Grace Engineered Product announces that it now offers UL Type 12 rated housings. The innovators of the GracePort® convenience interfaces continue to come through on the challenge to provide the best and most complete selection products that increase electrical safety and promote employee productivity. Housings with the UL rating of 12 are for “indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against circulating dust, falling dirt, and dripping non-corrosive liquids,” according to Underwriters Laboratories.

UPS specialist, AEC UK, has launched the T6 Compact+, a true on-line double conversion UPS that has been specially engineered to offer performance, compactness and reliability for critical applications. Available in power ratings of 10kVA to 30kVA in three to single phase and 10kVA to 40kVA in three to three phase, the T6 Compact+ is lightweight for easy manoeuvrability, has convenient access for cable and battery installation and with noise levels of just 60dBA at one metre, can be conveniently located in computer rooms.

The new RT 20 series of standard industrial duty UPS systems is announced by Borri Power Systems Limited.

Easby can now offer our customers the full transformer product range from Myrra, specialists since 1942 with production locations in France, Poland and China and engineering and sales locations in the UK, France and Ireland. The facilities are VDE, UL/CSA, EN and ISO certified.

To meet the ever more demanding requirements in solar technology, SMP has developed high-performance chokes for solar power inverters. The chokes have exceptionally compact dimensions and operate quietly, which allows their use in residential areas. Developed by SMP especially for solar power applications, the materials used have low magnetostriction and exceptionally low eddy current and hysteresis losses. This means that the inverters in which they are used are highly efficient, so that a larger proportion of the generated power can be fed back into the grid, resulting in a faster return of investments.

E2S has developed Spectra to extend its industrial range of visual signalling devices. The B350 and B450 traffic lights are designed to provide status and safety warning in industrial applications such as factories, warehouses and process control systems.

SMP Sintermetalle Prometheus GmbH & Co KG introduces inductive components for industrial power electronics, drives, power generation and instrumentation and control applications.

E-T-A Circuit Breakers has introduced a new rail-mountable, thermal-magnetic circuit breaker for the overcurrent protection of loads and their supply cables in plant and process control systems. It enables failures to be detected without delay to prevent personal injury as well as machinery from being damaged. Its small width of only 12.5mm gives it a competitive edge over standard products, which typically have widths of 17mm or even 22.5mm, enabling maximum exploitation of available space on a rail.

Phidgets Inc. announced that he new version of the 1018 PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8 now has a Digital Input Hardware Filter that eliminates false triggering from electrical noise. The digital input is filtered by a 2-stage filter, rejecting noise of higher frequency than 1Khz. This filter generally eliminates the need to shield the digital input from inductive and capacitive coupling likely to occur in wiring harnesses.
