Optical encoder has higher accuracy
A more accurate optical encoder with integrated pushbutton enhances accuracy by providing more data points to measure changes in shaft position.
Rugged, reliable snap-in mount push-buttons
EAO has announced the rugged Grayhill series of snap-in push-button switches in a choice of 6 colours with the option of custom legends.
The San Ace 60WF has been added to the range, which includes 40, 60, 80, 92 and 120mm2 frame sizes.
The design benefits from an enhanced frame and impellor material.
The motor windings and PCB are completely sealed with an oil-proof resin, which creates a resistant surface equivalent to IP55.
Extra clearance between the impellor blades and the inner frame further inhibits adhesion of oil mist and dust.
The result is a fan that dramatically reduces maintenance costs and equipment down-time, said EAO.
The 60mm2 frame has an airflow performance of 18.4ft3/min and 95Pa static pressure and a wide operating temperate range of -10 deg C to +70 deg C.
The fans are available for 24V DC operation with an L10 life expectancy of 67,000h at 40 deg C ambient.
There are many applications for these oil-proof fans including the following.
* Servo amplifiers.
* Inverters.
* CNC Lathes.
* Machining centres.
* Harsh environments.
Also available from EAO is the San Ace W model, a range of IP55 'splash-proof' DC Fans in 60, 80, 92, 120 and 172mm frame sizes, they benefit from an improved frame design, which is up to 30% lighter than similar products.
These products offer reliability and stable performance even in severe environmental conditions, including protection against direct jets of water from multiple directions.
All Sanyo Denki fans are manufactured to meet the latest European RoHS Directive and are UL CSA and TUV approved. Request a free brochure from EAO ...
