still use your **1000 V-rated** meter. - **UL Listed & IP2X Touch-Safe:** Built-in current-limiting resistors ensure a safer test interface. Why It Matters - **No Need to Crack Open Doors:** Perform your *live-dead-live* test with minimal arc-flash risk. - **Meets NFPA 70E 120.6**: Lets you verify voltage absence at the point of work with your trusted multimeter. - **Faster Lockout/Tagout:** Eliminates time-consuming full-suit PPE for routine checks. **[Request Your ChekVolt 3kV Test Point Sample Here](https://www.graceport.com/chekvolt)** **![Proxxi Social Media Ads 2412 (1)](https://www.graceport.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Proxxi%20Social%20Media%20Ads%202412%20(1).jpg?width=2296&height=1208&name=Proxxi%20Social%20Media%20Ads%202412%20(1).jpg)** ## Proxxi by Grace – Voltage Detection Wristband Even though PESDs are installed on many panels, **not every** piece of equipment can house a permanent safety device. Enter **Proxxi by Grace**—our brand-new *wearable* safety solution. Think of it like a second set of eyes (or ears!) for voltage detection across various tasks and environments. Highlight Reel - **Smart PPE:** A wristband that vibrates, flashes, or beeps in the presence of hazardous voltage—even if you thought the panel was de-energized. - **High/Low Alarms:** Warns you as you approach known boundaries around energized equipment. - **Data Analytics (Proxxi Pro Plan):** Trend and track near-misses to pinpoint training or process improvements. Where It Shines - **Electrical Contractors** who can’t permanently alter customer panels. - **Facilities with legacy equipment** lacking modern safeguards. - **Mobile or remote maintenance** where you can’t rely on installed PESDs. ![MHM Social Media Ads 24112 (1)](https://www.graceport.com/hs-fs/hubfs/MHM%20Social%20Media%20Ads%2024112%20(1).jpg?width=2296&height=1208&name=MHM%20Social%20Media%20Ads%2024112%20(1).jpg) ## GraceSense Machine Health Monitoring Solutions Downtime isn’t just costly; it can *undermine* your entire production schedule and hurt your bottom line.
