Crouzet HIH Relays monitor the stadium lighting electrical network current in order to alert the maintenance team as soon as a failure occurs.

The Olympic Committee defines strict standards for stadium lighting. The luminosity must be uniform on surfaces during the games to ensure an equity between athletes and an optimal quality of television broadcasting.

To ensure a top quality lighting of the event, the regulation imposes a maximum duration of 20 minutes between the breakdown and the repair of a stadium projector. That is why it is key to equip each stadium and playing field with a system checking the operating condition of the headlamps.

Features:
• Control of AC and DC currents
• Automatic recognition of AC/DC
• Measurement ranges from 2 mA to 10 A
• Choice between over and undercurrent
• True RMS measurement
• Selectable latching (memory) function

Easy Wiring with a New Plug-In Connector

The 3120-N thermal circuit breaker is a single pole or double pole device which can also serve as an ON/OFF switch. Based on its cost-saving design - two functions in a single unit - it has become an integral part of many applications in medical equipment and in apparatus and machine construction. Manufacturers of professional tools also like to use it because of its compact design.

As a new accessory E-T-A offers a plug-in connector for easily wiring the connecting cables.  Two retaining clips ensure a tight connection between the plug-in connector and the breaker. The dimensions of the female contacts (tab width 6.3) are in accordance with DIN 46340 part 3, shape A. E-T-A standard delivery scope is without female contacts.

Benefits:
• Reduction of wiring time during final installation saves time and costs - The plug-in connector can easily be pushed on without tools with a single movement. Female contacts do not have to be plugged on individually.
• Wiring errors are excluded during final assembly - The plug-and-socket connection follows the key-lock-key-principle so that the plug cannot be pushed in the wrong way round (fool-proof).
• Cable contact with long-term stability - The cable lugs latch irreversibly in the connector. The clamping arms of the connector ensure an extremely firm connection between circuit breaker and connector.
• Pre-wiring can be ordered externally - This allows you to use the know-how of specialised cable assemblers.
• Breakers can be swapped quickly and easily - The "old device" can be pulled out with a single movement. Then just push in the new device. Done!

Protecting and Switching in a Single Component

E-T-A’s 3120-N is a single pole or double pole thermal circuit breaker with a bimetal trip element that also serves as an ON/OFF switch. After tripping due to overcurrent, the 3120-N can easily, reliably and quickly be reset. Time-consuming replacement of fuses is eliminated. The 3120-N circuit breaker/switch combination helps you significantly reduce mounting and wiring time as well as expenses for material planning and stocking expenses.

The 3120-N rocker version is available as non-lighted or lighted (12 V - 400 V) and offers various actuator colours as well as marking choices. The 3120-N push button includes the traditional red/green option as well as a unique offering of protection from accidental operation.

                   With Rocker Actuation:                                                With Push Button Actuation:

* Add-on modules for undervoltage release, magnetic trip, remote trip and auxiliary contacts are also available. Appliance inlet modules, plug-in connectors, terminal adapters and a range of additional accessories guarantee solutions for your challenging applications.

Benefits:
• No fuse replacement required - After tripping due to overcurrent, the 3120-N can easily, reliably and quickly be reset.
• Reduced mounting and wiring time - You only mount one component. In addition, cables to connect switch and blade fuse are eliminated.
• Reduced planning and storage costs - 3120-N replaces a switch, a fuse-holder and blade fuses. This makes purchasing logistics much easier.
• Space-saving design - The 3120-N features space-saving integral overcurrent protection. This leaves room for creativity and ideas in terms of space design, even in constricted areas.
• Enhanced reliability - Less single components always mean: less sources of error. E-T-A’s 3120-N helps you consistently increase the overall reliability of your products.

Applications:
• Household, Hobby & Garden Equipment
• Industrial equipment control
• Medical technology

ZF E-bike Speed Sensor Enriches the New Trend of ABS Applications

The ABS system has become indispensable in passenger and commercial vehicles. This safety function is also becoming increasingly popular for e-bikes. Bicycle accidents are often caused by uncontrolled braking, especially during emergency stops or braking on gravel and wet roads. The anti-lock braking system ensures a safe slowdown by evenly deaccelerating the front and rear wheels. To do this, the speed on both wheels must be measured constantly and precisely. The Hall-based speed sensor from ZF promotes this solution.

The ZF e-bike speed sensor GS82-AA02 was specially developed for use in Pedelecs and S-Pedelecs. Based on Hall technology, the sensor in combination with an external, ferromagnetic speed disk achieves a high-resolution speed measurement. The sensor targets the slot structure of the speed disc and, depending on the number of slots, it transmits up to 50 or more speed signals per wheel revolution. In practice, this leads to a finer and quicker response from the e-bike drive. The ABS system also benefits from the high resolution in speed. With the precise speed values of both wheels, the ABS control unit can adjust the wheels to each other and brake them in a controlled manner.

The extremely compact design (21.75mm long x 9.35mm in diameter) of the sensor fulfills the necessary requirements for the use in e-bikes. The speed sensor is based on the principle of the Hall effect and therefore it is contactless and wear-free. The differential measurement of the magnetic flux also increases the robustness of the sensor against vibrations. Depending on the customer's requirements the contact via connector, as well as the cable length, can be preselected individually. The sensor requires a constant voltage supply of 6.5 - 20 VDC and measures frequencies between 1 and 2,500 Hz. They are designed for a temperature range from -25 °C to + 85 °C to fulfill the declaration of conformity in the e-bike industry.

Characteristics
• Hall based non-contact and solid-state sensor
• Virtually unlimited life, no wear and tear from friction
• Immune to vibration, shock, dirt or water for an improved functional safety especially for Pedelecs, S-Pedelecs and E-Scooter
• Available standard product with Higo connector. Flexibility in terms of cable length and connector assemblies.
• High resolution in combination with speed and brake disk especially for slow speeds (e.g. hill starts)
• Hall sensor with speed disk for improved manipulation resistance and robustness
• Best suitable also for ABS-Systems
