We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "IP54",
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 Thermal imagers provide easy building checks from
Fluke (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "Fluke TiR1 and TiR thermal imagers can be used for detection of wet areas in roofing surveys, for energy audits and other moisture and mould issues in walls, ceilings and floors".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Thermal imagers offer affordable solution from
Fluke (UK): "The Fluke Ti25 and Fluke Ti10 thermal imagers allow users to operate from a safe distance and still see small temperature differences".
In December 2007, we covered the news from Rockwell Automation
concerning its Configured drives
- take a look at Drive packages come ready to use
which says: "Configured drives approach allows engineers to choose a base drive package and then enhance it with numerous options in line with the needs of the end application".
Take a look also at the news release from Lenze, Servomotors increase power ratings,
as well as DC gearmotor powers in on 12V supply from Midwest Motion Products,
and Robots offer increased versatility from System Devices.
