‘Safety Certification’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Safety relays simplify control-system design from Eaton Corp, which we summarised at the time by saying "Safety relays in the Eaton Moeller ESR5 range simplify the design and implementation of control systems that meet safety and reliability standards.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Leuze switches offer distances up to 40mm from Leuze Electronic: "Leuze has expanded its range of high-quality inductive proximity switches, including models with switching distances of up to 40mm. ".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from Parker Hannifin - Parker Sales UK - take a look at Nitrogen generators cut costs of food packaging which says: "Phil Green, at Parker Hannifin's industrial division, explains how the latest nitrogen-generation technology can help food and beverage companies increase their operational efficiency and cut costs. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Wilcoxon Research, Accelerometers obtain hazardous-area certification, as well as SGS inspects storage tanks at refinery from SGS SA - Industrial Services, and JTT uses Exide gel batteries and SP chargers from Exide Technologies.
