Finder has announced the introduction of a pair of panel thermostats designed to maintain constant temperature levels in control panels and enclosures.  Suiting the needs of both simple and sophisticated heating and ventilation systems, the 7T Series thermostats help to improve component reliability and preserve instrumentation accuracy through enhanced temperature setting and control.

With red or blue temperature setting dials to clearly identify the heating and ventilation variants, the 7T thermostats are IP20 rated and come in slim 17.5mm rail mounting housings, ensuring easy installation and usage in compact panel designs.

A temperature setting range of between 0 and 60ºC makes them suitable for a wide range of environments, while their snap action bi-metallic sensor means a positive switching action and a long electrical life (100,000 cycles).  The thermostats’ output contact (normally closed for heating control, normally open for ventilation control) is rated at 250VAC, 10A, enabling them to directly switch heater or fan loads up to 2500VA AC1 and 250VA AC15.

For Manufacturers who Need Accurate, Reliable, and Durable Non-Contact Rotary and Angle Position Sensing in Defense and Space Applications

The 1-Inch Series resolvers are manufactured and delivered up to 1.5 times faster than many competitors’ products, helping to meet special application requirements and minimize production time. With the launch of the Hawk™ Resolvers, Honeywell now offers two off-the-shelf versions, as well as resolvers that can be customized to meet specific end-user needs.

Potential defense applications for the 1-Inch Series include positioning for electro-optical systems, gimbals/communication pedestals, infrared systems, vehicle transmission systems, and test equipment. Potential space applications include positioning for satellite, satellite antenna, space station, and space
vehicle solar panel arrays.

The Hawk™ 1-Inch Series Resolvers offer several other competitive advantages, including:

* Shock specification of 50 g, 11 ms, vibration specification of 15 g, 10 Hz to 2000 Hz and wide operating temperature range of -50.8 °C to 93.3 °C [-60 °F to 200 °F] which allow for use in harsh military and aerospace applications;

* Wide excitation voltage range of 2 V to 15 V which allows customers to standardize on a resolver that meets their excitation voltage needs, simplifying sourcing and delivery, and saving time;

* Global support and over 30 years of resolver engineering expertise.

Unlike many rotary position sensors, the Hawk™ Resolvers offer sensing in harsh military and space environments. In addition to its non-contact design, the lack of electronics, and the use of space-qualified materials, the Hawk™ Resolvers meet multiple military/aerospace specifications: DO-160D, MIL-STD-202G, MIL-STD-810G, MIL-STD-81963B, MIL-STD-461F, andcomply with space outgassing requirement SP-R0022.

The fully housed configuration with bearing/shaft has a small outer diameter of 1 inch, which allows for use in size-restricted applications. The single speed operation (1 magnetic pole pair) allows for cost-effective angle resolution over a 360°+ range, and the wide excitation frequency range of 2000 Hz to 5000 Hz provides a wide variety of choices with which to power the device. The transformation ratio of 0.45 or 1.0 offers customers two choices, increasing flexibility within the application.

The Honeywell Hawk™ 1-Inch Series Resolvers are also available with a variety of options, including:

* Custom trim designed to allow tighter accuracy;
* Connections which include custom lead wire, cable, connector on unit, or connector on cable;
* Titanium housing which provides enhanced durability and resistance to corrosion; lightweight;
* Custom redundant version (two independent resolvers within the same housing) which provides reliable back-up/fail-safe in critical applications;
* Transformer for 360°+ rotation (continuous).
