Infrared camera

The MikroScan 7400 thermal camera can be used for standard predictive maintenance monitoring of electrical cabinets, motors, and bearings. The camera features three selectable temperature ranges and is built around a high-resolution (320 × 240 pixels) microbolometer that resolves an area smaller than a tenth of a square inch at 6 ft. It also captures simultaneous visual images with on-board voice annotation. In addition to its on-board image storage capability, the camera can output real-time video in “S” format and NTSC/PAL.

Insulation testers

This family of 5kV and 10kV insulation testers includes three analog/digital models. The base model has five pre-programmed test voltages and measures to 15 TΩ on the digital scale. The next model features all the capability of the base mode plus a pass/fail alarm, data storage and downloading, and the ability to step up the voltage in 10V increments from 50V to 1,000V and in 25V increments beyond 1,000V. The top-of-the-line model includes all the capabilities of the other two plus a 10,000V range — and the ability to measure to 35 TΩ on the digital scale.

Double-throw safety switch

The Cutler-Hammer brand Quick-Connect double-throw safety switch is designed to provide a safe and efficient way to connect mobile generators or portable equipment rated from 30A to 800A to a facility's electrical system. The safety switch is a manual device consisting of two interlocked switches that cannot be on at the same time. The switches are vertically oriented — the upper switch is the “normal” switch, and the lower switch is the “backup power” switch.

Side-mount kits

These side-mount kits for the company's Cabinet Coolers are designed to provide convenient mounting to the side of an electrical enclosure for applications where top mounting is not possible due to limited space. The kits are suitable for use on large or small electrical enclosures with Cabinet Coolers that have cooling capacities up to 5,600 Btu/hr. Their applications include programmable controllers, variable-frequency drives, industrial computers, motor controls, microprocessors, and robotics.

Blunt-tip safety blades

These bi-metal blunt-tip safety blades are made using a patented welding process that fuses together two different types of steel. The blades can bend without breaking because of the flexible spring steel used to form the backing material. Their edges are formed from high-speed steel, and they feature a 90° blade junction to reduce the risk of accidental puncture wounds. The blades are configured with the industry standard two-notch design, which will fit most utility knives.

Lighting relay

The HDR heavy-duty relay is a panel relay that exceeds the new UL508 requirements for controlling electronic ballast lighting loads. Included with all of the company's lighting control panels, the relay features heavy-duty contacts made with special alloys to mitigate the negative effects of inrush currents and is rated up to 300,000 cycles. It also features a mechanically latching contact design to ensure the lighting remains on during a power outage.

Test terminal blocks

The WTL 4/2 STB disconnect test terminal blocks make it possible to open the bus bar in the terminal and for the adapter to make contact with a single action, assuring continuous operation of the circuit during the test procedure. With this disconnect test terminal block, the order in which disconnect and contact is made is determined by the length of the color-coded plastic log on the test adapters. It features a touch-safe design, and its combination-foot makes it suitable for TS-32 and TS-35 DIN rail mounting.

Power monitor

The Allen-Bradley Powermonitor 1000 is a power monitoring device that profiles a plant's energy consumption and usage data, providing manufacturers with information to better control and optimize energy costs. This power monitor is designed for basic applications, such as load profiling and cost allocation. It can be scaled to provide advanced capabilities, including wiring diagnostics, historical trending, and advanced networking. The monitor is available in five models — two transducers and three energy monitors — with features and price points addressing a wide range of requirements.

Load control device

The E-Mon D-Mon Class 3000 meter is now offered with a load control option designed to operate at user-selectable high and low set points. By proper selection of the high kW limit set point, the Class 3000 meter can be used to decrease electrical demand peaks by shedding loads or activating a local generator. The low kW limit set point allows the load to be returned to normal operating power independently as pre-set parameters are met. Load control functions are programmed via four buttons located inside the meter enclosure. A three-screw removable terminal block allows for connection to the controlled load.
