PCB-MOUNT SHROUDED SOCKETS PRODUCTS
TECHNOLOGY FILE
New from Cliff Electronics are PCB-mount 4mm shrouded sockets which can mate with both safety shrouded and unshrouded plugs. The right-angled design reduces strain between the PCB and the lead, increasing reliability and product lifetime. The test sockets are designed for mating with industry standard 4mm plugs and available in black, red, green, blue, brown and yellow. Contacts are gold plated socket and rated at 1000V, 24A, CAT III. The sockets are suitable for a wide range of
applications including automotive diagnostic, industrial, medical, music industry, instrumentation, education, and bench and hand-held electrical testing equipment.
Cliff Electronics can supply jack sockets, DC power connectors, terminal binding
posts, test connectors and leads, optical jacks and leads and waterproof connectors and are leaders in the design and manufacture of standard and FeedThrough connectors which mount into an industry standard XLR, 23mm cutout.

The Termitrab complete product family from Phoenix Contact features the narrowest protection against overvoltages, with an overall width of just 3.5mm per protective device. According to the company, the device’s dimensions play a key role in measurement and control technology applications. Such applications often require a large number of signals, each needing appropriate protection. The portfolio of narrow surge
protective devices has now been extended. Protective devices with an overall width of 6mm are available for practically all signal technology applications. The range stretches from the protection of individual signal wires right through to the protection of four- conductor applications. The remote signalling option and
disconnect knives are available in a number of circuit versions. Protective devices are also available with the same overall width for data and telecommunications applications. The Termitrab complete portfolio also provides a wide range of products for Ex applications.

ULTRA-LOW POWER WIRELESS MESH MODULES SUPPLIED TO IOT SENSOR SOLUTIONS PROVIDER
NeoCortec is providing its sub-GHz ultra-low power wireless mesh modules to German IoT sensor solutions provider Rocknitive.
Due to the distributed measuring points in a building or engine room of a ship for example, Rocknitive had decided to use a Mesh-Net on battery and sub-GHz for better penetration of the walls. The low- energy sensors from Rocknitive work with batteries and transmit any information wirelessly. Therefore the very low power consumption of the NeoMesh sub-GHz ultra-low power wireless mesh modules from NeoCortec makes them an ideal choice for Rocknitive as they can run on two AA batteries for several years with low installation and operating costs. Also operating on sub-GHz enables the

NeoMesh modules to penetrate walls easily. Mike Lohmann, CEO of Rocknitive, said: “We
compared different mesh-net protocols and NeoMesh from NeoCortec fully meets our technical requirements. Many protocols do not operate on sub-GHz (868/915 MHz) and require permanently on routers and gateways with high energy consumption. Some do not even meet the European duty cycle. With most protocol stacks, there may only be one gateway in the wireless network. NeoMesh from NeoCortec has a very low power consumption and allows multiple gateways. Moreover, due to the preset functions, such as analogue input, digital input and I2C bus, a prototype is easy to implement for our customers. No complex network planning is required.”

HEAVY DUTY INCREMENTAL ENCODER ADDED TO RANGE
Wachendorff Automation now offers a heavy-duty variant in the compact 36mm design of its incremental encoders in the WDGP series, as well as absolute encoders in the WDGA series. This version is characterised by a very high bearing load of 300N axial and radial, as well as the increased protection class of IP69k. This makes these encoders fit for high pressure/steam jet cleaning. They are specially designed for applications in harsh environments, such as mobile machinery, in the food industry or even car washes.
