TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION enter 814 EFD® 787MS-SS MicroSpray™ Valve
New calibration accelerometer
innovative PiezoStar® based sensing element, first of its kind for a back to back sensor, which combines very good transient response with very low case/base strain sensitivity and a 50g range. The accelerometer is designed specifically for use as a transfer standard for calibrating accelerometers and is equally suited to laboratory and field applications. accelerometer is
T Kistler’s most accurate
The new and
repeatable low impedance, back-to-back, vibration calibration standard and features low base strain, long-term and thermal stability and high frequency response. Due to its unique shear design, it offers minimum sensitivity to shaker lateral rotation (rocking motion). A beryllium mounting base, lapped optically flat, provides optimum coupling between Type 8080 and the accelerometer being calibrated. Contained within the housing is a piezoelectric system consisting of a seismic mass preloaded to a PiezoStar element and miniature hybrid electronics. This combination yields a high level, low impedance voltage output signal proportional to the accelerating stimulus.

applications, has launched two connectors from Lumberg Automation - designed specifically for establishing industrial Ethernet connections in applications with challenging conditions, such as railway and on machine. The RSCIS 4D/9 and BRSCIS
B 4D/9 connectors feature insulation-
displacement connector (IDC) technology for a highly-reliable and efficient data connection in unforgiving environments. “Our customers not only want connectors that can withstand the harshest
conditions, but also need a product
that’s easy to install, saves time, is flexible and improves their network’s efficiency and reliability,” said Fabian Seymer, product manager at Belden. “We’ve designed these new connectors with those needs in mind – resulting in a small size with fool-proof mounting characteristics – to make them easier to handle and install while out in the field.” Two versions of the Lumberg Automation connectors are available, each with specific features for certain applications:
• The RSCIS 4D/9 connectors are designed specifically to meet the safety and quality needs of automotive, machine building and material handling applications, and will also carry UL’s seal of quality in the near future.
36 NOVEMBER 2014 | AUTOMATION To offer network engineers, system integrators
and machine builders the most efficient solution for establishing EtherNet/IP and PROFINET connections in
the field, the new connectors
feature an innovative, patented IDC technology – which no longer requires installers to strip the wire of insulation before connecting. Through this concept, the connectors also require minimum force, saving both time and effort during assembly and mounting.

transmission he new Type 8080 back-to-back vibration calibration standard accelerometer uses an
ased on EFD’s proven Low Volume Low Pressure (LVLP) precision spray technology, the new 787MS-SS MicroSpray™ Valve provides fast, controlled application of a wide range of low- to medium-viscosity fluids, including solvents, lubricants and UV-cure coatings.
B The new 787MS-SS valve features an
innovative design that uses a small gauge disposable dispensing tip in place of a standard spray nozzle. This concentrates the LVLP air used to atomize the coating into uniform spray patterns as small as 1,6 mm in diameter—over 60% smaller than standard spray valve configuration.
Benefits include greater process control, faster throughput, fewer rejects and lower production costs.

• The BRSCIS 4D/9 connectors are proven for use in railway applications – according to Europe’s stringent DIN EN requirements – where vibration and inflammability are major concerns when it comes to transportation system reliability and the safety of the people traveling.
he new Explosives Regulations 2014 (ER 2014) and the Acetylene Safety (England and Wales and Scotland) Regulations 2014 (ASR 2014) come into force in November 2014. The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) has been working with stakeholders since 2010 to review existing legislation. One of the key aims has been to consolidate, modernise, and, where
T practicable, simplify the legislative
arrangements. Safety in the workplace is of paramount importance and ESAB is reminding the market that these new regulations embrace significant changes to acetylene safety within the United Kingdom. Until now, the use of a flashback arrestor with oxy-fuel gas systems was covered by best practice - but was not a legal requirement. With the new regulations, however, a flashback arrestor with a non-return device is becoming a mandatory requirement when using acetylene gas in individual portable, mobile cylinder supply or manifold systems. Those who are “duty holders,” or owners of a workplace which uses acetylene gas, are required to ensure that the appropriate device is fitted to an acetylene system.
