Integrity VCS™ Series Vibration Control System

Newport’s new Integrity VCS™ vibration control system combines the performance and value of our patented optical tables with a new, innovative isolation platform that features integrated shelf and mobility accessories to optimize laboratory space, organization and safety.

Integrity Series Vibration Control Systems (VCS) are composed of two components: a damped stainless steel work surface and either rigid or pneumatic isolators with automatic leveling valves integrated into a new frame design to deliver an economical isolation platform with superior isolation performance.

The vibration sources in the environment surrounding the optical table principally determine the level of isolation required in the isolator while the application and sources of vibration on the optical table surface are the determining factors in choosing an optical table. Integrity Vibration Control Systems are available in the most popular sizes and several performance levels to fit any budget. An optional overhead shelf is available to improve lab space utilization, organization and safety. Integrity VCS systems are available in 3 performance levels: Integrity 1, Integrity 2 and Integrity 3 Series.

Newport’s Integrity 1 Series VCS is designed to provide a superior mounting surface for general purpose photonics applications that are not extremely sensitive to vibrations. Integrity 1 VCS systems ares often used in spectroscopy, multimode fiber, micropositioning, and non-interferometeric applications. The Integrity 1 VCS system is available in 6, 8 and 12 inch thicknesses with either rigid or pneumatic isolators. The rigid Integrity system is field upgradable to pneumatic isolation. Casters can be added to provice increased mobility.

Newport’s Integrity 2 Series VCS is designed to provide a superior mounting surface for general purpose photonics applications that are not extremely sensitive to vibrations. Integrity 2 VCS systems ares often used in spectroscopy, multimode fiber, micropositioning, and non-interferometeric applications. The Integrity 2 VCS system is available in 6, 8 and 12 inch thicknesses with either rigid or pneumatic isolators. The rigid Integrity system is field upgradable to pneumatic isolation. Casters can be added to provide increased mobility.

Newports' Integrity 3 Series VCS is designed to provide a superior mounting surface for vibrationally sensitive photonics applications due to trussed honeycomb core design with proprietary tuned and broadband damping systems. Integrity 3 Series Vibration Control Systems are often used in imaging, single mode fiber launch and micropositioning, applications. The Integrity 3 VCS system is available in 8” and 12” thicknesses with either rigid or pneumatic isolators. The rigid Integrity system is field upgradable to pneumatic isolation. Casters can be added to provice increased mobility.

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.
