Allied Electronics & Automation: Orion Fans High-Efficiency EC Fans Reduce Power Consumption by 50%

Designed to reduce power consumption by up to 50% in a variety of AC fan applications, electronically commutated (EC) fans from Orion Fans offer a significantly lower‑power, energy‑efficient cooling solution. The AC‑input fans utilize a brushless DC motor and incorporate voltage transformation within the motor for significantly lower power consumption. For custom requirements, dual‑speed EC fans can be programmed at the factory to deliver even more power savings.

Rockwell Automation: Short-Circuit Current Ratings

What is short-circuit current rating (SCCR)? The maximum available short-circuit current an electrical component can sustain without the occurrence of excessive damage when protected with an overcurrent protective device. Determining the SCCR of a complete industrial control panel or control switchgear can be challenging, especially if proper considerations are not made during the initial stages of the component selection process.
