Laboratory visit says development time


Testing of electronic products for a number of industries is offered by RN Electronics, including audio, medical, defence (DEF STAN 59-411 & MIL STD-461) and automotive (UNECE Regulation 10). The independent UKAS-accredited


laboratory provides testing to the latest EU Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMCD) and Radio Equipment Directive (RED). It also offers pre-compliance/initial assessment tests. It says valuable development time can often be saved


by a visit to its laboratory. The company provides accredited EMC and wireless testing for the USA and Canada.

Remote control systems are batteryless


Returning to Southern Manufacturing and Electronics, RF Solutions will showcase batteryless remote control systems, capable of up to 300m range with no additional power source. Using a secure, high-speed RF protocol, the Kapbox (pictured) and Kaptrap systems have a myriad


of possible applications. Stand H235


Lamp kit introduces electronics to students


Specialising in the design, testing and manufacture of innovative electronic systems, RVL is based in Kent. The electronics engineering company says that electronics it designs and


manufactures are providing innovative solutions, increasing productivity and efficiency, and even saving lives, in a variety of industry sectors. At this year’s show, it will


demonstrate an assembled board which a client is currently using in an electric paint lamp kit. The kit allows users to explore how


electronics work by making a lamp from scratch, without programming or other skills, making it a fun and educational gift.

RDP Electronics will introduce an alternative to integral signal- conditioning. The E74 series houses signal-conditioning in a compact in-line unit which is cost-effective, says the company, and allows the transducer part of the system to be specified to withstand very harsh environments including high temperature and radiation. The UK company


manufactures and markets transducers and instrumentation for the measurement of displacement, force, pressure and torque. It manufactures LVDT transducers and markets a range of industrial magnetostrictive sensors. For load cells (force or


weight), fluid pressure and torque (reaction or rotating) it offers strain-gauge technology from Honeywell’s Sensotec and Lebow ranges. Load cell full scale ranges run from 250g to over 1,000t. Pressure transducers (gauge, absolute or differential) are available from 35mbar to over 10,000bar. Torque transducers and systems have full scale capabilities from 70mNm to 2500Nm.

Switches and components meet marine and rail HMI needs


Supplying industries as diverse as sound and lighting, marine, automotive, rail, fire and security, RJS Electronics supplies switches and components for HMI. Amongst its range are popular


products such as brushed steel or anodised aluminium metal IP-rated switches (IP67 up to IP68). For PCBs, there are PCB side,


small RGB LED tact switches, large RGB switches, single pole,


double pole, momentary or latching versions. Customisation of switch ranges


can be adding 100mm to 20m cable to the terminals, or adding an illuminated symbol. For those who want to go the extra mile, the company offers a bespoke option to design custom switch caps (subject to MOQs).
