Panel thermostats increase system reliability and performance
Finder has announced the introduction of a pair of panel thermostats designed to maintain constant temperature levels in control panels and enclosures. Suiting the needs of both simple and sophisticated heating and ventilation systems, the 7T Series thermostats help to improve component reliability and preserve instrumentation accuracy through enhanced temperature setting and control.
Timers increase flexibility while reducing part number count
Finder has announced the introduction of a range of eight modular, 22.5mm wide rail-mounted timers designed to provide a complete range of timing functions, while keeping part number holdings to the absolute minimum. The multi-voltage 83 Series of multi-function and mono-function timers handles 14 different timing functions, with time scales between 0.05 seconds to 10 days and offers either single or double pole variants.
Relay interface modules from Finder delivers unique output circuit protection feature
New range of relay interface modules from Finder delivers unique output circuit protection feature Finder has introduced a new family of ultra-slim relay interface modules that provides a low-cost, space-saving solution for a host of industrial applications. The 39 Series MasterINTERFACE range incorporates an innovative, replaceable fuse for output circuit protection, plus busbars and terminals that substantially simplify input and output wirin...
Finder launches new 2011/12 catalogues for expanding product range
Finder has announced the availability of two new catalogues for 2011/12 detailing the company’s complete product range. The catalogues, one aimed at Industrial applications and the other targeting Commercial and Residential applications, contain essential reference information on timers, relays, interface modules, sockets and accessories for designers and buyers of electronic and electrical systems.
Relays handle rigours of PV applications
Finder has extended its relay range with versions designed to suit photovoltaic (PV) inverters, domestic appliances and other equipment needing reinforced insulation, high ambient temperature handling and full disconnection contacts. The latest product introductions comprise the 45.31 16A rated mini PCB relay and 3 special variants of the 66 Series 30A rated power relays.
Finder surge protection devices safeguard photovoltaics
Finder has introduced surge protection devices (SPD) designed specifically for photovoltaic (PV) panel installations. Additions to its popular 7P Series of SPDs, three new Type 2 surge arresters will protect PV systems from the effects of lightning strike and electrical switching transients. The products are already supporting the company's own PV panels at its primary manufacturing plant.
Modular contactor range provides reliable switching for quiet environments
Finder has announced a complete family of 25A contactors, purpose designed for switching lighting, pump and motor loads in noise sensitive installations. Incorporating an AC/DC silent coil with varistor protection, the 22 Series modular 2- and 4-pole contactors help meet the need for quieter operation, particularly in home, hotel and hospital environments.
Finder digital meters help reduce local energy consumption
Finder has announced a series of digital energy meters for accurately monitoring and measuring electricity consumption in plant and machinery, HVAC, lighting and other environmental control equipment. The DIN rail mounted 7E Series provides users with local, high visibility 7-digit LCD display of total and partial kWh consumed, instantaneous power, voltage and current.
Finder makes new appointment in Midlands
Finder has announced the appointment of Bill Killick as Area Sales Manager for the Midlands region. Killick will promote the company's market-leading range of relays and timers and rapidly expanding portfolio of lighting control and energy saving products.
Finder: High accuracy thermostats reduce energy usage
Finder has introduced a series of microprocessor-based room thermostats providing a temperature setting resolution accuracy of 0.1ºC and advanced setting options to help reduce energy usage in residential and commercial environments.
Finder hits bullseye at Darts Championship
Relay and timer manufacturer Finder became the proud sponsor of no less than two English world darts champions at the weekend's Lakeside World Professional Darts Championship. Finder was a shirt sponsor of both the Women's Champion Golden Girl Trina Gulliver and the Men's Champion Martin Wolfie Adams.
Revamped time switches raise control scheme accuracy
Finder has updated and extended its 12 Series of 16A time switches, commonly used in a range of lighting, heating and ventilation applications. Comprising mechanical and digital daily and weekly time switches, the 12 Series has been completely redesigned to increase the number of switching points and minimum interval settings and to improve the man-machine interface.
Finder - Relay interface modules handle bigger loads
Finder has added higher current rated relay interface modules to its broad range of electromechanical products. The single pole 38.01 and 38.11 are designed to switch electrical loads up to 16A, 250VAC and provide an interface between output limited PLC, BMS and other electronic controllers, and high current loads such as heaters, motors and solenoids.
Light dependent relays enhance lighting control and save energy
Finder has announced a complete redesign of its 11 Series of modular light dependent relays. For automatic control of lighting according to ambient light levels detected by an external photoelectric sensor, the 11 Series now comprises four compact rail mounted relays designed to optimise control schemes and boost energy saving.
