Laird Technologies to Participate in 2012 TETRA World Congress

Laird Technologies, Inc., a global leader in the design and supply of customized performance-critical components and systems for advanced electronics and wireless products, today announced it will be participating in the 2012 TETRA World Congress. The conference will be held at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre from May 14-17, 2012.  

Laird Technologies will showcase its current portfolio of industry-leading antenna solutions for the Public Safety and Land Mobile Radio markets including portable radio, mobile radio (vehicular), base station, and GPS antennas. A sampling of currently available products will be showcased, as well as a preview of three new and upcoming products: a high-performance LTE/EVDO/GPS antenna, vehicular MIMO antenna, and M8 vehicular antenna mount.

“Laird Technologies is very excited to be attending TETRA World Congress for the first time and also to be new members of the TETRA + Critical Communications Association (TCCA),” said Rob Antonio, Laird Technologies Product Manager for Public Safety Antennas. “The event gives us an excellent opportunity to preview our new antenna products for public safety radio communications. We will also have a selection of world standard radio antennas on display. These antennas are designed to survive the rigorous requirements of public safety and civil service applications.”

The Congress combines a comprehensive conference with interactive seminars, social events and the world’s largest exhibition of TETRA equipment and applications. The event provides attendees with the opportunity to network with the largest gathering of TETRA users, manufacturers, network operators, application developers and systems integrators from around the world. No other event attracts such a wide range of people who use, develop or distribute the TETRA standard.

As a global leader in the design and manufacture of antennas, Laird Technologies employs advanced, proprietary design tools to bring cutting-edge designs to market with unmatched performance that adds value in every application. These products include industry-best antenna solutions for fixed and mobile clients, base stations, wireless backhaul, portable radios, telematics and many other market segments.

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.
