A motor protection relay safeguards electric motors by detecting thermal stress, phase imbalance, stall, and abnormal ...

The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has published a new standard: IEEE Std. 3004.8-2016, “Recommended Practice for Motor Protection in Industrial and Commercial Power Systems.

To successfully integrate the drive into the system, the controller must provide full functionality for motor control. The more functions the drive itself can implement, the fewer add-ons and ...

The usual way of preventing a small motor from drawing too much current is to install overcurrent protection in the form of a circuit breaker or some other kind of limiter. But installations that ...

Medium-voltage motors are critical to a facility’s power system. Not only are they expensive, but their failure can have crippling, long-lasting impacts on a plant’s operation. As such, properly ...

BLD-20DIN for simple and reliable control of BLDC motors has been redesigned - appearance and functionality have been retained, performance has been improved. TALLINN ...

New controller for DC motors - BMD-5DIN, which simultaneously meets all three wishes of the developers: cost-effective, fully functional and a reliable device ...

It’s impossible to balance line-to-line voltages perfectly in three-phase circuits, so they typically differ by a few volts or more. However, if voltage unbalance exceeds 1%, it can markedly decrease ...

STMicroelectronics is offering the only surge protection devices certified to the automotive industry's preferred specifications. Surge protection prevents unwanted voltage pulses in the vehicle ...

Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE: FCS) introduces three new Smart Power Modules (SPM®) designed for full-switching power factor correction (PFC) in motor drive applications in the 3-6kW power range. As ...

Manufacturers of circuit protection devices continue to enhance the performance of their safety components to protect electronic devices and equipment, ranging from smartphones and wearables to data ...
