L-com's Horizon Interactive Award Win the Latest in a Long List of Awards

L-com, Inc., a designer and manufacturer of wired and wireless connectivity products, has won a bronze Horizon Interactive award in the 2011 competition.  The award, which recognizes excellence in the design and programming of interactive media, was also given to highly praised websites such as AmericanEagle.com and GarretPopcorn.com.

Though this is the first Horizon Interactive award L-com has won, the company has won many other prestigious awards in the past twelve months, including a gold Stevie® award for Sales and Customer Service, and three silver Communicator Awards for L-com's website and catalog. The Horizon Interactive award joins an impressive list of honors for everything from products to service to design. So far in 2012, L-com has won nearly as many awards in the first six months as it had in the entire year of 2011, which was itself a big year in awards for L-com.

"The Horizon Interactive award is deeply prestigious and is alone an indicator of our efforts to provide an excellent user experience," said Chris Long, L-com's SVP of Marketing and Ecommerce. "But the big picture, the long list of honors and the fact that we are getting more and more recently, shows something else: that L-com is truly a pillar of its industry, successfully competing using all of its business facets, not just the products or the services. L-com is a complete package."

L-com will receive the crystal award in coming weeks and will display it in the lobby of its North Andover, MA, office.

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.
