New high power relay for printed circuit boards from Finder
POWERING THE GREEN REVOLUTION
Thanks to its specific design and technical specifications, the new Finder Series 68 power relay can switch exceptionally high loads, making it a perfect fit for energy production and distribution and, in particular, for the global demand for green sustainable mobility.
The relay can be used in charging stations of up to 55 kW, inverters, battery chargers, emergency power generators and in many other renewable energy applications.
The relay can also be installed in emergency power supplies (UPS), in pump control panels and in automation panels for heavy lifts.
The relay is suitable for mounting and connection via a printed circuit board. Thanks to its two 100 A specified make contacts, the Type 68.22 can realise the complete switching of a three-phase + neutral load up to 100 A using only 2 relays. This provides significant savings compared to previous technologies.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The Series 68 power relay has been designed through careful analysis of the specific application areas and market requirements, combined with Finder know-how in relay design and construction.
Completely MADE IN ITALY, it offers low coil consumption, a holding power of only 0.7 W, a compact size and a modern design; result of collaboration with Milan-based design studio Fossati | Minelli.
With a contact distance of 3.6 mm between open contacts, it complies with VDE 0126-1-, EN 62109-1 and EN 62109-2 standards. It is also heat and fire resistant according to EN 60335-1 (GWIT 775 °C and GWFI 850 °C).
Specifications of Type 68.22-4300:
- 2 make contacts 100 A
- Available in 12 and 24 VDC coil voltage
- Rated/maximum switching voltage 400/690 VAC
- Nominal load AC1 40000 VA
- Air and creepage distance 8 mm

DigiFlow - Making Life Easier for CustomersRead moreTechnical services provider Breemes supplies customers with PLCs, drives and other materials. Customers like industrial automation company Digi-Flow. Turnover, both parties feel, is not the ultimate indicator of a good relationship. Coming up with solutions together and providing knowledge are equally important. Ultimately, Breemes has to make the customer’s life easier, Digi-Flow CEO Eric Decant believes. Antwerp-based Digi-Flow assists industrial companies in their transformation to smart industrial environments using industrial automation and digitalisation. The company is a spin-off from ESAS Automation in 2020. Solindus, now ESAS, had grown into a company with 2,000 employees after its founding in 2003 by Eric and Robert Decant. With Digi-Flow, they wanted to go back to small-scale entrepreneurship. Eric Decant is now the CEO of the company, which has 30-plus employees. ‘I’m still ambitious, but I don’t want to complete this kind of strenuous trajectory on such a large scale anymore.’ Meanwhile, he is grooming his son to take over the reins. This makes Digi-Flow a true family business, as reflected in its core values of co-creation, long-term vision, lifelong growth and personal.

ATR Engineering - Short delivery times for components and decisionsRead moreBeing able to shift gears quickly is crucial to the success of industrial automation projects. This refers not only to the delivery of components but also to decision-making. Short lines of communication are important here. That was the case in the project to control a washing line for plastic PET flakes, in which ATR Engineering and itsme teamed up closely. ‘The added value of our collaboration is being able to anticipate customer requests extremely quickly.’ Bringing ten years of experience in industrial automation to the table, Adrie van Triest started his own company in 2019. With a broad approach, ATR Engineering in Berkel-Enschot focuses on hardware and software engineering. ‘Our area of expertise is offering total solutions for industrial automation centred around the design of PLC controls. We will sit down with a customer to discuss pending automation issues and we will determine the needs and wishes for a project together in advance. We also offer flexible support for projects or commissioning.’ ATR Engineering is a small company currently employing four engineers from different disciplines. There is also a permanent ‘flexible shell’ of engineers and technicians available to help during peak periods.

Top Cold Control - Short lines for energy management and project collaborationRead moreSpecialist in industrial refrigeration Top Cold Control carries out complete projects, and energy management cannot be missing from that these days. This starts with a lot of measuring. For a cold store in Amsterdam, itsme, in consultation with Top Cold Control and the customer, designed a solution to integrate energy measurement in the control system. Top Cold Control from Nieuwkuijk, specialised in industrial refrigeration technology, realises large projects for customers in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and, through them, elsewhere in the world. These include refrigeration and freezer systems for slaughterhouses, processing companies, cold stores and transport companies. Top Cold Control can handle all common refrigerants, but specialises in the use of the natural refrigerants ammonia (NH3) and carbon dioxide (CO2). For fast freezing, Top Cold Control supplies advanced, energy-efficient freezing tunnels. "The company stands out for its short lines of communication," says operations manager Arjan Maas. "We are always accessible and customers immediately get the right person on the line with us."
