In MENNEKES' last blog post, they discussed their non-metallic, curved-top CDS disconnect switches with an optional three-position selector switch, saving valuable installation space, reducing parts and improving safety for maintenance personnel. These same features and benefits also extend to their sloped-top stainless steel motor disconnects, which incorporate a 15-degree sloped roof to facilitate liquid run-off in washdown applications.
Built on a foundation of precise superheat control, the Danfoss TD1 thermostatic expansion valve now features a more sustainable stainless-steel capillary tube and sensing bulb. As part of our industry-leading portfolio of low- and ultra-low GWP compliant solutions, the TD1 delivers up to 15% more energy savings and up to 20% reduction in pull-down time under actual operating conditions compared to capillary tubes.
In addition to robustness, individuality and high torque, industrial gear units are often associated with long delivery times. We are now bringing an end to these long delivery times. Our delivery time offer ATO 5 is now joined by ETO 15. For you, we will be faster and deliver your solution promptly - whether from our modular system or with customer-specific adaptations.
HELUKABEL, an international manufacturer and supplier of cables, wires and cable accessories, recently announced its MULTIFLEX 512®-PUR UL/CSA and its shielded variant (MULTIFLEX 512®-C-PUR UL/CSA) are now certified according to the internationally recognized Norwegian Electrotechnical Committee (NEK) standard TS 606, which defines the requirements for halogen-free cables that are resistant to drilling mud. This approval is found primarily in applications associated with the oil and gas industry.

One of the most important things during a machine installation is to ensure the flatness of the base. With the new XT20 and XT22 we have facilitated handling, which makes for faster measurements and fewer fault sources. More reliable machine installation, put simply. Both transmitters can be used for flatness and straightness measurement. In addition, the XT22 can direct the laser beam at 90 degrees to the laser plane, which means you can solve virtually all types of geometric measurement jobs. The area of use therefore does not stop at measuring the flatness of bases. The XT22 also has a higher technical specification for straightness thanks to fiber laser technology, and can take measurements at distances up to 40 m. The XT20 can take measurements at distances up to 20m but is also IP55 rated water and dust proof.
SEW‑EURODRIVE will soon offer its customers the opportunity to use modern PT1000 temperature sensors for winding temperature analysis. The PT1000 temperature sensors serve as a replacement for the KTY sensors, which were discontinued by the manufacturer, and will be available for selection in numerous SEW‑EURODRIVE products under the option designation "PK."
This inline flow switch is a flow/no flow device with the ability to detect flow in either direction. It is key for applications where detection of flow direction is desirable or where undesired reverse flow is possible and must be prevented to avoid system damage. The FS-B is capable of rigorous application demands, high temperatures, media compatibility, and low pressure drop.

Put to the Ultimate Test – Part 1: Torsion Tests by HELUKABEL
Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.
For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
