New EMC textile fabric gasket with triangular profile
Correctly designed EMC shielding ensures interference-free functioning in many kinds of electronic systems. Particularly in modular systems with plug-in boards or modules, however, the shielding effect of a metal enclosure without additional EMC sealing cannot be guaranteed. Schroff GmbH, in collaboration with a partner, has developed a textile fabric gasket with a triangular profile that has now been granted a patent by the European Patent office. The gasket is designed specifically for narrow gaps.

MicroTCA now aimed at rapid industrial applications
Its rapid handling of data and modular design are making the MicroTCA standard more and more interesting in industrial applications. This is even more so because a successor has to be found for current real-time systems based on the VME bus. Rugged systems need to take into consideration the rough conditions experienced in industry (compared to those in telecommunications). With its new MicroTCA Cube, Rittal is already providing the answers in terms of hardware.

Varistar Server: For high loads - both mechanical and thermal
Data technology applications frequently require the use of heavy servers that also generate high heat dissipation losses. Consequently the physical robustness of the cabinet system and its accessory parts is an important characteristic, as is also the efficient dissipation of heat to ensure smooth operation.

The new long-life, compact panel potentiometer P30L
Vishay Intertechnology announced a new long-life, compact panel potentiometer with a high 2-W power rating, low temperature coefficient, and high operating torque. While standard panel potentiometers reach 100,000 cycles, the P30L offers a long life of 1 million cycles. For designers, this reduces the need for replacement parts, increasing reliability and lowering maintenance costs.

The new designed terminal BC1100 for use on railway vehicles
Gersys, specializing in the proprietary development and production of professional MMI (Man-Machine-Interface) solutions for traffic engineering, offers the new designed BC1 series. The Terminal BC1100 has been developed for the use on railway vehicles.
