Emergency power system supply testing and reporting system is designed to meet Joint Commission requirements. System provides secure, certified record of all EPSS activities through a single web-based application, and is compatible with other manufacturers’ equipment, including legacy switches and generators and existing IT infrastructure. Testing of generators and automatic transfer switches, at single or multiple sites, can be completed remotely, as can report generation.

Encorp Circle 451

Natural-gas generators expand manufacturer’s existing line of liquid-cooled commercial products, with new high-speed value models featuring 20 kW to 45 kW outputs and 3,600 rpm operation, and lower-speed models feature 18 kW to 45 kW outputs and 1,800 rpm operation.

Generac Circle 452

Interface module is designed as an add-on to manufacturer’s network-connected data acquisition and alarming products. Unit offers eight isolated, high-resolution, 16+ bit, universal bipolar analog inputs, increasing overall channel count to a possible 128 total inputs. The add-on connects to existing data-logging device with standard CAT 5 cable, allowing it to be positioned up to 30 ft. away.

Logic Beach Circle 454

Motor control center offers features to help prevent injury from electric shock, arc-flash burn and arc-blast impacts. Units include an insulated, horizontal bus, an insulated labyrinth vertical bus, shutters to isolate the vertical bus and finger-safe components. Optional remote-operated racking device allows operators to advance and retract stabs from up to 25 feet away. Other features allow safe access with exposure to the main bus voltage.

Eaton Corp. Circle 455

Diesel-powered generators comply with latest EPA regulations, with models ranging from 20 kW to 565 kW, in open and sound-attenuated designs. Features include industrial-grade paint finishes, rounded corners, noise limits down to 62 db, and weather-resistant aluminum hardware.

Triton Power Circle 453

Switching AC-DC power supplies are appropriate for all general-purpose applications. Units feature a standard 90- to 264-volt universal input and a two-year warranty, and provide for a range of output voltages and other specifications to meet each customer’s needs. Manufacturer’s ALS series is best suited for 30 watt to 75 watt applications, while AWSP series is designed for 40 watt to 150 watt uses. Models also are available with power-factor correction standard.

Master Distributors Circle 456

Downtime reduction system monitors fusible manufacturing equipment and notifies personnel when circuits open, providing information on circuit location, required replacement fuse sizes and appropriate personal protective equipment. Users also can quantify mean-time-to-repair statistics and analyze circuit activity for underlying electrical problems. Systems include intelligent fuse and circuit-breaker monitors and wireless mesh routers, which enable remote web-based access.

Cooper Bussmann Circle 457

Transient-voltage surge suppressor features a patented, thermally protected metal oxide varistor that does not require added overcurrent protection. Units provide IP-20 grade “finger-safe” protection, are DIN-rail mountable and meet UL-1449 second-edition revisions. Typical applications include AC/DC power distribution, high-voltage power supplies, telecommunications equipment and UPS and security systems.

Ferraz Shawmut Circle 458

Surge-protection system is rated at 65 kA AIC fault current and tested to IEC 61643-1 standards, and meets UL-1449 second-edition requirements. Units come with either NEMA 12 steel enclosures or NEMA 4X fiberglass-composite enclosures, with modular surge cards to ease installation and maintenance. Models also feature SASD/MOV hybrid or MOV technology and are available in various electrical configurations.

Transtector Systems Circle 459

Interface module is designed as an add-on to manufacturer’s network-connected data acquisition and alarming products. Unit offers eight isolated, high-resolution, 16+ bit, universal bipolar analog inputs, increasing overall channel count to a possible 128 total inputs. The add-on connects to existing data-logging device with standard Cat 5 cable, allowing it to be positioned up to 30 ft. away.

Logic Beach Circle 460

Natural-gas generators expand manufacturer’s existing line of liquid-cooled commercial products, with new high-speed value models featuring 20 kW to 45 kW outputs and 3,600 rpm operation, and premium lower-speed models feature 18 kW to 45 kW outputs and 1800 rpm operation.

Generac Circle 461

UPS system is designed to meet needs of semiconductor fabrication, process-control, manufacturing and industrial applications with N+1 redundancy and a scalable platform. The hardwired units support connection to any 208-240 volts AC single-phase, 2-wire plus ground power source. Models are available to support single, isolated 208-240 volts AC, 2-wire plus ground source, and isolated 240/120 volts AC split-phase 3-wire plus ground output. Units can be connected in parallel up to 24 kVA, communicating via a proprietary high-speed bus.

Falcon Electric Circle 462

Power meter is designed to replace analog units and can be used for stand-alone metering in custom panels, switchboards, switchgear, gensets, motor control centers and UPS systems. Units can be mounted without tools and feature mounting depth of 50 mm, and integrate with manufacturer’s existing energy-management systems. Tracked variables include power, demand, energy, power factor and frequency, with IEC certification for basic sub-billing and cost allocation. Remote monitoring and control capabilities are included, along with 15 user-configurable alarms.

Schneider Electric Circle 463

Inverter phase-check module enables rapid checking of inverter-controlled air-conditioning equipment. Unit instantly analyzes problem scenarios to determine whether inverter or compressor is at fault.
