Energy Cost Reduction through Load Balancing and Load Shedding
15 May, 2011Power factor is an important aspect that drives up energy costs so improving this, controlling the demand charge and reducing peak consumption during ON peak times will result in substantial savings. In addition, the PLM function helps to improve quality of the main power supply and ultimately reduces CO2 emissions.

Futek LLB400 miniature load button load cell
21 June, 2010 byFutek Advanced Sensor Technology has released the LLB400 miniature load button load cell with improved overall accuracy. The load cell has a high accuracy with a deflection of 38 µm nominal and an operating temperature of -50 to 93°C.
Futek LPM200 panel-mount load cell
21 June, 2010 byThe Futek LPM200 panel-mount load cell offers miniature size, a robust flexure and low capacity of 10 g to 2.2 kg. A common challenge for low-capacity sensors is the damage the sensor can incur during installation. With the LPM200’s design, this challenge has been greatly minimised. The product features an overload protection of 1000% of rated output for the full range. By threading the flexure, the LPM200 can easily be installed for usage. The LPM200 uses a tough 28 AWG 4-conductor braided shield clear PVC cable.
