Designed to integrate into in-line assemblies within a wire harness, these 1500 V DC solar fuses protect photovoltaic (PV) installations from overloads and short circuits to minimize damage to solar panels.
Active-S humidity control sheets from FiberSource actively regulate moisture and consistently suppresses and maintains relative humidity with no power source or long-term maintenance.
At this year’s Light+Building trade show, Siemens Smart Infrastructure will show the first energy management solution that holistically captures energy data in buildings. It collects data all the way to the final circuit without any additional wiring or space requirements. All electrical data – from the power feed-in to the socket outlet – can then be seamlessly integrated into building management systems and analyzed by cloud-based applications.
Bel Fuse-Circuit Protection, a Bel group company and global manufacturer of fuses, recently announced the expansion of their 0ZCM Series of 0603 chip (package) size surface mount PPTC resettable fuses. With this release, Bel Fuse becomes the only manufacturer with 10mA, 20mA and 30mA offerings in this compact form factor, which is also AEC-Q compliant.
These branch circuit breakers are available in two terminal configurations: standard box terminals that accept multiple conductors and ring-tongue terminals. All breakers mount on standard 35 mm DIN rail. Bus connectors and feeder terminal facilitate mounting and wiring of multiple miniature circuit breaker arrays in control panel assemblies. Breakers can also be reverse fed.
LOVATO Electric obtained UL508 Type F Combination Motor Controller certification for SM1R… motor protection circuit breaker combined with BG and BF contactors. A Combination Motor Controller is a motor starter, typically used in the North America market.
AutomationDirect ProSense digital panel meters in 1/32 and 1/8 DIN sizes are AC or DC powered and feature IP65-rated meter faces, simple menu-driven pushbutton configuration, and accept a wide variety of input signals. Available outputs include alarm relays, milliamp current, and sensor excitation voltage options.
Atom Power has unveiled its second-generation digital circuit breaker, which features proprietary Silicon Carbide (SiC) Power Modules that doubles the performance as compared to the Generation 1 Atom Switch.
The comprehensive VARITECTOR product portfolio from Weidmueller provides surge protection for energy systems, instrumentation & control, and data interfaces. The lightning current arrester offers quick installation on 40 mm busbars in the meter cabinet or installation distributor.
Grace Engineered Products displayed its Safe-Test PointTM Permanent Electrical Safety Device (PESD) at the 2019 Rockwell Automation Fair. The Safe-Test Point high impedance protected device is designed with metered test points to allow for safe voltage measurement from outside the panel by inserting properly rated instrument probes into the device measuring phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground.
Siemens has expanded its HB3 generator circuit-breaker product offering with a new compact version. The HB3-Compact (HB3-C) offers the possibility for vertical or horizontal mounting and uses maintenance-free vacuum switching technology. With its adaptable design and installation, the HB3-Compact model offes a greater degree of flexibility when designing a new power plant or replacing outdated equipment.
Littelfuse, Inc., has expanded their line of POWR-SPEED PSR series high-speed fuses by adding 275 new bolted and DIN mounting options in various sizes and amperages to meet global market needs. These PSR series fuses are used in power conversion and power conditioning equipment to provide overcurrent protection for critical power semiconductor devices such as diodes, triacs, IGBTs (insulated-gate bipolar transistors), SCRs (silicon controlled rectifiers), and MOSFETs (metal–oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors).
Littelfuse has deveoped a compact, current-limiting fuse that rapidly opens to eliminate fault currents, making it ideal for circuit board designs with a small footprint. An expansion to the TLS family, the fuse is now available with a bolt-in mounting configuration to simplify installation.
Power management company Eaton has announced an advancement in circuit protection technology with its globally certified Power DefenseTM molded case circuit breakers. The circuit protection system provides a high level of metering accuracy within a breaker and real-time monitoring to deliver actionable facility insights. Leveraging embedded communication capability to do the work previously required by multiple components, the system’s advanced functionality reduces the assembly footprint.
Schneider Electric’s TESys N T02AN13G7 has a variety of hp applications, is an open device and is classified as 120 V AC common control circuit
Four to eight channels can be safely protected against overload and short-circuit currents with the CBM multi-channel circuit breakers. Thanks to the integrated nominal current wizard, setting the right nominal current for your loads is easy.The selected settings are locked electronically. This prevents the risk of unwanted incorrect settings.
The integrated early warning system ensures fewer failures. When the set nominal current of a channel reaches 80%, a warning is issued via the associated LED. Furthermore, the separate signal output can be used for remote signaling.
