The latest addition to Bulgin’s waterproof Ethernet Buccaneer connector system is a new EMI shielded backshell.

While Ethernet Buccaneer is a fully shielded system, the plastic panel connector, PX0833, does not have a natural bond or earth path to a metal chassis. The PX0833/E provides one solution with a short earth lead but there are occasions where complete shielding is required. This new metal backshell, PX0888, fits around the connector to provide a complete 360 degree bond to the panel therefore closing any potential EMI/RFI windows.

Assembly is very straightforward; the screening can fixes to the rear of the panel using the existing connector panel nut and a cover provides continuity between the connector screen and the can.

This simple accessory maintains screening directly to panel so will eliminate any potential EMC issues when using a plastic connector in electrically noisy environments.

Along with the recent introduction of two panel mounting connectors with PCB and IDC terminations this new shielding backshell further expands the uses of this popular IP68 rated Ethernet connector range.

Schurter’s MSM metal switch series has been extended to include a version with a double pole contact system. The new MSM DP switch is designed with two separate switching contacts. The separate contacts can be used as normally open, normally closed or as change-over. The MSM DP is ideal for potential free momentary switching action of electrical equipment. Furthermore, the switch can be used in applications where an additional second contact is required for a safety circuit. Typical applications are emergency switches where the control loop is switched, and in addition a second circuit for emergency services is activated.

Due to its flat front construction of 1.7 mm, a protection class of IP67 and a high shock resistance, the switch is extremely robust against vandalism. The MSM DP is available in mounting dimensions 19, 22 and 30 mm. The standard type is designed with switching capacities up to 3A / 250 VAC and 5A / 125 VAC respectively. For applications having other switching capacities, alternative variants are available on request. For night applications or where optical status indications are desired, point and ring illuminated versions in different colours are available.

Wieland Electric has completed its selos DIN rail terminal block range with the addition of the WKN 6 TK instrument isolating terminal, a screw-type terminal specially designed for use in secondary circuits of measuring transformers.  

It short-circuits the current transformer for safe disconnection or separation of measuring devices, which prevents both overheating and generation of high voltages in the secondary winding.

The 500 Series is broad portfolio of air/gas, liquid and surface temperature probes that use Honeywell's NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistors.

Thermistors can be very effective in sensing temperatures of gases, liquids or solids because of their enhanced sensitivity. These small, easy to install probe assemblies support and position the thermistor elements within the media to be monitored as well as protect the thermistors against damage in use or handling. The assemblies also help direct thermal or fluid flow evenly across the thermistors for accurate temperature sensing.

The enhanced reliability, precision and stability of the 500 Series products allow the customer greater flexibility in temperature monitoring and control. The wide operating
temperature range is -60 °C to 300 °C [-76 °F to 572 °F] provides application flexibility.

The 500 Series is available in a wide variety of housing styles and materials, R-T (Resistance-Temperature) curves, mounting methods, mechanical interface, electrical interface and connector types to meet most applications.

In addition to custom configurations, a variety of existing designs is available.

Honeywell also offers RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) technology that may be packaged into probe assemblies for similar applications that may require an RTD linear output instead of an NTC thermistor output.

FEATURES
• Air/gas, surface, immersion and liquid level
• NTC type output
• Enhanced sensitivity
• Small package size
• Easy to install
• Enhanced reliability
• Enhanced accuracy
• Enhanced stability/low drift
• Wide operating temperature range
• Wide variety of probe assembly styles
• Custom configurations available
• RTD linear output available

POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
• Industrial: HVAC, refrigeration, office automation, air compressors, industrial ovens and  ranges, hydraulic systems, processing and packaging, power generation
• Transportation: heavy duty or sport vehicle engine oil, air inlet, fuel, coolant or surface temperature sensing
• Aviation: engine bleed air or environmental control systems
• Weather stations

The latest addition to Bulgin’s extensive range of Vandal Resistant Stainless Steel Switches is a new double-pole version.

Rated at 3A 125Vac, the new MPD031 has double pole changeover switching. The switch retains the same rugged construction as others in the range, the barrel and button are CNC turned from high grade stainless steel to produce a very strong, rugged switch capable of withstanding abuse. Three profiles as are available; low profile, prominent and domed, and the switch is front panel sealed to IP66.

The panel cut-out, 19mm diameter, and external dimensions remain the same as the single pole MP0031 making the MPD031 suitable as a drop in replacement, therefore it is ideal for applications where more complex switching is required but without taking up any more real estate on the panel.

The new and first of its kind power entry module, Schurter series 5707, advances the range of applications in the area of detachable power. It offers an alternative to makeshift accessories often used to prevent particles or liquids from entering into the appliance. The new power entry module is resistant to dirt, dust and other fine particles, as well as sprays, splashes and jets of non-aggressive liquids. It is ideal for use in electronic equipment exposed to leaks, drips and spills, as well as equipment subject to routine washing or disinfecting.

The inlet portion of the 5707 is according to IEC 60320-1, style C14 or C18. It is combined with a 1-or 2-pole fuse holder and a standard or medical EMC filter rated up to 8 Amps at 250 VAC. The complete unit is rated IP65 with seal protection at the panel opening, around the fuse holders and between the inlet and connector pins. The seal at the panel opening is achieved with a rubber lining, which is fixed into a groove around the metal flange. Front or rear mount versions are available. Special screws guarantee the sealing at the mounting holes.  The fuse holders are independent of each other and accept 5x20 mm fuses. Screw caps with o-rings are used to provide a seal between the cap and holder. A tool is required to remove the cap from the holder to replace the fuse, which is required for medical equipment.

The 5707 offers pre-wired electrical connections, using 6.3x0.8 quick connect terminals. The series is approved according to ENEC, UL & CSA. Versions for protection class I or II are available, as well as a version with special class I capacitors for increased voltage withstand. The module is according to medical standards IEC/UL 60601-1 and is ideally suited for use in medical applications such as diagnostic, dialysis and infusion devices, as well as commercial appliances such as drink dispensing equipment.
