HELLERMANNTYTON INTRODUCES A HAND-HELD LABEL PRINTER FOR SAVING TIME, MINIMIZING EXPENSES AND ELIMINATING HASSLES

HellermannTyton, a global manufacturer of cable management and identification solutions which secure, route and identify wire, cable, and equipment, presents the SPORT hand-held thermal transfer label printer for creating markers on continuous colored vinyl rolls while on a job site. 

The SPORT printer is perfect for producing standardized labels for the solar and wind markets. This portable printer offers the convenience and versatility to generate custom or edit existing labels as needed for an installation or application, essentially eliminating costly interruptions and rescheduled inspections. Not only is the SPORT printer an efficient and time-saving tool for creating labels on demand, it also offers the added benefit of being pre-loaded with the current label templates as mandated by the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the International Fire Code (IFC). The existing templates stored in the SPORT printer can be modified to meet specific local code requirements which may be required by The Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Additionally, a large list of electrical symbols and graphics come with the SPORT printer and can be placed and sized easily on the label design.

The SPORT mobile printer produces ARC Flash labels, wire labels and vinyl signs that can be up to 2” wide, accommodating standard stock labels of ½”, 1” and 2”. This convenient printer also has a long-life battery that allows for hours of printing between charges, and has an optional soft shell carrying case with shoulder strap for easy transport up ladders and onto rooftops.

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.
