Elesa extends ESD range into castors
and wheels for sensitive areas

New ESD wheels and castors from Elesa prevent the
build-up of electrostatic charge and thereby offer
protection to sensitive electronics and in hazardous
environments. Elsewhere they increase operator comfort
by allowing static to pass directly to ground rather than as a static shock through the individual.
Typically, they find application in electronic and pharmaceutical manufacturing, also hospitals,
power stations and offshore oil and gas facilities. They are easily fitted to trollies and mobile
workstations or instruments, also component stillages, carts and storage racks. Read more here

Flexible fill level sensor with an analogue signal
With the reed-based, analogue 298A level indicator, Elobau is bringing robust and
flexible level measurement for industrial machine and off highway vehicle
applications to market. Design engineers and developers benefit from a compact,
flexibly configurable fuel level sensor with an analogue output signal. Fuel level
sensors like the 298A enable the measurement of a tank’s content. Continuous level
measurement can increase operational readiness and prevent unplanned machine
downtimes due to an empty tank. The main difference to the proven sister product,
the 298 fuel level sensor, lies in the output signal. While the 298 generates a
resistance output signal, the 298A uses an analogue output signal, 4 to 20 mA or a
voltage signal within the range 0.5 to 4.5 V DC. Read more here

Robust and flexible approach for

LV switchgear enclosure

Enclosures play a vital role in protecting switchgear
from damage, as well as ensuring the safety of
people nearby. Combining these aspects with a
flexible, modular system that can be customised
appropriately creates an enclosure layout that’s a
best fit for switchgear protection. Whether for
outdoor use or harsh indoor industrial settings, an IP rating sufficiently high to prevent ingress,
combined with IK protection against impacts, are prerequisite requirements. Read more here
