Avalue Offers Panel PC For Harsh Environments

Avalue has launched the LPC-1203 touch panel PC for marine and extreme environment applications. The LPC-1203 achieves full IP65 compliance, meaning it can withstand overall splashing conditions. With low power consumption technology, the LPC-1203 is powered by the Intel Atom N270 processor, which reduces power usage and saves operation costs. The fanless LPC-1203 has an embedded heat dissipation trench design, enabling system-generated heat to dissipate quickly.

Other than quickening heat dissipation, the aluminium chassis also protects the computer when it is used in humid environments such as factories or testing laboratories, ensuring the computer operates reliably and stably. The entire computer is waterproof, including the front panel, rear data-transmission connectors, and power sources, and so on. The IP65 safety certified LPC-1203 is suitable for use in highly rigorous environments such as the naval force.

In particular, the setting of the front-side power button is covered by waterproof membrane for easy use. In addition, using the modular system-on-module design concept, the LPC-1203 supports diversified performance levels such as COMe/ETX CPU modules and lower scalable baseboard. This allows the user to group the boards according to individual needs. The modular design is said to make the computer price-competitive for users to choose system requirements freely and upgrade any time to extend product life. Based on an in-depth, flexible concept and diversified I/O deploys design, LPC-1203 fulfils serial port connectivity of industrial control for multi-equipments.

This is said to meet market demands and broaden product applications. The LPC-1203 leverages low-refractive touch-panel technology, which reduces refraction in between the panels. The screen is brighter when used outdoors, facilitating easy reading. The anti-abrasion design allows the touch-screen panel to reach hardness of 6.2-6.5, preventing scratches and increasing durability. When used in industrial control and automated mechanical environments the panel is protected, ensuring user safety.

The LPC-1203 comes with a 12in touch panel LED backlight screen, which supports resolution up to 1,024 x 768 and provides flexible input and tap function to ensure an unrestrictive and interactive user experience. Its LED backlight reduces heat generation, therefore reducing power consumption and cost and prolonging the panel's usage lifetime. The four-corner frame with arc design increases aesthetic value to fit industrial and commercial use. The LPC-1203 has passed CE/FCC Class B certifications and provides low electro-magnetic interference.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
