Radar Systems Incorporate Telit GSM/GPRS Module

Telit Wireless Solutions has announced it will supply Coyote System with GE865-QUAD modules over the next two years for use in GPS radar warning systems. The radar warning systems distributed by Coyote transmit in real-time the speed limit and alerts drivers of mobile and fixed speed cameras, as well as traffic incidents. Currently used in France, the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy and the Czech Republic, these radar warning systems have more than 600,000 users.

Coyote System's expanded partnership with Telit also includes co-branding, illustrating that Telit technology is inside the device. Beyond Coyote System, companies from the fields of tracking, telematics, fleet management and e-health are also using the GE865-QUAD. With its compact size and efficient energy usage, the M2M module is suitable for use in even the smallest mobile devices. Another feature of the device is the remote AT service, developed by Telit to allow AT commands to be sent to the module via SMS or TCP.

Telit is also offering its customers a new service, Premium FOTA Management, which simplifies the maintenance of applications even further. Changes in the network or a new software version can lead to applications malfunctioning, which means that the module firmware has to be updated regularly. With Premium FOTA Management, companies can quickly upload these updates remotely, extending the application lifecycle and allowing companies to reduce maintenance costs.

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.
