MKJ Trinity Series miniature circular connectors from ITT Interconnect Solutions now available on dynamic online 3D modeling website

ITT Interconnect Solutions, a leading global manufacturer and supplier of connectors, interconnects, and cable assemblies, has expanded its dynamic 3D modeling tool to include the Trinity MKJ Series miniature circular connectors.  The interactive 3D modeling site provides an invaluable resource for design engineers to quickly and easily test different connector solutions in prototype designs early in the design process.  Engineers can request a downloadable 3D CAD drawing which they can then import into their own CAD systems, saving time. This online resource is available at ITT Cannon website.

“With Trinity MKJ Series miniature circular connector CAD models now available, engineers have even greater design flexibility,” said David Impett, product manager at ITT Interconnect Solutions.

“This broad product range offers a unique combination of design, functionality and flexibility and suits numerous applications in multiple markets, including industrial, medical, aerospace and military.”

The MKJ Series connectors are up to 71% lighter and up to 52% smaller than equivalent military standard environmental interconnects, yet provide similar mechanical and electrical performance.

Coupling mechanisms include threaded, breakaway or bayonet, with ITT’s proprietary Pogo Pin sprung contact technology also available.  The MKJ0 connector suits everyday applications where space and weight are a design parameter, while MJK1 connectors cope with harsh shock and vibration environments.  MJK4 interconnects feature quick push/pull mating and unmating for fast breakaway disconnection. All MKJ Series connectors are available with either aluminium alloy or corrosion-resistant steel shells and backnuts.

ITT ICS’s 3D web modelling service is available to registered users of the ITT Cannon website. Registration is free and only takes a few minutes.

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.
