Datapaq® Introduces New Oven Tracker® XL2 Temperature Profiling System

Datapaq continuously listens to the needs of its customers’ and their process demands. As these needs change, so do the solutions. Datapaq is proud to offer the XL2 as the latest generation of Oven Tracker systems. The advanced XL2 system offers revolutionary new functions, while ensuring routine oven profiling is easier, quicker and more comprehensive. Send the XL2 system through the oven and discover the true potential of your finishing operation. Use the product and oven temperature data to take your operation to the next level of quality and profitability.

The XL2 consists of data logger, thermal barrier, thermocouples and analytical software, and comes standard in 6 or 8 channels. Up to 16 channels can be supported with use of the Dual Interface Block. New features include:
  • Smartpaq –LED indicator tells you immediately upon oven exit if your process is in control and your run was successful based on your choice of pass/fail criteria.
  • Multiple Run Capability – Enhanced memory is capable of handling 10 consecutive runs before the information needs downloading to a computer.
  • Hardwired Telemetry – use outside your batch oven and transmit live data directly to your computer.
  • Auto TI Configuration – Configure the Transducer Interface to suit your process needs; No need to change thermocouples between runs.
The XL2 also features Datapaq’s powerful Insight™ software that has been designed specifically to convert raw temperature data into meaningful information that can be used to understand, control and optimize your cure process. Users can now choose between Professional and Basic functionality packages to suit their specific needs. Wizards guide users step-by-step through the set up of key analysis features making it easy to use for the technical specialist to the line operator.

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.
