2-in-1 High-Voltage Test Hood
LX-HVE900EC
-
The test cells are made of stable, highly insulating plastic and are closed by a swiveling, transparent cover. The built-in safety switch is used to lock the hood and release the high-voltage sources. This ensures that no high voltage is active when the door is open. There is a generously dimensioned wiring space in the floor of the test cage. An interchangeable adapter plate in the test cell - optionally with an interchangeable interface or an interchangeable adapter cassette - allows quick adaptation to different types of test items. Prepared openings enable connectors and other common interfaces or cable bushings to be easily attached. The hood is opened and closed almost effortlessly thanks to precisely coordinated gas springs.

Hall Effect Proximity Switches/Sensors
-
ChenYang Technologies GmbH & Co. KG
A Hall Effect proximity switch is a non-contact electronic switch, which consist of a permanent magnet or ferromagnetic part as trigger intermediary and a Hall Effect sensor IC. The Hall sensor IC detects the change of the magnet field when the permanent magnet comes in the close proximity to it and generates an electric signal. This signal is amplified and rectified to control the output signal of the switch.
