TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION


ew from Aerco, the Fultech UF60D is an AC axial fan with a frame size of 60 x 60 x 30mm - the smallest available frame size for an axial AC fan.

Solenoid Valve Housing


360°, enabling easy cable layout and ease of connection wiring. The solenoid internals rotate with the housing to prevent cables being pulled out of the terminal block, to accommodate equipment building benefits. Within these benefits, this new valve technology can be mounted in any orientation to simplify and ease installation along with a spacious enclosure for ease of wiring, which in turn saves space and installation time.Within the safety and environmental benefits, all our FP solenoid valve assemblies have SIL 3 third party certification to IEC 61508. With an operating temperature range of - 60°C to + 95°C and worldwide approvals Ex d, Ex ia & Ex emb. This range of products include solenoid valves for dry or moist air, gas and fluid control medias and with 316L stainless steel bodies, making this valve assembly the most universal type on the market. The solenoid design incorporates an armature plate coil holder mechanism which ensures the valve will operate in damp conditions and reducing the risk of corrosion to internal components.

This powerful fan is ideal for cooling


small, densely packed electronic enclosures or housings that will not accommodate the previously smallest fan frame size of 80 x 80 x 25mm. With a noise emission of only 28dBA at the maximum airflow of 4.8 litres/sec (10.24CFM), the UF60D can be used with confidence in noise sensitive applications such as desk top or medical instrumentation. Available in 100/115 VAC and 200/230 VAC versions at 50/60Hz, it has an all-metal frame, a die-cast aluminium housing and an impeller of plastic UL-94VO.


A precision ball bearing


system ensures a life expectancy of 40,000 hours at 40ºC, the operating temperature range is -40ºC to + 70ºC and the fan carries UL, CSA, CE and VDE approvals.

Axair new range of filter fans A


xair Fans now offers Fandis new generation of “FF” filter fans dedicated for electrical enclosures and control


panels. The fixation system has been improved in order to accommodate thicker steel plates (up to 8mm), and still offering the fast assembly ‘click-fit’ system with elastic hooks. The filter media is more easily accessible by removing the front cover by hand without the need for tools. All other maintenance operations are only possible from inside the enclosure. The improved sealing gasket is fitted between the filter unit and the enclosure, and is now completely hidden. Like the current range of “FPF” filter fans, the new “FF” range is available in both colours RAL7032 or RAL7035, a choice of voltages ac or dc, enhanced protection to IP55 standards, and choice of airflow direction.

An option to stainless steel perhaps? T


• 0.1...20bar adjustment ranges • BSP taper, parallel and metric thread options • N/O or N/C contacts (42v max) • NBR, EPDM or FKM seal options • IP65 (when used with Suco cover)


Pressure switch point is easily set by adjusting the central screw or alternatively we can supply them pre-set to your specification!

valves, trapped key interlocks and key switches in any combination. The PV+ is suitable for the isolation of a pneumatic power source and is conventionally key-free, but the revised modular design allows the unit to be used in conjunction with other functional modules, giving the user flexibility. The PV+ has been designed to complement the Fortress mGard range of mechanical key interlocks for heavy applications, which work by releasing and trapping keys in a predetermined sequence to ensure safe operation of dangerous machinery; access is not permitted until a safe condition has been achieved. With the new PV+, a combination of isolation/access keys is possible, with sequential or non-sequential key operation available. Because mGard is designed to be modular, it is possible to add modules to create unique configurations.

he brass 0167 pressure switch from Suco is a low cost option to stainless steel pressure switches used in pressure control circuits in water applications. Most people think that a stainless steel switch is the only option for water systems due to the potential for corrosion but that is not always the case.


For standard clean water brass is often as resilient to corrosion as


stainless steel at a fraction of the price! The 0167 has a range of features enabling it to be used in a wide range of applications:
