Hubbell Wiring Systems Introduces netSELECT FPTV Connection Enclosure

Hubbell Wiring Systems is pleased to announce the new netSELECT FPTV Connection Enclosure designed to deliver high-density audio-visual (A/V) and data connectivity and power for today’s flat-panel TVs, displays and interactive whiteboards to sit flush against walls.

Constructed of rugged 18-gauge cold rolled steel that meets high-rise construction requirements, the new FPTV enclosure mounts quickly and easily to studs or sheetrock with no extra hardware for maximum flexibility. This two-gang enclosure also features two additional ISTATION™ mounting locations that accept three standard multimedia modules each.  This allows the enclosure to support a variety of A/V connectors and accommodates large bend radiuses associated with current cable types like HDMI, DVI, RG6/UQ and VGA.

“From homes and conference rooms to sports bars and classrooms, flat panel TVs, home theater systems, information displays and interactive whiteboards are rapidly becoming the norm. With various applications, A/V electronics and connection methods, the ability to easily configure the Hubbell FPTV enclosure with a wide variety of connector types eases deployment of flat-panel displays in virtually every application,” says Nate Herring, senior product manager for Hubbell. “The FPTV is unique in that it features consideration for all connector technologies, a metallic design that fits the requirements of both residential and commercial applications, and has a white power coat finish that blends into the wall for better aesthetics.”

The new netSELECT FPTV Connection Enclosure can be easily integrated with Hubbell ISTATION faceplates and A/V and data modules or keystone connectors, as well as the Hubbell X-END™ Plug-and-Play Multimedia System. The enclosure’s ABS trim ring quickly cleans up sheetrock rough-in, and the optional screw-on cover reduces tampering and protects connections where needed.

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.
