Retrofitting with Invertek’s Optidrive P2 drive allows for flexible and efficient operation of Permanent Magnet (PM) and Brushless DC (BLDC) motors. These motor types provide higher efficiency and lower operating costs than induction motors, especially in high-torque, low-speed applications.

An ESI pressure transducer is a device that converts energy from one form to another, and sends signals in volts (V) or millivolts (mV). These signals are directed to any device that would interpret them in a way you can read and understand them for reporting, recording, and monitoring purposes.Pressure transducers are suitable for use if you have short electrical connections, such as in laboratories or inside an electronics enclosure. What makes ESI pressure transducers unique is ESI’s proprietary Silicon-on-Sapphire (SOS) technology. SOS involves growing silicon onto the surface of sapphire

An ESI pressure transmitter is a measuring device that is very similar to a pressure transducer. They both convert one form of energy to another, and then provide an output signal electronically or visually. These signals are communicated to a connected device, which translates them into useful data for your monitoring and record-keeping purposes. The difference is that ESI pressure transmitters send signals in currents, or milliamps (mA). It is important to note that transmitters and transducers do not change or control pressure. How do you decide which one to use? For long distance

If you are in agriculture or horticulture industry, your land is probably your most important asset.Here in Australia, planning around the seasons and weather changes can be challenging when you need to ensure that your soil is conducive enough to sustain your crops and/or plants year-round. Soil management then becomes crucial so your crops not only survive, but also reach their maximum yield potential. This is where Lutron PMS-714 Soil Moisture Meter can help you. This device is designed to help you easily and accurately measure the moisture content of your soil, so you know if it is ready

POSITAL is an industry leader in industrial sensors that are built for motion control and safety measurement systems. From the most economical and compact devices to robust sensors, POSITAL specialises in two types of encoders: absolute and incremental. Absolute Encoders Absolute encoders provide unique digital codes for each shaft position, allowing them to report the exact position immediately upon power-up, even after a power loss. They do not require any calibration or homing sequences, maintaining position data even when the shaft is moved while powered off. Known for their accuracy and

Draw wire sensors, also called cable extension transducers are devices that accurately measure displacement and position. POSTIAL’s LINARIX linear sensors are available in a variety of configurations including robust extruded metal housings, plastic housings and machine metal housings.

Testing plays an integral role in a multitude of industries -- manufacturing, education, defense and environmental monitoring, etc. -- to pass strict quality control regulations.One of the most usual challenges that quality engineers and researchers face is not having the right tool, or perhaps, a versatile equipment to perform testing of different variables. If you are looking for a method to simplify and speed up the measurements of different test components, you have come to the right place. An Interface for Versatile Measurement ESI recognises the need for comprehensive parameter

We know why you are here. You have recently acquired a Lutron Panel Meter, and can’t quite set it up?Allow us to remove the guessing game in your configuration. These steps apply specifically to DR99ACA, but with some adjustments, can also apply to panel meters DR99ACV, DR99DCA, DR99DCV. You can refer to the table below, and to the attached data sheets from each product at the bottom of this article, for more information. Configuration Steps Power off the device - Ensure that the meter is turned off and disconnected from any power source to prevent damage or injury. Locate the jumper settings

Inclinometers, also called tilt sensors or IMUs (Inertial Measurement Units) measure angles of slope, elevation, or depression relative to gravity. POSITAL offers a diverse range of inclinometers including dynamic, static, compact and heavy duty inclinometers.

When working with variable frequency drives (VFDs) such as those produced by Invertek, the distance between the VFD and the motor is an important consideration that can significantly impact system performance and reliability.
