Wireless Key Fobs For Security And Control Systems

Low Power Radio Solutions has introduced a range of multi-function wireless key fobs for manufacturers of security and control systems. The new wireless key fobs are available in a number of different designs, providing a range of control options and case designs to complement end-system aesthetics. The range is made up of six different models all operating at 43392MHz and housed in ABS cases.

All feature the Keeloq software data encoding system derived by Microchip Technology to ensure safe and secure transmission of control signals from the key-fob transmitter to the receiver. The Ring, Duet and Alien models are two-channel devices with transmission power of <+4dBm. They feature a low-battery indicator and transmission indicator using two LEDs, in red and green, measure 35 x 50 x 10mm and are fitted with rubber actuating buttons.

The Banan offers three channels and has a transmission power of <+2dBm and dimensions of 68 x 25 x 15mm with plastic buttons. The Lider and Quartet key fobs are four-channel devices with transmission power of <+4dBm. They both feature LED low-battery and transmission indicators, dimensions are 35 x 70 x 14mm, with plastic buttons on the Lider and rubber buttons on the Quartet. The RSC-2 wireless key fobs are said to complement the existing AMTX2B-4-ER transmitter already available from Low Power Radio Solutions.

This two-button key fob AM transmitter operates at 434MHz and features the company's easy-Radio software, allowing instant wireless communication with a matching receiver. On-board software can be customised to suit specific requirements and may be reconfigured up to a minimum of 1,000 times. The AMTX2B-4-ER offers reliable communication over an extended range, operates in ASK format and features an LED indicator to confirm transmissions.

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.
