IDEAL has released the latest generation of circuit tracers with refinements in performance, ease-of-use and safety with the SureTrace 959 Circuit Tracer Kit. User friendly features include receiver display rotating automatically for easy viewing, quickly identifies breakers and fuses with Certain Circuit detection, and effectively pinpoints open and shorts. IDEAL’s SureTrace 959 is equipped with a brilliant OLED displaying signal strength in 0-99 format and has an audible indication that intensifies in tone/pitch along with signal strength. The circuit tracer kit works on energized or de-energized circuits (0-600V AC/DC) with four sensitivity levels, peak reading bar graph and has a 2-year warranty.
The IDEAL Dual Laser Targeting Infrared Thermometer (IRT) is your go-tool for precise, non-contact temperature measurements. With a 12:1 distance-to-spot ratio, its dual laser targeting system uses two red lasers located above and below the IR sensor to outline the area being measured, ensuring pinpoint accuracy. The adjustable emissivity feature further enhances measurement precision, adapting to different surfaces for the most accurate readings. This versatile IRT displays the actual temperature along with four selectable additional measurements (MIN, MAX, AVG, DIF), and features user-programmable HI and LO alarms. It measures temperatures ranging from -26° to 932°F (-32° to 500°C), making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The backlit LCD display ensures visibility in poor or zero lighting conditions, and the laser targeting system can be toggled on or off as needed. Built for durability, the IRT includes an industrial-grade over-molding and a lanyard tie-off point for enhanced grip and drop protection. Additional features include HOLD, MIN/MAX/AVG/DIF readings, high/low visual and audible alarms, lock measurement for continuous monitoring (with the option to mount on a standard camera tripod), and selectable auto power-off functions. This Infrared Thermometer is a versatile, professional-grade tool that will quickly become an essential part of your toolkit.
The Unifox-MP multifunctional pliers with ergonomic two-component handle combine six or seven functions in a single tool. They make it possible to not only grip, bend, and cut wires, but also to strip cables and crimp ferrules. Their angled tip can be used to easily pierce and deburr flush-mounted sockets. While the Unifox MP 6-1 can be used to cut cables without crushing, the Unifox-MP 7-1 has a diagonal cutter. This means that fine, medium-hard, and piano wires can be effortlessly cut to length. In addition, the pliers provide a crimping area for insulated ring cable lugs. The Unifox-Wrench pliers wrench combines the functions of pliers and a wrench. Ideal for gripping, holding, bending, and turning nuts and bolts, it offers continuous adjustment via push button and an integrated scale for quick and easy setting of the wrench size. The smooth gripping jaws, which can be moved in parallel, protect sensitive surfaces against damage. Thanks to the leverage ratio of greater than 10:1, the pliers wrench ensures a high clamping force and therefore a secure hold. The Unifox-LM “Linemans” combination pliers are ideal for gripping, bending, and twisting wires as well as for pin crimping uninsulated cable lugs. The ergonomic two-component handle ensures comfort, while the toothed gripping surfaces and the additional gripping area below the joint provide optimum grip. With the extra-long blades with a cutting hardness of 62-64 HRC, the Unifox LM offers optimum cutting performance and durability.
The BS-WS MOUNTING TROLLEY serves as a workpiece carrier for control cabinets and mounting panels and can be adjusted manually to any height. The tilt adjustment allows different work steps to be carried out comfortably in a variety of positions. These functions result in optimized processes, better working conditions, and a significant increase in productivity. Customer benefits from a movable, adaptable solution that can be seamlessly integrated into various production concepts and enables back-friendly working in different positions.
Field termination of fiber optic cable connectors is nothing new, and while there have been various products to address field termination needs over the decades, the products discussed here are: field polish, mechanical splice, and fusion splice. Each of these has had time in the spotlight, and there are commonalities that hold true across all three. Chief amongst these is the need for cleanliness when terminating and installing fiber, so we will not spend time on that aspect.
Eaton’s Power Xpert Branch Circuit Monitor (PXBCM) provides remote access to live energy readings, and facilitates data integration for data center intensive industries, facilities working to optimize server capacity and companies with a critical need to maintain uptime. By combining monitoring capabilities down to the plug level with overload alerts, which indicate when circuits are close to exceeding thresholds, the PXBCM helps minimize or prevent downtime.

Advanced Motion Controls is proud to announce the addition of six new CANopen servo drives with Extended Environment capabilities to their FlexPro line. These new drives join AMC’s existing EtherCAT Extended Environment FlexPro drives, making the FlexPro line the go-to solution for motion control applications in harsh environments.
Many motion control applications take place in conditions that are less than ideal, such as extreme temperatures, high and low pressures, shocks and vibrations, and contamination. Electronics, including servo drives, can malfunction or sustain permanent damage in these conditions.

Mining operations run on power. Across crushing, conveying, hoisting, pumping, ventilation and mineral processing, electrical infrastructure keeps production moving and helps connect the assets, systems and people that make safe, efficient operations possible. But the same electrical systems that support higher productivity also introduce risk, especially in environments shaped by dust, moisture, vibration, remote locations,… Read More…

Electrical systems need to do more than deliver power—they need to protect the people and equipment that depend on them. While conventional circuit breakers protect against overloads and short circuits, another potentially dangerous electrical fault can occur without generating enough current to trip them: a ground fault. That’s why residual current protection is an important part… Read More…
