Challenges and opportunities in the renewable energy market The increasing demand for energy, the availability and cost of oil and issues of pollution make alternative sources of renewable energy essential. Consumption of renewable energy has grown worldwide due to government incentives and requirements for renewable energy and the desire to switch to cleaner fuel in […]
Reed Sensor : for what applications ? Magnetic proximity sensors are a proven and popular choice for many types of applications. They are often used to monitor the open or closed status of windows, doors, gates, … and more in security applications. Basically, magnetic proximity sensors are a first class solution for any application where […]
What is a solid state relay used for? In this article we are going to discuss about the Solid State Relay, which is mostly known as SSR, and especially their applications. Solid-state relays are the semiconductor equivalents of the electromechanical relays, and therefore can be used to control electrical loads. The solid-state relay is a […]
Why Solid State solutions for three-phase AC motor control ? Motor control has always been something difficult to tackle with as a motor is first of all an inductive type of load with high starting currents (which doesn’t help reduce size and costs of protection devices like fuses) and over voltages generated at turn-off. This […]
