Finder 7T Series Panel Thermostats Increase System Reliability and Performance

February 3, 2012

Finder.jpg

Finder has announced the introduction of a pair of panel thermostats designed to maintain constant temperature levels in control panels and enclosures.  Suiting the needs of both simple and sophisticated heating and ventilation systems, the 7T Series thermostats help to improve component reliability and preserve instrumentation accuracy through enhanced temperature setting and control.

With red or blue temperature setting dials to clearly identify the heating and ventilation variants, the 7T thermostats are IP20 rated and come in slim 17.5mm rail mounting housings, ensuring easy installation and usage in compact panel designs.

A temperature setting range of between 0 and 60ºC makes them suitable for a wide range of environments, while their snap action bi-metallic sensor means a positive switching action and a long electrical life (100,000 cycles).  The thermostats’ output contact (normally closed for heating control, normally open for ventilation control) is rated at 250VAC, 10A, enabling them to directly switch heater or fan loads up to 2500VA AC1 and 250VA AC15.

Crydom Expands its Series H1 of Panel Mount High Voltage AC Output Solid State Relays.

January 16, 2012

clogo.jpg

Crydom, a brand of Custom Sensors & Technologies (CST) and global expert in solid state switching technology, has expanded its Series H1 of high voltage AC output Solid State Relays.

Complementing the successful Crydom Series H1 1200 Volt Blocking models, the new models now offer even higher levels of breakdown voltage and noise immunity (>1600 volts) for applications in installations where electrical transients are common and might otherwise damage less robust SSRs. The new Crydom Series H1 models include AC output ratings up to 90 amps at 660 VAC, with available control voltage of 4 to 32 VDC.

The Series H1 1600 Volt Blocking models feature 4000 VAC optical isolation, optional LED input status indicator, optional installed thermal pad and are available in either Zero Voltage or Random Turn-On versions. Crydom offers a variety of accessories for the Series H1 including a plastic touch safe cover, terminal lugs accepting up to 1 AWG wire, heat sinks rated from 5.0 to 0.5 °C/W, and mounting hardware kits. The Series H1 is UL and cUL recognized, RoHS and China RoHS compliant, and CE certified to the EMC and Low Voltage Directives.

Honeywell Introduces its Hawk™ Resolvers 1-Inch Series, Fully Housed Configuration

January 9, 2012

Logo.jpg

For Manufacturers who Need Accurate, Reliable, and Durable Non-Contact Rotary and Angle Position Sensing in Defense and Space Applications

The 1-Inch Series resolvers are manufactured and delivered up to 1.5 times faster than many competitors’ products, helping to meet special application requirements and minimize production time. With the launch of the Hawk™ Resolvers, Honeywell now offers two off-the-shelf versions, as well as resolvers that can be customized to meet specific end-user needs.

Potential defense applications for the 1-Inch Series include positioning for electro-optical systems, gimbals/communication pedestals, infrared systems, vehicle transmission systems, and test equipment. Potential space applications include positioning for satellite, satellite antenna, space station, and space
vehicle solar panel arrays.

The Hawk™ 1-Inch Series Resolvers offer several other competitive advantages, including:

* Shock specification of 50 g, 11 ms, vibration specification of 15 g, 10 Hz to 2000 Hz and wide operating temperature range of -50.8 °C to 93.3 °C [-60 °F to 200 °F] which allow for use in harsh military and aerospace applications;

* Wide excitation voltage range of 2 V to 15 V which allows customers to standardize on a resolver that meets their excitation voltage needs, simplifying sourcing and delivery, and saving time;

* Global support and over 30 years of resolver engineering expertise.

Unlike many rotary position sensors, the Hawk™ Resolvers offer sensing in harsh military and space environments. In addition to its non-contact design, the lack of electronics, and the use of space-qualified materials, the Hawk™ Resolvers meet multiple military/aerospace specifications: DO-160D, MIL-STD-202G, MIL-STD-810G, MIL-STD-81963B, MIL-STD-461F, andcomply with space outgassing requirement SP-R0022.

The fully housed configuration with bearing/shaft has a small outer diameter of 1 inch, which allows for use in size-restricted applications. The single speed operation (1 magnetic pole pair) allows for cost-effective angle resolution over a 360°+ range, and the wide excitation frequency range of 2000 Hz to 5000 Hz provides a wide variety of choices with which to power the device. The transformation ratio of 0.45 or 1.0 offers customers two choices, increasing flexibility within the application.

The Honeywell Hawk™ 1-Inch Series Resolvers are also available with a variety of options, including:

* Custom trim designed to allow tighter accuracy;
* Connections which include custom lead wire, cable, connector on unit, or connector on cable;
* Titanium housing which provides enhanced durability and resistance to corrosion; lightweight;
* Custom redundant version (two independent resolvers within the same housing) which provides reliable back-up/fail-safe in critical applications;
* Transformer for 360°+ rotation (continuous).

Timers Increase Flexibility While Reducing Part Number Count

December 21, 2011

Finder.jpg

Finder has announced the introduction of a range of eight modular, 22.5mm wide rail-mounted timers designed to provide a complete range of timing functions, while keeping part number holdings to the absolute minimum.  The multi-voltage 83 Series of multi-function and mono-function timers handles 14 different timing functions, with time scales between 0.05 seconds to 10 days and offers either single or double pole variants.

To maximise flexibility the timers support a very wide working voltage range, from 24V through to 240V AC or DC, making them suitable for mains or low voltage AC operation as well as DC battery supplies.  With changeover contacts rated for 16A, the 83 Series is capable of switching AC1 loads of up to 4KVA or single phase motors up to 0.5kW.  For easy maintenance, both flat blade and cross head screw drivers can be used to adjust the range and function selectors, the timing trimmer and to disengage the rail mounting clip.

The single pole 83.01 and double pole 83.02 multi-function timer variants both offer up to 8 different timing functions, including a special watchdog function allowing users to monitor repeating processes by resetting the time period each time a “watchdog” pulse is received, with the continuous presence or absence of a pulse beyond the set time triggering the release of the output contacts.

The 83.02 timer also provides the facility of external potentiometer time setting, enabling the timer to be adjusted from the front of control panel or enclosure, whilst assuring the security of timer function and time scale settings.  In addition, to further maximise flexibility and minimise part number stocking, it also offers users the option to select between either 2 timed or 1 timed and 1 instantaneous contact.

The third multi-function timer in the series, the 83.91 provides 4 asymmetrical flasher timing functions: starting pulse on; starting pulse off; as well as starting pulse on and starting pulse off both with a control signal input allowing timing to be initiated from a remote sensor operating at a voltage other than the supply voltage.

Completing the 83 Series timer range are 3 single pole mono-function timers:  the 83.11 for on-delay; the 83.21 for interval; 83.41 for off-delay with control signal; and a pair of 2 pole mono-function timers: the 83.62 for power-off delay (true off-delay) and the 83.82 for star-delta timing function.
