The Isolast K-Fab Seal from Trelleborg is designed to provide long-term sealing and increased productivity in high-temperature semiconductor subfab applications. This, the company explains, provides an alternative flange sealing solution to a traditional O-Ring, to prevent premature failure in extreme temperatures and aggressive chemical environments. Formulated from perfluoroelastomer
(FFKM), a custom seal geometry utilises significantly less rubber to eliminate overfill and extrusion, resulting in improved thermal properties, and elimination of thermal expansion and groove overfill. The seal geometry can withstand misalignment
of the flange when compared to an O-Ring, for easy assembly. According to the company, its optimal seal design increases performance, especially with varying pressure or vacuum conditions for increased service life and overall lower cost of ownership. The Seal is temperature
resistant for use up to +325˚C dependent on the material selection. The Isolast K-Fab Flange Seal
can be manufactured from a range of elastomer materials including Isolast FFKM, Isolast PureFab FFKM for ultra- high purity, FKM and PureFab FKM.

cost effective position sensing
A three-dimensional magnetometer for cost efficient position sensing has been introduced by Melexis. The LX90397 has a wide supply voltage (1.7 to 3.6 V) and is suited for battery powered appliances for both consumer and industrial applications. This 16-bit 3-axis sensor device has a
magnetic field range reaching 50mT (with an adaptive range on the z-axis of up to 200mT). The user can choose the fields to
measure among BX, BY, BZ, temperature or a combination. The sensing element relies on the proven Triaxis 3D Hall effect technology; and captured data is converted into a digital form and then transferred over an I2
C interface. MLX90397 is designed to address 1.8/2.2/3.3V applications; and its combination of a
low 7nA power down current and wide voltage supply range (1.7V to 3.6V) is ideal for battery powered applications. It not only provides maximum flexibility on the selection of the battery type (Alkaline, Lithium), but also ensures an extended usage. Being compact, the device is easy to integrate, while the supported operational
temperature range of -40˚C to 105˚C allows use in demanding industrial applications. Melexis

New from Advantech is the WISE-2410X explosion proof LoRaWAN wireless condition monitoring sensor, which provides 3-axis vibration inspection and temperature of equipment 24 hours a day. As well as meeting ISO 10816 standards, this is ATEX and IECEx (Zone 2 and Zone 21) certified for monitoring the vibration level of facilities in explosive environments. The sensor features an integrated ARM
Cortex-M4 processor, LoRa transceiver, 3-axis accelerometer and temperature sensor. It balances the wireless bandwidth between WISE-2410X and the gateway, mitigating the data transmission fail rates between edge-devices and gateways. It uses a star network topology and provides a gateway data relay function between sensors and the application server. The communication between the sensors and gateway goes over the

wireless channel, utilising the LoRa physical layer, while the connection between the gateways and the central server are handled over a backbone IP-based network or over Modbus protocol to the application server. Furthermore, a built-in ARM Cortex-M4
Processor enables WISE-2410X users to implement more internal features. The WISE- 2410X is a plug and play solution with LPWAN technology verified by Advantech and powered by internal 3.6V AA batteries. With its IP65 protection, WISE-2410X is ideal for Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) applications, such as pumps, HAVC system, motors, facility monitoring and more. WISE-2410X connects to Advantech’s WISE Studio Utility for more user friendly and efficient installation.

Cliff Electronics now offers three versions of its 1U high, 19in rack panels to facilitate assembly of its FeedThrough (FT) connector range into patch panels or control systems. These provide assembly of either 16 standard XLR format (24mm diameter panel cut out) connectors and 16 or 20 of the narrower DualSLIMS (17.15 × 22.86mm panel cut out) versions. This allows system designers to use the best-fit connectors for their systems and markets. The XLR version is fitted with a connector labelling strip on
the front and all versions have a cable strain-relief bar fitted at the rear. The FT Series of true feed through connectors are suitable for developing custom I/O configurations for wall- plates, rack panels, etc. They can be front or rear mounted and use standard cables for interconnecting. According to the company, the range allows designers to
integrate audio, video, digital, optical, networking and data feeds into professional equipment for broadcast, lighting, audio, and industrial applications. Versions of note include RJ45, HDMI, BNC and USB3.0 (single and dual). The range provides analogue, digital and optical feedthrough connectivity in formats including Firewire, HDMI A-to-A and 50Ω BNC versions, USB2 A-to-B and B-to-A changer sockets and USB3 to USB3 in various configurations. Also available are popular data and ethernet connectors including LC and SC fibre, (Duplex and Simplex), UTP and FTP RJ45s in both Cat6 and Cat5e, (shielded and unshielded), TOSLINK and RCA phono.
