‘Voltage Spikes’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Saft presents battery technologies at EP Shanghai from Saft Industrial Batteries, which we summarised at the time by saying "Saft is showing its portfolio of battery technologies developed to meet the specific needs of renewable energy applications for efficient and reliable energy storage solutions. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Inertial releases single-axis angular rate sensors from Inertial Aerosystems UK: "Inertial Aerosystems has announced the availability of a range of low-cost MEMS single-axis angular rate sensors on a small PC board. ".

In June 2009, we covered the news from Baldor UK - take a look at EISA-compliant motors now available in Europe which says: "Baldor has announced European the availability of NEMA three-phase motors that meet the energy efficiency demands required by the US's forthcoming Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA). ".

Take a look also at the news release from HBM UK, T12 digital transducer targets lower torques, as well as NI announces PXI Express-based test instruments from National Instruments, and Variohm supplies sensors for floodlighting system from Variohm Eurosensor.
