Numerous New Products and Innovations at COMPAMED 2011

At COMPAMED 2011 in Dusseldorf from November 16 to 18, Sensirion (hall 8a, booth H19.6) will once again be presenting new innovations in the fields of gas and liquid flow, differential pressure, humidity and temperature sensing:

Flow sensor for applications in anesthesia and ventilation
The new flow meter is based on the latest CMOSens® chip generation and features very low pressure drop, high speed and extremely high accuracy for measurements in a range up to 250 slm. The sensor additionally has an I²C interface and outputs a fully cali-brated, temperature compensated signal. The SFM3000 is the first product in Sensirion’s medical platform for mass flow sensors and is suitable for applications in anesthesia and ventilation.

New mass flow sensor for fluids
Along with the proven LGx16 OEM microsensor for efficient measurement of flow rates under 80 ml/min, a new flow and bubble detector is on display. The LG01 for detecting extremely low flow rates and air bubbles is a simple, cost-effective sensor and is especially suitable for integration in biomedical applications. Both sensors set standards for sensitivity, speed and size and offer attractive options for the improved control of very small fluid volumes. They allow small liquid volumes to be dispensed with substantially greater reliability.

New versions of differential pressure sensors
The digital and analog differential pressure sensors in the SDP600 and SDP1000 series, which have already been used in the millions, feature excellent long-term stability combined with very high sensitivity and accuracy. Now we offer a wide range of new versions of diffe-rential pressure sensors with extended or very low measurement ranges, low power con-sumption and certified failsafe characteristics.

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.
