DC/AC Inverters meet NEBS/Telco standards.

Topaz S4 scalable -48 Vdc DC/AC inverters offer paralleled synchronized operation while N+1 redundancy is achieved with 2 or more units connected in parallel. They use redundant power modules that are hot swappable within rack mountable receiver cabinet. Units are scalable from 3.5 kVa to 21 kVa in N+1 configuration. Noise filter limits ripple current on battery and ensures radiated and conducted...

Safety Switches have key-operated lock.

Plastic-body FP and metal-body FD interlock switches allow access only to authorized personnel. Key locks actuation key in place and closes switch contacts. Door and safety switch contacts can only be closed when key is inserted into switch and turned 180 deg. Switch head independently rotates 360 deg in 90 deg increments. Switches have IP66 protection rating and conform to OSHA 1910 lockout...

Cable Ties are available in weather-resistant designs.

Tie-Max(R) cable ties are designed for mounting and non-mounting applications. Tensile strength ranges from 18 to 175 lb, with cable lengths of 3.78 in. to 30 in. Tensile strength of mounting cables is 18 to 50 lb, in lengths of 3.94 in. to 8.07 in. Weather-resistant Tie-Max ties have UV-resistant Carbonate A added. Pocket-sized hand tools and tie guns tighten and cut cable.

Electrical Contacts are etched from beryllium copper.

Photochemically-etched contacts are designed for integrated circuit manufacturing. Thicknesses range from 0.0005 to 0.090 in. Beryllium copper is suitable for products requiring hardness, strength, self-lubrication, and good thermal and electrical conductivity. It is also beneficial in spring applications that result in high usage or high stress to parts.

Rack System Design & Buyer's Guide

There is plenty to consider before setting up or replacing storage rack systems in your warehouse. This whitepaper contains a guide and general checklist of the most important considerations.

Fluorescent Ballasts fit multiple lamp applications.

Triad(R) T8 low profile electronic ballasts allow maximum fixture flexibility. Suitable for pendant mount and specialty lighting applications, they have small cross section and 1.18 in. height and width of for indirect/direct fixtures. Ballasts accept input voltages of 108 to 305 V, has instant start operation, operate at less than 10% THD, and have plug-in lead connectors for easy installation....

Ballasts operate pulse-start metal halide HID lamps.

F-Can Ballasts incorporate Xtenza(TM) ignitor technology, making them suitable for remote mounting and permitting lamp-to-ballast distances up to 50 ft. Models operate on 120 or 277 V systems. All components including core and coil, dry-film capacitor, and ignitor are encapsulated in single metal case. Ballasts feature auto-reset thermal protection for both voltage taps. They are available for...

Latching Relay handles 30 amps.

DQ Relay measures 38 mm long, 17.3 mm high and 29 mm wide with high insulation distance of at least 8 mm. Contact arrangement is 1 Form A. Unit is cadmium and lead free and complies with safety standards (UL/CSA and VDE approved). Applications include time switched electric water heaters and remote control of electric power meters.

Fused Inlet is VDE and cURus approved.

Series 4707 Fused Inlet is available with single or double pole slotted screw type fuseholders for 5 x 20 mm fuses. Rated at 250 V at 10 A, inlet includes 2 fuseholders rated to IP65. Classed as PC2 (IEC/EN 60127-6), fuseholders guard against accidental shock when fuses are changed. Maximum power acceptance is 2 x 1.6 W, and wire terminations are 6.3mm quick-connects or solder. Inlet complies...

Lamp Ballasts conserve energy.

Triad(R) high efficiency lamp/ballast system can lower energy consumption by 11% in T8 lamp applications, as compared to company's previous products. Ballasts conserve energy without sacrificing lamp life or light output and are suitable for retrofits and replacements. They operate standard or high-efficiency T8 lamps. Total harmonic distortion (THD) is less than 10%, and units are available with...

AC Power Sources includes 16 waveform library.

Available with manual or programmable controller, ASX series switch-mode topology AC Power Sources achieve power conversion using pulse-width modulation. Manual controller enables users to adjust voltage and frequency from instrument's front panel. Controller includes 1 phase/ 3 phase switch selectable output, 1500 to 6000 VA output capacity, and 600 V output that covers frequency band of 15 to...

Basalt America Announces Stronger, Lighter, and Corrosion-Free FRP's (Fiber Reinforced Polymers)

Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP), represents a truly groundbreaking advancement in structural reinforcement. Lightweight, strong, and green, they are changing the way the construction industry thinks about rebar. Unlike steel, FRPs don't rust and are far stronger than standard rebar. To learn why Fiber Reinforced Polymers are poised to change the way the world builds, see our video.
