Snubber Capacitors from WIMA
Development of the WIMA Snubber MKP and WIMA Snubber FKP capacitor series for high power conversion is based on decades of experience with Polypropylene pulse capacitors.
WIMA Snubber capacitors are available both as double-sided metallized pulse version - WIMA Snubber MKP - and for extremely high pulse ratings in self-healing film/foil technology - WIMA Snubber FKP. Their electrical performance as well as the manifold number of available connecting options makes the WIMA Snubber technology unique:
- Plates soldered directly to the schoopage for safe contacts at high rms currents
- Low inductance construction achieved by end-surface contacts
- High pulse reliability due to double-sided metallization and/or film/foil construction
- High voltage/overvoltage strength by internal series connection with self-healing metallized floating electrode
- Available in various contact configurations
- Flame retardant plastic case in accordance with UL 94 V-0
- Production sites ISO 9001:2000 certified
WIMA Snubber capacitors are manufactured under conditions of large volume production, but are also available in small quantities as individually configurable high-rel. components. More Information from WIMA»

WIMA GTO MKP capacitors are especially designed to attenuate voltage spikes on GTO (Gate-Turn-Off) Thyristors and IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor). They are manufactured in dry-type technology with a dielectric of metallized polypropylene film and encapsulated in a cylindrical plastic case sealed with self-extinguishing polyurethane resin. Their construction creates outstanding features, e.g.:
- Very low self-inductance
- High pulse reliability
- High rms current carrying capability
- Excellent self-healing properties
- High shock and vibration resistance
- Outstanding mechanical stability
- Almost unlimited life expectancy
Fields of applications are designs where high current and voltage carrying capabilities are required, e.g. converter equipment in power generation or in traction technology for train drives, hoists, crane drives etc.
WIMA GTO MKP capacitors are available with capacitances from 1.0 µF through 100 µF and with nominal voltages from 400 VDC through 1500 VDC. For mounting purposes M6 and M8 threaded terminations are possible. Customer-specific requirements can be realized on demand. More Information from WIMA»

Super Capacitors From WIMA
The Double Layer Capacitors developed by WIMA are storage capacitors with highest capacitance values in the Farad range. They are among others suited to serve as batteries, can deliver considerably higher currents for a short time, however, and are maintenance free.
The construction of a Double Layer Capacitor can be described as a plate capacitor where the most important topic is to obtain electrodes with an extremely large surface. For this purpose activated carbon is ideally suited, as it allows to obtain capacitance values of up to 100F/g of the active mass of the electrode.
The electrolyte, the conductive liquid between the electrodes, is a conducting salt dissolved in an aqueous or organic solvent which permits to apply voltages of 2 V (in special cases 3 V).
The actual double layer consists from ions which attach to the electrodes - negative ions to the positive electrode and positive ions to the negative electrode - as soon as a voltage is applied to the cell and thus create a dielectric of a few Angstrom only. According to the formula for the capacitor from the dielectric constant of the double layer (approx. 10) and the extremely thin dielectric you get an very high capacitance value.

Self-Locking Bolt Systems from Nord-Lock
The NORD-LOCK bolt securing system uses geometry to safely lock bolted joints in the most critical applications.
This unique wedge-locking system offers the following advantages:
- Maximum safety
- Resists loosening caused by vibration and dynamic loads
- Ease of assembly and disassembly
- Locking function is not affected by lubrication
- Positive locking at low and high preload levels
- Controllable preload
- Same temperature characteristics as standard bolt/nut
- Reusable
 Tension makes the bolt self-locking
The key is the difference in angles. Since the cam angle " α " is larger than the thread pitch " β ", the pair of washers expand more than the corresponding pitch of the thread. NORD-LOCK washers positively lock the fastener in a joint which is subjected to extreme vibration or dynamic loads.

Proximity Sensors from Hermetic Switch, Inc.
Proximity Sensors are used in multiple industries and applications. From implantable medical devices, to valve control and aerospace applications, Hermetic Switch has years of experience using our reed switch technology to make some of the industry’s most reliable Proximity Sensors.
Standard Catalog Proximity Sensors (click to see product information):
Custom Proximity Sensors are available! Need a special housing, wire, connector or footprint? Our engineering team is standing by to help find your best switching or sensing solution at a reasonable cost.
Proximity Sensors feature Reed Switches assembled in housings to protect the switch and provide easy mounting. By selecting a Proximity Sensor, the customer is able to bypass switch preparation, wire cutting, stripping, soldering and potting. Proximity Sensors report the relative position of moving objects that must be continuously monitored. Changing Actuator positions cause sensor contacts to open or close, allowing signal currents to flow. Proximity Sensors respond to the Actuator’s magnetism. For more information, see our Glossary of Terms or Application Notes.
Applications: Hermetic’s Proximity Sensors and Reed Switches are used in numerous applications throughout multiple industries. A brief list would include: implantable medical devices like pacemakers and Vagus nerve stimulators, commercial and military jet engines, hearing aids, space stations/space shuttle functions, animal tracking devices, valve position monitoring, wireless devices, burglar alarms, commercial lawn mowers and countless others.

Latching Relays by Gigavac
GIGAVAC offers more latching relays than any other supplier.
- Gigavac latching relays require coil power to be applied only for a few milliseconds to change the relay state. Once latched into position, these HV relays do not require coil power to be continuously applied, which makes them ideal for applications where low coil power consumption is important, or when the relay must remain in the last position energized, even during power outages. If you have any questions about the use or selection of these relays, or any other high voltage relays, please contact us at Group South Sales.

Hot Metal Detectors
The HMD (Hot Metal Detector) is a photoelectric sensor of the radiation photodetection type of the heat material that detects presence, and detects the position according to the receiving light of the infrared rays (heat ray) radiated from the heat material (scorching object). The transmitter is unnecessary. It is a sensor that can be used under a severe use condition that heat, steam, and dust, etc. disperse like the ironworks and the heavy industry site, etc.. It is easy to handle this sensor by a small size, unnecessary cooling and using a fiber optic cable as receiver.

Ultrasonic Sensors
Ultrasonic Sensors are non-contacting sensors that use High Frequency sound waves as the detection medium. The time Differential from time sent to time received after being bounced back from the detection object determines the distance from or presence of the object. Ultrasonic sensors are uninfluenced by differences in color and internal circuitry provides correction from variations in surface texture or material hardness. This type of sensor is suitable for many applications such as the non-contact detection of transparent materials (glass, plastic, films), surface detection of high-speed rolls (paper or steel production) and bin levels (liquids, grains, etc) to name a few.
