Compact TA35 with new rotary knob actuation in 1-, 2- and 3-pole versions

Schurter introduces an additional actuator to its exisiting and successful TA35 circuit breaker series. This new actuator provides a grip and turn style knob, which is ideal for switching with gloves or where longer feedback is desired. The design allows for customer specific colored faceplates and knob designs.

The new TA35 rotary switch offers IP 40 protection and fits panel thicknesses ranging from 2 to 3 mm. Terminals are for 6.3x0.8 mm connections. Switch and thermal overload protection current ratings range from 0.05 A to 20 A for 1- and 2- pole types, and 0.05 A to 12 A for the 3-pole version. Typcial applications are power tool machines, high pressure cleaners, power generators and compressors. The CBE is approved according to IEC 60934, UL 1077, CSA C22.2 235 and GB 17701 and is RoHS compliant.

- Thermal Circuit Breaker 1-, 2- or 3-Pole
- Full VDE, cURus and CCC approvals
- Rotary Knob Actuator with custom options
- Ambient Temperature: -30 °C bis +60 °C
- Positively Trip-free release

Economical, Reliable FSS-SMT Series Sensor Takes Up Less Space on the Printed Circuit Board;
SMT Packaging Often Eliminates Hand Soldering

Honeywell today introduced its smallest force sensor, the FSS-SMT Series, a low profile surface mount device that allows for automated assembly on a printed circuit board (PCB), often eliminating hand soldering and helping to reduce assembly costs. Cost-conscious customers will be attracted to the FSSSMT Series because it provides all four points of the Wheatstone bridg sensing element that gives them the flexibility to customize and integrate the sensor into other system electronics.

The FSS-SMT Series is designed to provide excellent reliability with a 20 million Mean Cycle To Failure (MCTF) at 25 °C [77 °F] rating that allows for consistent output over time, helping to reduce repairs or replacements. Low deflection (30 microns typical at full scale) and fast response help reduce measurement errors. Its stainless steel ball provides excellent mechanical stability, while the use of innovative elastomeric technology and engineered molded plastics results in load excitation capacities of 44 N over-force, making the sensor better able to handle unexpected increases in load.

Potential applications include occlusion detection, load and compression sensing, and variable tension control in ambulatory pumps, clinical diagnostic equipment, enteral pumps, infusion pumps, kidney dialysis machines, and wire bonding equipment.

The FSS-SMT Series is designed to provide precise and reliable force sensing performance in a compact commercial-grade package. The sensor incorporates Honeywell sensing technology that uses a specialized piezoresistive micromachined silicon sensing element. The low power consuming, unamplified, uncompensated Wheatstone bridge circuit design provides inherently stable millivolt output over the force range.

The FSS-SMT Series is an extension to Honeywell’s force sensor portfolio that includes the FSG Series, FSS Series, 1865 Series, and FS01/FS03 Series.

The UPD series feature Panel or PCB mounted Single Channel, Dual or 3 Phase SSRs rated at either 15 or 25 amps per channel, 280 VAC, in either a unique compact Low Profile or Single-in-Line package configuration

Crydom, a company of Custom Sensors & Technologies (CST) and global expert in Solid State Relay Technology, introduces a new line of compact Solid State Relays for Single Channel, Dual Channel or 3 Phase operation rated at 280 VAC with either 15 or 25 amps per channel output depending upon model, available heat sinking and operational ambient temperature.

Available in either a single-in-line (SIP) printed circuit board mounted version or low profile panel mount package with .25” male quick connects, all models feature optically isolated DC input control ratings of either 3 to 32 VDC, 3 to 15 VDC or 4.5 to 8 VDC depending upon model and are available in both zero voltage and random turn on versions.

The UL approved UPD Series Solid State Relays are ideal for heating, lighting or motion control applications. The UPD's unique design with metal base plate allows for attachment to an external heat sink to achieve full output ratings in a 40 degree C ambient temperature for either the PCB mounted SIP versions or the low profile panel mounted versions.

Compact Thermal Circuit Breaker Spots Factory Mounted Protection Cover

Schurter introduces new protection covers for its popular TA35 series Circuit Breaker forEquipment. The 2-pole circuit breaker is now available with factory mounted covers in addition to its range of covers supplied separate for customer installation. Cover options include transparent cover with or without collar, or collar only. These value added features are new to circuit breaker design, reducing parts count and providing a cost savings alternative to conventional products requiring secondary steps for IP protection.

The TA35 series has a high degree of customer appeal due to its compact form and attractive design. The rocker-actuating switch functions as a switch only or with thermal overload protection. It can be supplied either with or without illumination, including the trendy blue, for a total of ten rocker colors. Various standard legends and customer specific symbols are also offered. The TA35 with IP 65 protection cover is ideal for applications exposed to dust or splashing water. Typical applications are laboratory equipment for chemical and medical applications, food processing equipment and commercial appliances, wood and masonry machines, construction site equipment, power generators and cleaning equipment. The series is designed to meet IEC 60934, UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 235 and carries VDE and cURus approvals.
