BB has launched a full range of IEC Food Safe motors designed for applications in the food and beverage industry that need frequent
sanitation. The new IEC Food Safe motors are part of ABB’s Food Safe family that includes stainless steel NEMA motors, mounted ball bearings and gearing.
IEC Food Safe motors feature smooth stainless steel enclosures that are easy to clean and sanitise so customers can meet increasingly stringent hygiene standards. The motors’ enclosures have an IP69 water protection rating, while encapsulated winding enable the motors to last much longer than general purpose products in tough washdown conditions.
The external surfaces of the motors are self-draining, with no crevices where particles can collect. The markings are laser etched onto the frame, avoiding channels and
ridges where contaminants could accumulate. The motors can withstand high pressure sprays and are fully compatible with clean-in-place (CIP) methods. Food Safe motors also eliminate the need for motor shrouds, which can harbour food particles and allow bacteria to breed.
ABB IEC Food Safe motors are available in the power range 0.18-7.5 kilowatt, in 2-6 pole versions for 230-690 volt at 50 or 60 hertz. They feature IE3 premium efficiency to reduce energy consumption and emissions. Flexible mounting arrangements ensure they will fit almost any application. The motors come in frame sizes 71-132.

Schaffffner new generation of AC line reactors fefeature optimised design and best cost-perfoformance ratio
he new Schaffner RWK 3044 and RWK 3062 line reactors are designed for 400 VAC and 690 VAC power networks and provide impedance of 4% and 2%, respectively. The new line reactors are suitable for the most demanding industrial environments while still being very compact. Up to 50% weight reduction in comparison to former generations of AC line reactors can be achieved
T
Installation of the new Schaffner AC line reactors unburdens the electrical infrastructure making its utilisation more efficient and reliable, extending the service life cycle of electrical equipment and reducing energy costs. The new reactors are easy to install and maintain and are fully supported in Schaffner’s power quality simulator Schaffner PQS3 for a quick and accurate performance check.
AC line reactors are an economical solution to reduce harmonic currents, limit inrush currents and to protect variable frequency drives (VFD). And provide an overall improvement of the true power factor and the quality of the input current waveform. Incorporating Schaffner line reactors avoids severe damaging phenomena such as commutation notches are reduced to comply with the recommended notch depth and notch area as per IEEE519-2014 (C.1).
Schaffner RWK 3044 AC line reactors are rated from 380 VAC to 415 VAC, with current ratings from 2 A to 1000 A ,
available as open frame product (IP 00) and can be operated at an ambient temperature of 45°C without derating while the RWK 3062 series are rated from 500 VAC to 690 VAC with current rating from 1.5 A to 870 A. They are
and up to 100°C with derating.

ow available from HBM – a market leader in the field of test and measurement – is the new SP8 single-point load cell, which provides a precise and cost-effective solution for multi-head combination weighers.
Designed to meet the requirements of today’s dynamic weighing applications, the new SP8 single-point load cell features a compact design and can be easily integrated into a range of multi-head combination weighers.
Built for capacities ranging from 5 to 100 kg, the SP8 load cell from HBM provides greater accuracy and features a C3 accuracy class for reliable results.
Manufactured in stainless steel, the PW12C load cell has an IP67 degree of protection rating, meaning that the range is dustproof, protected against low-pressure water jets, and can be immersed in water up to 1 m, for up to 30 minutes. Developed for use in dynamic weighing applications, the SP8 is the latest offering from the HBM range of single point load cells, which offer precise results at an outstanding price-performance ratio.
