New 18" Deep Pick Rack: Exclusively from Akro-Mils

Akro-Mils, a North American leader in storage, organization and transport products, announces new 18" Deep Pick Racks that provide additional options in rack and bin systems. These systems, which feature angled shelves for easy access and visibility of parts and supplies, are ideal for 5S Lean and other productivity initiatives. The first and only 18" pick racks in the industry, these new racks provide up to 50 percent more storage capacity than 12" deep pick racks.

The new systems, which include Single-Sided, Double-Sided and Mobile options, continue Akro-Mils’ tradition of providing heavy-duty pick racks constructed of 16-gauge steel that offer convenient, high-density storage. The 18" Deep Pick Racks have a weight capacity of more than 100 lbs. per shelf when secured to a wall or floor. The single-sided rack has a total capacity of 900 lbs. and the double-sided rack has an 1,800-lb. capacity. The double-sided rack, when used with the optional heavy-duty Mobile Kit, also has an 1,800-lb. weight capacity.

Akro-Mils 18" Deep Pick Racks are available separately or packaged with industry-leading Shelf Bins, and innovative new products such as ShelfMax® 6" High Bins, Indicator® Two-Toned Bins, AkroDrawers® and System Bins™. Akro-Mils pick racks improve workspace organization and efficiency in a variety of settings — from industrial to healthcare.

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.
