Surge protectors usually are triggered and reset when there is a potentially damaging electrical surge in signal cables. Only when the surge goes above 20kA or more do these devices fail, which is what can be seen in the photos below.
When these types of surges occur, without protection, the entire panel would likely be destroyed. Instead, a small economical device takes the hit, breaks the circuit and the entire panel is protected.
The photo shows a melted and exploded-looking MTL SD32MDX. The energy this device was able to take and divert saved the connected sensitive electrical equipment from destruction.
For around $100 a piece you can potentially save thousands in repairs and replacements with a simple installation of a surge protection unit.
The RTT15S Temperature Transmitter is a microprocessor based temperature transmitter that uses HART communication protocol. In addition to thermocouples and 2, 3, or 4 wire RTDs, the unit can take in ohm and millivolt signals. The RTT15S is in an explosion=proof housing with optional display and optical buttons for local configuration. This unit is also available as a basic module that can be surface or DIN rail mounted. Basic configurations on the RTT15S is a snap! Take a look at our newest video HERE highlighting Schneider Electric’s Foxboro RTT15S Temperature Transmitter.
Schneider Electric’s Foxboro 84 Series Vortex Meter is one of the most reliable and accurate vortex meters. These meters are able to detect the weakest vortices at the lowest flow rates without loss in accuracy or resolution. In order for this application to be most reliable you need to know your low flow cut-off point. Calculating this point is easy and done simply by sizing your meter. You can size your meter by clicking here!
Neal System’s On-Site Service Tech, Bill Conway, fills us in on how simple it is to calibrate using a Schneider Electric Smart PH Probe. Schneider Electric’s Foxboro Smart Technology has an edge above the rest. The Smart PH Probe gives you the ability to store your calibration right in the sensor itself! This means you can transport the sensor back and forth from the field, calibrate it, and reattach. There is no longer a need to deal with adverse weather or environmental conditions while trying to calibrate. For more videos like this one you can view Neal Systems YouTube Channel HERE!
