Electrical & Electronics EPack Power Controller Range for Optimal Adaptability Across Electrical Heating Applications Low Power Accelerometer Breaking from conventional IEPE power, the LPA100T operates from low voltage (3-5 volts) consuming less than 300 uWatts. The new Eurotherm™ by Schneider Electric™ EPack™ power controller range combines a high level of functionality and configurability with straightforward set up and operation. In addition, new circuitry minimizes settling time to less than ten milliseconds while still preserving 0.3 Hz low end frequency. Global certification to international standards and a robust design for high reliability in demanding environments allows it to be adapted to a wide spectrum of three phase applications and markets such as Heat Treatment for Aerospace and Automotive, Life Sciences, Semiconductor and Food & Beverage. The LPA100T is an ideal solution for wireless, battery-operated or energy harvesting applications due to its low power consumption. A built-in electronic temperature sensor provides additional machinery health data from the mounting location. The LPA100T is also available certified for use in hazardous areas (Class I, Div 2/Zone 2). www.eurotherm.co.uk/products/power-con- trol/power-controllers/epack KDP Electronics Systems 01767 651058 www.kdpes.co.uk 01903 268500 [email protected] EC centrifugal fans with motor enclosures Cooking contaminates the surrounding air with substances such as grease vapors and combustion gases, whilst also generating a lot of heat and moisture. That makes the installation of Air Handling Units (AHUs) necessary in commercial kitchens, in order to extract cooking odors while also supplying fresh air from outside. For this application, ebm-papst has developed a centrifugal fan with an EC motor outside the air flow. Special requirements Fans used in AHUs have to satisfy special requirements. According to VDI guideline 2052, which concerns ventilation systems for kitchens, their motors may not lie directly in the path of air flows bearing particulates. www.ebmpapst.co.uk quaterpageadapril18-2.qxp_Layout 1 18/04/2018 10:01 Page 1 KAIZEN TECHNOLOGY You think it, we build it!
