New Benelux Sales Office Opens

Precision Micro, the leading supplier of precision metal components, has opened an office in the Netherlands in order to better support its Benelux customer base. The new facility will provide a focal point for the Company’s commercial and technical activity in what it sees as a major growth market.

“Providing high level, technical support at the concept and design stages gives customers the confidence to incorporate the benefits of precision etching and electroforming in their designs,” said Anthony Marrett, Managing Director. “The new facility will give customers the access to our technologies and expertise that they continue to request.”

Recently appointed Internal Sales Assistant Marie Claire Kleijne will staff the office and be responsible for customer liaison, providing a conduit for order placement and order progressing.

The facility is to have a video conferencing facility that will enable staff and customers alike to communicate effectively with factory based personnel in the UK without the need to travel. Precision Micro has already instigated a dedicated manufacturing cell for Benelux customers; an experienced group of designers, production engineers and quality inspection personnel. Customers will have video link access to all of these people thanks to the new facility.

Also included is a demonstration area where staff will showcase components and the possibilities achievable using Precision Micro’s unique combination of process technologies.

“Our production technologies for the manufacture of custom high technology components and the Company’s willingness to dedicate resources to the Benelux business have been well received in our markets,” said Bonny Van Geel, Head of Sales for Precision Micro in Benelux. “Having a substantial base in Best near Eindhoven will enable us to serve both the Belgium and Netherlands market more effectively and respond to customers’ enquiries in a more efficient and timely manner.”

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.
