Ensuring commercial kitchen safety with sensors and switches

Ensuring proper airflow Air filtration systems, including fume hoods, are essential for maintaining good air quality in commercial kitchens. Pressure switches play a key role in fume hoods by triggering alerts or shutdowns to prevent air contamination when pressure drops. These switches detect...

Innovative Engines and Engineering (IEE)

  Founded in 2019 by owner and operator, Stefan Etter, IEE initially focused on its innovative Drive By Wire System, which replaces traditional mechanical linkages, such as cables or rods, between the accelerator pedal and the throttle body. Using sensors, actuators, and electronic...

Engineering solutions for tough environments: the benefits of waterproof switches

Key benefits of waterproof switches Durability: Built to withstand challenging environments, waterproof switches provide long-term operation without degradation from water or debris. Safety: Waterproofing prevents electrical short circuits, enhancing safety in wet or humid...

Cable Extension Transducers: A versatile tool for position measurement

What is a cable extension transducer? A cable extension transducer converts the linear movement of an object into an electrical signal that can be interpreted and analysed. The device consists of a flexible steel cable wound around a spool inside the transducer housing. As the object moves...

The role of temperature probes in non-flight auxiliary power units

In non-flight APUs, temperature probes are critical components used to monitor and control the unit's operation. They are typically used in ground-based applications, such as in commercial or industrial settings, and are similar to those found on aircraft but operate under different conditions....
