APEM Switches Feature Sealing Boot Protection

 July 6, 2020

Sealing boots have longed been used to prevent dust, sand and water from getting into switches. On toggle versions, they also prevent ice from blocking lever action. They are compatible with frontal sealing options K and X408

By adding a rubber boot to the switches, the gaps between the operator and the bezel, where microbes can enter even with a stringent cleaning process, are no longer reachable. Moreover, the boot increases the resistance and sealing of your application against repeated use of disinfectant. 

Most switches available in the APEM-IDEC range, offer a rubber boot that does not require a major modification to the design, therefore providing an immediate sealing solution to new & existing applications.

It is therefore an immediately applicable solution for future equipment but also for existing equipment.

Sealing boot protection:

  • flexible
  • quick to install
  • easy to clean
  • protects your application

ABB: New REX610 Relay Retrofit Program

Since the 1980s, ABB has installed more than 700,000 SPACOM relays used for power system protection and reliable power system operation world-wide. With the older generation of relays now aging, ABB has been actively developing new technology and expanding its service portfolio to replace select SPACOM relay types with REX610 relays. REX610 is the first all-in-one protection relay to support all basic power distribution applications with only six variants, making it easy to order, set up, use and service. This relay can be easily adapted during its entire lifetime to meet the shifting requirements for protection, communication and network.

SCHURTER Installation-ready Piezoelectric Switch Features Pre-assembled with Cable

Designed for harsh environments, the PSE piezoelectric switch comes with a pre-assembled polyurethane cable to offer maximum flexibility and the highest IP protection during installation. The housings of the factory assembled piezoelectric PSE family are made of stainless steel 1.4462. This steel is characterised by its particularly high resistance to corrosion, which is essential in areas with high humidity. The PSE switches offer maximum reliability and a long service life (20 million actuations). Hermetically sealed housings make the PSE with cable predestined for use in particularly harsh and inhospitable applications.
