Data acquisition
headquartered supplier of high-performance connectivity solutions that are world-renowned for their ruggedness and resistance to demanding operating conditions such as marine and underwater, defence and security, medical and test and measurement. “The technology partnership with Fischer
Connectors is a logical step forward in our record-breaking ambition,” explains van den Broek. “The innovations we’re putting in place to enhance our boat’s aerodynamics above water and minimise the friction of its hull and foil under water need to be monitored during the boat’s development phase as well as during the speed run itself. To ensure the efficient transfer of these monitoring data, we need a solutions provider that has not only expertise in signal integrity and data transmission and management, but also a holistic approach to electronic systems in order to provide the end-to-end connectivity solutions required for our sensing system.” During the design phase, sensors are used to

improve and control the robustness of the high- performance materials (carbon, titan, stainless steel) of the boat’s structure. Thanks to the design of the super-ventilated foil, stability is optimised and the impact of cavitation - a phenomenon in which water starts boiling around foils at extreme velocities, slowing the boat down - is avoided. During the speed run, data are collected from the various electronic modules and control sensors directly integrated into the boat, and from the monitoring sensor communications between the pilot and the

technical crew on shore, including biometric data transferred through sensors worn on the pilot’s body such as vital and security parameters. “The SP80 project is exciting and inspiring,”
says Fischer Connectors’ CEO Jonathan Brossard, “as it combines innovation and performance to push the boundaries of physical laws thanks to unique solutions and daring concepts. One member of the SP80 R&D team is part of our own R&D centre, making the exchange of expertise all the more efficient and easier. We look forward to discovering the
technological breakthroughs on which the SP80 team is working, and which Fischer Connectors is proud to support.” The final design of the boat for the record will
be revealed to the public in spring 2022. The launching of the boat will take place at the end of 2022, while the first tests are scheduled in the south of France for the spring or autumn of 2023 - the two periods of the year that offer the best weather conditions for sailing.

Inert Solenoid Pumps
The Lee Company now has a complete range of solenoid operated fixed volume dispense pumps.
The pumps feature a revolutionary port head design that allows tubing connec tions and manifold mounting. This enables the designer to test the fluidic system using connections to soft tubing, and then once the system design has been finalized, the same pump can be manifold mounted using standard O-rings.
The electrical interface of the pumps feature a contoured end cap that provides secondary connector reten tion and is compatible with standard AMP connectors.
12 or 24vdc
10, 25, 50, 100 or 175μL dispense per Shot Inert wetted materials Low power consumption
