Zettler Magnetics Introduces New Toroidal Power Transformer

Zettler Magnetics, Inc., a player in the transformer market for more than 100 years, announced today that it now has the ability to build a wide spectrum of toroidal power transformers from 20 VA up to 5K VA. “Zettler Magnetics uses American design and support together with our Asian manufacturing facilities to offer a quality low cost transformer,” said Anthon Vermaerke, product manager, Zettler Magnetics. “All manufacturing of the new toroidal power transformers takes place in our ISO9001 certified facility and uses insulation class system rated materials.”

Toroidal power transformers can be used in lighting, power supplies and industrial control equipment. The transformers offer very low magnetic strayfields, a quiet operation and higher efficiency than standard EI lamination transformers, all in a compact size. Zettler Magnetics’ knowledge of toroidal transformers and production line capability, gives them the ability to build parts ranging from 20 VA to 5K VA.

“Our toroidal power transformers are of the highest design and workmanship quality in the industry while still maintaining a low cost to customers,” said Vermaerke. “Our large production capabilities allow us to offer volume pricing upon request as well as build and ship samples within 10 days of a customer order.”

Pricing for the new toroidal power transformers starts at $6.00 for a 20 VA unit with a mass production lead time of eight to 10 weeks.

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.
