‘Solid State Relay’

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 Split roller bearings used on colliery conveyors from Revolvo: "SRB Split Roller Bearings from Revolvo are being used at the Hatfield Colliery near Doncaster. ".

In November 2009, we covered the news from Leuze Electronic - take a look at Leuze switches offer distances up to 40mm which says: "Leuze has expanded its range of high-quality inductive proximity switches, including models with switching distances of up to 40mm. ".

Take a look also at the news release from Stealth Computer Corporation, LPC-395F fanless PC features removable storage, as well as Maplesoft solution enables fast model development from Adept Scientific, and Educational package models material responses from Field Precision.
