NEW MINIATURE COAXIAL REED RELAY FOR HIGH-SPEED RF SYSTEMS UP TO 3GHZ
Pickering Electronics, the reed relay company
which has pioneered miniaturization and high performance for over 50 years, has launched a new miniature coaxial reed relays for high frequency RF systems up to 3GHz. Series 113RF SIL/SIP reed relays feature a 2mm spacing footprint, enabling them to be stacked at very high densities.
When asked “When would reed relays be the best solution for RF and high
speed, digital switching systems?” Kevin Mallett, Technical Specialist at Pickering Electronics answered: “These small, screened reed relays are faster and smaller than electromechanical relays (EMR), have a lower insertion loss and better DC capabilities than solid state relays (SSR), and better hot switching performance than micro- electromechanical machine (MEM) products.”
Series 113RF reed relays are suitable for switching up to 10W, 0.5A. 1 Form A configurations (SPST normally open) are available with 3V or 5V coils with coil resistances of up to 100/300 ohms respectively.
At low levels, the typical life expectancy of Series 113RF reed relays is greater than 250 million reliable operations. The relays employ the highest quality instrumentation grade reed switches with sputtered ruthenium contacts and are ideal for automatic test equipment.

CYGNUS LAUNCHED A BRAND NEW EX CERTIFIED THICKNESS GAUGE!
T
he wait is finally over. Visitors to our stand at the Materials Testing Exhibition were first to see the much anticipated, new Cygnus Ex-certified product in the flesh. Now, it’s time to reveal what the new Cygnus 1 Ex Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge is all about! This rugged, IP67-rated, intrinsically- safe instrument is specially designed to take reliable thickness measurements in Zone 0 Explosive Atmospheres, including chemical, oil and gas facilities. Like its predecessor, the Cygnus 1 Ex is the world’s only UTG certified to ATEX, IECEx, UKEX for Zone 0 and NRTL for Class 1, Division 1. But the Ex takes a giant leap forward, offering impressive selectable features including live A-Scan, comprehensive data- logging and manual measurement mode - bringing Cygnus’ Intrinsically Safe offering up to a whole new level.

https://qd-uki.co.uk/ ELECTROSERV EXPANDS INTO THE SOUTH WITH 6-FIGURE INVESTMENT Electroserv has invested £250,000 in flagship calibration facility and service hub in the south of England.
Expanding into the south of England will mean our customers’ instruments will spend less time in transit, and therefore reduce the amount of travel and ultimately the associated carbon footprint.”
Simon continued: “In just half an hour, instruments can be fitted, tested and removed. The system is also fully programmable to accommodate the vast range of requirements our customers expect from a flagship facility,” which includes:
T
o meet the needs of process industry customers throughout the country, Electroserv has launched a new service hub, which comprises a wet flow calibration rig and electrical, temperature and pressure calibration facilities, as well as meeting and office space. The new facility is Electroserv’s second dedicated calibration centre in the UK. Simon Fisher, Electroserv Managing Director commented: “The new hub houses our flagship flowrig which is part of our collaboration with Endress+Hauser. The flagship rig is the most accurate calibration system in the UK, and the state-of-the-art facility will ensure compliance with marginal process interruption for our customers. “We’re committed to integrating sustainable, agile processes to our operations.
•Flowmeter sizes up to 3-inch diameter •Flow rates from 0.001m3/hr to 80m3/hr •Measurement uncertainty of ±0.1% o.r. •Pressure ranges from -1bar to 100bar •Temperature ranges from -30oC to 1600oC •UKAS accreditation to ISO 17025 •Certificate of calibration supplied
The Bramley calibration facility has also provided opportunities for employment in Basingstoke and beyond, with 6 jobs created, covering a variety of roles including technicians, engineers, marketing and sales.
