Tree Unmanaged Switches

The compact Tree switches series can combine up to eight Ethernet terminal devices and integrate them economically into a network. Murrelektronik has broadened this product range: Two new models are available in a robust metal housing with six or eight ports and one new model is available with plastic housing and six ports. All of the new additions are UL approved!

This certification makes the switches suitable for applications in the USA and in Canada. This is a very important feature especially for export-oriented companies. The switches with metal housing offer an additional benefit: They are suitable for a very wide temperature range - from -10 up to +70° C. All Murrelektronik switches feature the same fast data transfer rates. RJ45 ports support transfer rates of 10 or 100 Mbit/s. The transfers are automatically detected via an auto-negotiation function.

Murrelektronik’s switches are suitable for Fast Ethernet and of course for networks with lower transfer rates. Thanks to an autocrossing capacity, the interfaces detect which cables are connected. This avoids wiring errors. A redundantly structured power supply ensures reliable operations. The biggest advantage of the unmanaged switches is that they do not have to be configured - completely different devices can be connected without any problems! Thanks to the Plug & Work technology, the switches can be quickly and conveniently installed.

Murrelektronik’s switches are suitable for DIN rail mounting. Featuring a width of only 22.5 mm (with 4 ports) of 45 mm (with 8 ports), they don't require much space. LEDs allow easy visual control for data rates and operating conditions.

Highlights:
  • Compact housing
  • Autocrossing
  • Redundant supply voltage
  • Overload and short-circuit protection
  • 10/100Mbit (Autonegotiation)
  • Automatic half or full-duplex detection
  • Wide temperature range

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.
