EMERGENCY STOP SAFETY SWITCHES
Pepperl+Fuchs introduces a new family of Emergency Stop (estop) Switches with integrated Safety at Work (SaW) functionality. These intelligent estop switches are powered by the AS-Interface network and offer fast, error-free installation in field or panel-mount applications. Field and panel-mount models are available in high intensity, wide angle illuminated versions, as well as non-illuminated versions to suit any e-stop application requirement. Illuminated models are lit by a high intensity LED to eliminate the need for auxiliary power, while reducing the number of required leads to two. The field-mountable versions eliminate all wiring to save time and eliminate the possibility of incorrectly wiring the e-stop switch, and feature an M12 connector that works in conjunction with the company's flat-to-round cable adapters to reduce installation time to less than 60 seconds.

TRANSFORMER OIL PUMPS
Cardinal transformer oil pumps are specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of transformer oil applications. To meet the extreme temperature requirements, Cardinal pumps are rated for continuous duty operating temperature ranges from 40°C to 100°C. The pumps also have other special features for transformer oil applications such as the capability to permit thermo-siphon flow when the pump is not operating, allowing natural convection even when the pump is completely shut-off. The pumps offer rugged split case design with heavy-duty class 30 cast iron used for the pump casting, motor enclosures, impellers and volutes. Large thrust face sleeve bearings also extend life, minimize wear, and reduce maintenance. Unifin International
