We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Electrical Connectors",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Sensors suit mobile applications from
Parker Hannifin, which we summarised at the time by saying "IQAN sensors are mounted in tough stainless steel or plastic housings, complete with all signal conditioning electronics and are protected against shock, vibration and electro-magnetic
interference".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Polymer offers high stability from
Victrex: "Victrex Max-series polymers are a blend of Victrex Peek polymer and Extem UH thermoplastic polyimide (TPI) resin from Sabic Innovative Plastics".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Automation Products Group
concerning its Hammer Union pressure transmitter
- take a look at Pressure transmitter handles abrasive media
which says: "The Hammer Union pressure transmitter is designed to provide long life in harsh oil patch environments in applications such as mud logging, cementing, fracturing and acidising".
Take a look also at the news release from Kavlico, Pressure sensor handles a range of gases,
as well as Pressure transducer suits tight spaces from Setra Systems,
and Website eases access to small quantities of copper from Storm Copper Components.
