Elektron pays attention to the connector and switch market in China. The three brands combine to provide a complete solution

In 2009, Elektron Technology established a Chinese subsidiary company. In 2010, Elektron Asia Pacific headquarters was established. In early 2011, Elektron launched four new products at the first conference of the New Year and introduced its custom design and consulting services to China, demonstrating the firm determination of the company to enter China. Mr. Kevin Broderick, General Manager of Elektron Technology Asia and Greater China, said: “Over the past few years, the experience of our peers has taught us that in order to achieve greater success, we must not leave the Chinese market. Elektron Technology focuses on new energy in the Chinese market. Outdoor lighting and electric vehicles are the three major application areas. The company will also integrate its three major brands Arcolectric, Bulgin and Sifam to provide complete solutions for Chinese users through customized services.”

Bulgin's new PCB-mounted fuse holders have been introduced. Elektron Technology has introduced two new vertical PCB-mounted fuse holders FX0442 and FX0443. These new designs belong to the company's Bulgin fuse holder series.

The FX0442 and FX0443 fuse holders are capable of accommodating 5mm x 20mm fuses. The rated operating value is 10A, 250Vac and the maximum power loss is 2.5W. They are designed and manufactured for a variety of bulk applications where PCB mounting provides a quick and economical method of integrating the fuse units into the circuit.

Both the FX0442 and FX0443 come with a straight protective cap (PC), which can be removed manually or with a screwdriver/tool. These protective covers are all bayonet-type assemblies for quick and reliable insertion and removal of fuses. Both of the fuse holders have a contact resistance of less than 10 mΩ, and the insulation resistance is higher than 10 MΩ at 500 Vdc.

It is verified that both fuse holders have the ability of protection against electric shock specified by the PC2 specification. The implication is that the live part will not come into contact with a standard test finger conforming to the IEC60529 specification. Through the use of UL94V-0 rated 85 ÌŠC fire-retardant nylon and polyester flame retardant materials, they passed the glow wire flame test specified in the EN60695-2-12 standard. Both fuse holders also received VDE and UL international certification covering the United States and Canada respectively.

Expanding Bulgin's IP66-compliant MPI Series Luminous Anti-Break Switch The Elektron Technology's Bulgin brand has launched a new line of MPI Luminous Anti-Break Switches. All MPI switch bodies and buttons are made of high-grade stainless steel. A sturdy transparent plastic mirror in the stainless steel actuator makes the switch more robust and more beautiful. All switches are sealed according to the IP66 standard. In addition, Bulgin's new series also has a rear panel seal. This can make them more suitable for outdoor use, or in situations where condensation liquids and leaks behind the control panel can cause problems. The back panel seals come in many forms and include single-color and two-color dot-like or ring-shaped LED lighting. Independent switches and LED terminals allow users the flexibility to choose either fixed or controllable lighting. The contact form is normally open single-pole single-throw.

This type of switch is available in both welded and screwed versions, which simplifies field installations, while the rear of the switch is also equipped with sealed injection molding and jumper wires. With a complete power supply resistor, the LEDs can be driven directly from 6V, 12V, and 24V supplies.

After testing, MPI series can withstand 750,000 mechanical operations and 35,000 electrical operations, rated at 50mA, 24Vdc. The series has also recently undergone design enhancements in its architecture, introducing surface mount LEDs and TVS tubes.

All switches in the MPI series feature transient action triggering, making them ideal for access control and access control system applications such as elevators, emergency buttons, parking management systems, emergency telephones, vending machines, and food processing. Wait.

Launched Acrolectric brand 22mm industrial switch Elektron Technology launched Arclectric brand APB, ALB and ALS series new 22mm industrial switches. Types include button type, short bar type, long bar type and key type.

Arcolectric's latest switch series offers the high internal quality and durability consumers expect. The APB, ALB, and ALS series of Arcolectric, which is designed primarily for control systems in the electrical industry, are designed in accordance with the industry standard 22mm mounting. All of the switches in these series have a modular construction that allows them to be easily combined while complying with the EN418 specification for emergency stop. All switches can be used for single-phase and three-phase power supply (rated current 3A, rated voltage 220/240V, rated current 1.5A, rated voltage 380/415V), as well as 24V DC, 120V AC or 240 AC indicator light to choose from .

Launched the new Sifam analog panel meter Elektron Technology announced the Sifam new generation of analog panel meter Fast Response Presentor series. The Fast Response Presentor brings a lower cost option to the full-size PPM meter currently used in the broadcast market. The low price of this product does not reduce its quality and performance.

The Fast Response Presentor family is available in three different sizes (FR19, FR29, and FR39), and there are four mounting options for each specification: Simple panel back mount (W type), back panel with bezel (WF type) , front panel mounting with low cover (M type) and front panel mounting with full bezel (Type B).

Lighting options include top light, light box and LED lighting in three forms. Top lighting uses a 6mm, 12V or 24V string light unit with a diameter of 6mm, suitable for all sizes of W and WF installations. Lightbox lighting with 6V, 12V, 24V string or T13⁄4 threaded connector lamp units for all sizes FR29 and FR39; also available with LED lights for 12V or 24V T13⁄4 threaded connectors, internal LED lighting for all The specifications and models.

The front panel of Sifam's Fast Response Presentor is made of transparent acrylic, and the back panel is molded in a high-density, translucent, translucent model. Masks and frames are molded from black ABS plastic. The white pointer, flat arc scale, and black dial of this type of instrument are designed to read numerical values.

Bringing Custom Design and Consulting Services to China In addition, Elektron Technology also launched its new customized technical consultation and highly innovative custom design/manufacturing services for Chinese users. Through its manufacturing base in Shenzhen, Elektron Technology's team is currently able to help users access to the company's global engineering expertise, application knowledge, and intellectual property (IP) for connectivity, environmental seal isolation, switching, lighting, and pointing devices.
