E-T-A   Receives CSA Approval on New Circuit Protector
 

ESX10-T CSA  Approved

 
The ESX10-T provides electronic circuit protection of 24 VDC loads in Industrial and Process Automation.
 
Question: Why? 
 
Answer:
 
Short circuit in a DC24V load circuit:
 
1.) Voltage dip when protected with branch protectors (MCBs), as the DC24V switch-mode 
     power supply responds faster and reduces or disconnects the voltage.
 
2.) STABLE 24V CONTROL VOLTAGE WITH ESX10-T
 
The Solution:
 
ESX10-T = Electronic protection of DC 24 V circuits against overload and short circuit = Restore selectivity with electronic trip curve, reliable protection even with high cable attenuation.
 
E-T-A achieve this by:
  • Active short circuit current limitation depending on current rating, e.g. 1.8 x IN
  • Short circuit disconnection from approx. 100ms
  • Overload disconnection from 1.1 x IN after 3 s

Technical Data:

  • Rated voltage 24 V DC (18...32 V)
  • Current ratings (nine fixed ratings)
  • 0.5 A, 1 A, 2 A, 3 A, 4 A, 6 A, 8 A, 10 A, 12 A
  • One trip curve for all types of loads: lamp loads, inductive loads, DC24V motors, capacitative loads up to 20,000 µF
  • One multifunctional LED: Green = OK, Yellow = over current detected, Red = over current disconnected
  • KEEPING IT SIMPLE!

P+F Rotary Encoders for Space Limited Applications
 
Rotary encoders are used to keep operations running smoothly and efficiently. They enable communication between machinery (performing the task) and the software used to control those tasks. These devices translate motion into position and/or velocity feedback that is crucial in executing a task correctly. In particular, the T-line 40mm Series has seen a rise in demand for printing applications. It's compact (40mm diameter) design allows these encoders to be located in very tight spaces.
 

P+F Rotary Encoders

 T-Line 40 mm Series Features Include:

    •  Compact 40 mm (1.57") diameter housing for tight installations
    •  Output resolution up to 1,024 ppr (typ. 100, 200, 500, 1000, or 1024)
    •  Integral 2-meter cable as standard
    •  IP54-rated housing
    •  4.75 to 30 VDC supply voltage
 
 
The T-line 40 mm Series consists of the TV140, THI40 and TSI40.
 
These Compact 40 mm diameter encoders are designed to fit the needs of the most light- to medium-duty low-cost applications. The TVI40 is a solid shaft version, the THI40 is a hollow shaft (full bore) version, and the TSI40 is a recessed hollow shaft version.
 
A unique feature of the THI40 and TSI40 is the new tangential cable outlet, designed by Pepperl+Fuchs, that enables the user to lay the cable radially or axially.

NEW!  Honeywell Submersible Pressure Transducer   
  
Honeywell's submersible PPTR transducer is a rugged, smart pressure transducer for use in the harsh environment of liquid measurements. It combines proven silicon sensor technology with microprocessor-based signal conditioning to provide an extremely smart pressure transducer. The PPTR submersible utilizes an integral SEA CON® electrical connector. The transducer is designed with an environmentally sealed, stainless steel construction that can operate in severe environments. The PPTR has many software features that support a wide range of applications.

E-T-A   Powerful Switching for Vehicles  - Power Relays
 
Power Relays PR60 and PR80 have been designed for single-pole switching of loads in vehicle applications. Available in rating of 100A, 200A and 300A, they are ideally suited for use as a battery disconnect relay or for switching other high current circuits. Both models feature a robust design, offer various mounting styles, and a high level of protection (IP 67) against water or dust ingress which facilitates installation in almost every type of vehicle mounting position.
