NEW: Universal EMV Shielding for All Control Cabinet Types

LÜTZE introduces EMC shield bus for all common switching cabinet widths and types.

Friedrich LÜTZE GmbH & Co. KG, Weinstadt, introduces a universally employable EMC shield rail for control cabinet construction. What is special about this: The rail is supplied as a continuous length and can be cut to the individually required frame width with only a few hand movements. The surface-galvanised sheet steel of the EMC shield bus from LÜTZE offers optimal EMC characteristics. The new EMC shield bus is offered in the basic length of 1173 mm. This dimension is right for installation in a 1200mm-wide cabinet on the cabinet frame, for example. For other cabinet widths or other installations, the rail can be individually cut to length in no time (if desired, LÜTZE will do this using a configured punch).

The shield bus can be universally used for all customary screen fasteners from Wieland, Wago, to Phoenix and Weidmüller.  On the rail, the stripped wires in the contact area are connected metallically over a large area by means of clamps. Readily available standard clamps can be used for this. The large stampings in the lower row are designed for cable clamping collars for strain relief. And so cable clamps, e.g. NIDAX, can also be used for clamping supply lines in shielded and/or unshielded design.

In practice, the LÜTZE EMC shield bus is fastened via spacing rollers, brackets or direct on the support rail. The holes required for this are quickly completed. To simplify this, the rail has a marking aid in the upper third for the required holes. To fasten and securely install it, an M8 screw in the appropriate length should be used. Since the rail with front installation lies on the legs, twisting in the case of strong loads with cable clamping is essentially impossible.

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

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

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.
