Noark’s MCCB’s Achieve Freeze Test to –40°C

Noark Electric manufactures top-quality low-voltage electrical components including molded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) for many applications. In heavy commercial applications and industrial facilities, MCCBs are relied upon to protect against electrical damage caused by short circuits or overload conditions. Since they have a high interrupting capacity, they can handle larger loads than these processes require. Because of their importance in buildings and infrastructure, it is critical that they undergo and pass stringent testing to ensure they function properly when needed the most.

Comprehensive Guide to ABB Circuit Breakers

A circuit breaker is an electrical safety device designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current. It functions as a switch that automatically interrupts the flow of electricity when it detects a fault, such as an overload or a short circuit, thereby preventing damage to the circuit, appliances, or electrical system. Circuit breakers are typically found in electrical distribution panels or breaker boxes, where they monitor the flow of electricity to various circuits in a building or structure. When the current exceeds a certain threshold for a specified period, the circuit breaker trips, cutting off the flow of electricity to that circuit.

Lubricants: Unlocking Peak Performance in Your Gearmotor

In the world of mechanical systems, gearmotors are the workhorses, driving operations across various industries. Yet, their efficiency and longevity hinge on a crucial component often overlooked: lubricants. Understanding the role of lubricants, how to select them, and the importance of maintenance can significantly impact your gearmotor’s performance and lifespan. Lubricants in gearmotors serve several vital functions. They reduce friction between moving parts, minimize wear, protect against corrosion, and help dissipate heat.
