Minco: All-Polyimide thermofoil heaters

All-Polyimide heaters from Minco combine Kapton® insulation with polyimide adhesive to achieve a temperature rating of 260°C (500°F) - 60°C higher than previously possible with Kapton heaters and 25°C higher than silicone rubber heaters.  The new construction, called "AP", allows 100% more power - 100 watts per square inch (15.5 watts per square centimeter) - for faster warm-up and rapid response to changing heat loads.  The result is higher throughput in many thermal processes. 

AP heaters are suitable for vacuum use with outgassing less than 0.01% collected volatile condensable material.  They stand up to most processing and cleaning chemicals, making them an excellent choice for ultra-pure processes. Applications include semiconductor processing and test, avionics, packaging equipment, and graphics processors.  Heaters may be clamped to heat sinks or factory bonded with polyimide adhesives for complete thermal subassemblies.

Options include integral temperature sensors and flex circuit interconnects.  Heat patterns can be uniform or custom profiled for the specific application.  Profiling adds extra heat at loss points to improve the uniformity of the temperature across the heater.

measurement specialties: msp5100 series low cost pressure transducer

The MSP5100 Series from Measurement Specialties Inc. sets a new price/performance standard for pressure transducers in demanding OEM applications.  The MSP5100 exceeds the latest heavy industrial CE requirements including surge protection and is over voltage protected to 16VDC in both positive and reverse polarity.  The pressure port is machined from a solid piece of 17-4PH stainless steel (361L is optional).  There are no o-rings, organics, or welds exposed to the pressure media.  This allows for a leak proof, all-metal sealed pressure system which withstands more than 10 million pressure cycles without failure.

Various pressure ranges from 50PSI through 10,000PSI are available.  Signal output options include 1 to 5V, 0.5 to 4.5V (ratiometric), and 4-20mA.  Packard, Bendix, mini-Din, and cable connectors are offered.  Several standard pressure ports are available, and custom configurations can be designed.  The MSP5100 feature an accuracy of 1% Total Error Band with an extended operating temperature range of -40C to +125C.

Typical applications include refrigeration systems, compressors, pumps, test stands, hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, agriculture equipment, water management, and process control.

Selco: new family of oem time/temperature controls

In response to the demand for low-cost electronic temperature control, Selco/ECC has introduced a new family of electronic temperature controllers.  For applications where high precision temperature control is required and where time and/or temperature reading must be displayed, electronic controls offer an advanced solution over traditional bulb and capillary temperature thermostats.  Until now, electronic controls have cost more than their electromechanical counterparts.  With Selco/ECC's new family, however, this cost-difference is minimized for many OEM applications.

The new family includes four different electronic control models - the 2696 and 2697 Hot and Cold Temperature Controllers and the high-end 2698 and 2699 Temperature Controllers.  These controllers are designed for a wide variety of refrigeration and heater control applications including commercial and consumer appliances, cooking equipment, grocery store refrigeration storage, chillers, and HVAC.  All electronic controllers in the new family incorporate microprocessor-based technology, assuring users of excellent performance accuracy, repeatability and stability.  Control function performance characteristics include a differential of 2ºF, single or dual channel temperature sensing, high accuracy thermistor temperature sensing of ±2ºF, and a setpoint adjustment of 1ºF resolution, which can be set by either a potentiometer or optional digital user panel.

Other features include a wide operating temperature control range, time control, user selection of temperature in ºF or ºC, small package size for easy OEM incorporation, and conformal coating for moist environments.  Depending on model, controllers come equipped with bi-color LED indicators, one to three output devices (up to 30A).  Optional features on some models include defrost cycle and remote display or remote control panel.  All models are UL listed.

For complete flexibility, power requirements are nominal 115VAC/60Hz with options for Selco/ECC's wide input range SST power input from 75 to 305VAC.  Output choices include single SPST/SPDT relay rating at 15 or 30 Amp, 240VAC or multiple relays on Model 2699.  Users can select form a wide temperature control range for cold controls from -40ºF to 50ºF (-40ºC to 9.5ºC) and hot temperature control ranges from 90ºF to 250ºF (32.2ºC to 121.1ºC).

Minco: flex circuits available with Omnetics connectors

High-reliability flexible circuits from Minco are now available with rugged, high-density connectors from Omnetics Connector Corporation.  Circuit conductors under 0.003" and connectors with 0.025" pitch allow designers to save space and simplify designs.  Engineers can specify a circuit and connector to be delivered as an assembly to reduce parts count and overall cost.

Minco and Omnetics specialize in products for military, medical, avionics and other critical applications.  These connectors meet MIL-PRF-85313 and the flex circuits meet IPC specifications.  Designers can work with one source and be confident that the design, construction and testing of the assembly are optimized for their requirements.  Testing, inspection and delivery times are minimized because of the cooperation between the two companies.

mamco:  New ultra-low pressure switch

A switch design that combines gold crossbar contacts with an all-in-one-welded contact terminal construction that delivers reliability and extended life in harsh low-pressure environments. The MAM005 line of ultra-low pressure, vacuum, and differential switches can be ordered preconfigured for immediate shipment, as a standard product tailored to user needs, or custom-designed for special applications. The switches come configured with different port orientations to fit mounting requirements and come in nine different diaphragm materials. The devices can be selected to assure chemical compatibility with most mediums and reliable operation at temperature extremes.
