Hammond Enclosure

C-Box Screw Cover with Knockouts is designed for general purpose indoor commercial use as a junction, pull or switch box. It is formed and spot welded from 16 or 14 gauge steel depending on size. Flat steel covers are fastened with plated steel screws. Keyhole slots permit cover to be lifted off without removing screws entirely. Enclosure and cover are finished in ANSI 61 gray powder coating.

TCI Filters

The HG7 HarmonicGuard Series Harmonic Filter, when applied at the variable frequency drive, provides a low impedance path for the major harmonic currents demanded by the drive. This greatly reduces the amount of harmonic current flowing through the distribution system and results in improved power factor, lower RMS currents, lower harmonic current distortion, lower harmonic voltage distortion, and increased system capacity.

ABB Terminal Technology Eliminates Wiring Mistakes On MCBs

ABB has launched a range of NOVOMAX G Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) aimed at OEMs, panel builders and the industrial sector. The System pro M compact incorporates a number of new features designed to eliminate wiring connection errors. A key feature is the positioning of the cabling terminal in front of the busbar connection terminal, making both terminals easier to access and see. By placing both terminal ports at the bottom of the MCB, connections can be made secure by using only one screw to fasten both the busbar connection and the electrical cabling into their respective terminals. ABB has also introduced auxiliary contacts for the pro M compact range, which can be added to the bottom of an MCB instead of the side.

Saving up to 50% space in enclosures, this feature increases the number of auxiliary contacts which can be installed, expanding the number of remote monitoring options. Plug-in connectivity also makes the contacts simple to connect.

The pro M compact MCBs also offer a reduced height compared to ABB's previous range, saving around 2cm of space per MCB. This provides additional installation space for when space is at a premium. ABB's patented release system enables easy removal without the need for a screwdriver. Release connectors on the back of the devices allow them to be simply disconnected from the busbar after turning power off and disconnecting the wiring.

The pro M compact range is suitable for use worldwide as the materials used to manufacture them exceed standards for both European regulations for RoHs and UL, the US directive for electrical components. The pro M compact MCBs can be ordered ready for installation for both Europe and the US. A Europe-only version is also available.

Snap Track Cable Tray & TURCK Quick Disconnect Technology Reduce Installation & Commissioning Time

TechLine Manufacturing has introduced a stronger, more efficient cable tray system for electrical contractors that, in conjunction with the use of TURCK instrumentation tray cable (ITC), cordsets and quick disconnect junction boxes, lessens labor on the plant floor during electrical installation of instrumentation and control equipment. TechLine's UL certified Snap Track aluminum cable tray system is assembled with patented push pins in place of traditional nuts and bolts simply snaps into place without the use of tools, thus reducing installation time. Snap Track cable tray systems are designed to accommodate the limited width requirements of instrumentation cable and have a high load bearing capacity.

TURCK has an extensive line of ITC rated quick disconnect cable for use in place of rigid metal conduit that eliminates the need for boundary seals in some hazardous locations, reducing installation time, commissioning and maintenance.

Snap Track systems include solid side rails with inward "C" configuration to provide superior strength and cable protection - from the control room to the instrument and all points in between, including drops, brick panels and service loop attachments at the instrument stand. TURCK's IP and NEMA rated junction bricks equipped with quick disconnect technology easily mount to TechLine's panels. The complete line includes 7/8 16UN and M12 standard, miniature, low-profile, terminal chamber and NAMUR junction bricks with integral cables or home run connectors. They are available for virtually all industrial networks, as well as HART and analog wiring.

Interface Modules with FDT/DTM Capability Simplify Device Setup

To simplify device setup and installation time, TURCK's interface module (IM) family may now be programmed via a PC or integrated push buttons using FDT/DTM software, along with PACTware. This software allows multiple parameters to be set and saved in a matter of seconds. The ease of use and structure of this system allows asset management ability with trending and data logging of values.

TURCK's IM models may be used to monitor the speed of motors, shafts and conveyors, the temperature of RTD's and thermocouples, and to control or monitor analog signals for linear movement, temperature, pressure, level control or any other device using 4 to 20 mA signals. Intrinsically safe models to control devices in hazardous areas are also available. All models are equipped with a two-line transflective LCD display, making it easy to read even in very bright light. The modules also incorporate a universal supply voltage and removable terminals, making them easy to install in new or existing systems.
