The K-Sun Green Machine® is a New Equipment Digest King Award Competition Winner!

K-Sun Corporation's new GREEN MACHINE® label printer system has won a Bronze Award in the Packaging Equipment and Supplies Category in New Equipment Digest's prestigious King Awards Competition.

The King Awards recognize industry's best new products that were introduced in 2010 and 2011. It is named after New Equipment Digest's long-time Chief Editor Bob King.

The K-Sun GREEN MACHINE was recently showcased to Grainger representatives and their customers at the 2012 Grainger Show held at the Coronado Springs Resort and Convention Center in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

Selected from five finalists in the Packaging Equipment and Supplies category and a total of 80 products in 11 categories, the GREEN MACHINE will be featured on www.newequipment.com and in the April edition of New Equipment Digest magazine and will receive recognition at Industry Week's Best Plants Conference April 23-25 in Indianapolis.

K-Sun's GREEN MACHINE is the most eco-friendly and technologically advanced label printer system in the marketplace. Advanced features include front cartridge loading system, 8 bar code formats, the PEELGuard® trimmer that rounds corners to prevent label peel, 12 language prompts, Euro/Latin hot key, font style and size hot keys, telecom and electrical hot keys as well as a backlit display for viewing on all light conditions.

More than 100 sizes and colors of adhesive, bar code, and iron-on fabric labels and heat shrink tubes are available. It meets global energy efficiency standards including the European Union's Eco-Design Directive and UK, UL, CUL, LPS, TUV, GS, RoHS, WEEE and Level V California Energy Reduction standards, tests, certification and requirements. Non-PVC and lead-free parts, recycled paper and plastics are used where possible and a cartridge recycled program is available.

NED is an award-winning monthly magazine of new products for industrial and manufacturing customers. For the past 75 years, NED has been the leading source of information for general industry and plant operations, maintenance, engineering, production, purchasing and administration.

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.
