Legrand | Ortronics Introduces Clarity High Density Copper Solutions

Legrand | Ortronics, a global leader in high performance network infrastructure solutions, is proud to introduce our newest high density Clarity jack and panel products. Clarity High Density Jack solutions solve copper density challenges without sacrificing performance.

Ortronics new high density jacks (HDJ) incorporate patent-pending mechanical and electrical advancements, providing greater headroom, as well as a new termination mechanism for easier termination that eliminates errors and reduces labor costs. A new slide-lock assists with quicker installations, while locking the jack firmly in place.

Ortronics smaller HDJ jack footprint allows up to 48 ports of premium Category 6a, 6 or 5e performance in 1 rack unit panel. The new high density jack and panel series require less rack and floor space, reducing real-estate costs. Ortronics HDJ patented, recessed angled modular patch panels combine with Ortronics vertical cable managers to provide up to quadruple the density as standard panels with horizontal cable managers.

The greater rack unit density, made possible with the smaller jack footprint, is supported by Ortronics superior cable management products that have been optimized for cable protection and proper airflow as part of the Layer Zero® solution. This system is ideal for applications like data centers, distribution areas (TIA-942 Standard) or limited space, high density environments.

Clarity High Density Copper solutions are supported by Layer Zero. Layer Zero is the proposed infrastructure layer for the ISO/OSI model introduced by Legrand | Ortronics. Layer Zero - the Infrastructure Layer - addresses the critical role that the physical infrastructure plays in network performance. Layer Zero solutions encompass the entire physical infrastructure that supports your network, including advanced cable management, pathway solutions, under-floor and overhead systems, aisle containment, racks and cabinets.

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.
