‘ip44’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Motor suits single-axis control from
Gefran SIEI UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "The KFM 05 is aimed at medium-precision motion and speed control applications where full servomotor based systems would be unnecessarily expensive.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Pressure transmitter handles abrasive media from
Automation Products Group: "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. ".
In November 2006, we covered the news from Cee-Norm UK
- take a look at Screwless terminations handle higher currents
which says: "The innovative Quick-Connect system of screwless conductor terminations has now been extended to include a range of 63A rated plugs and connectors. ".
Take a look also at the news release from STI Automation Products Group, Pressure transmitter is extremely rugged,
as well as Connector housing forces its way to IP44 from Harting,
and Metal detector is type approved from Amot Controls.
