Transformers have long been considered important components within electrical systems. When a need arises to step voltage in a circuit either up or down for purposes of power transmission or distribution, there is no doubt that these devices are essential.
As electrification becomes more prevalent across many different classes and types of vehicles, the technology that drives its backbone of systems and components continues to advance. This is especially true with batteries, where gains in efficiency, size, charge time, and capacity seem to be ever moving.

How time flies. Already it is December and another year draws to an end. Here at Knick, 2019 has been year full of changes. Read on if you want to know what has been happening behind the scenes, as once again, we are looking back over the past 12 months.
Applications for DC electrical transducers are encountered often within the rail industry for measurement purposes. They are prevalent on both rolling stock and substation equipment dedicated to traction power. Information afforded by voltage and current measurements is often used for control, safety, and data collection.
Critical electrical measurement applications found within the rail transit industry require equipment that can keep up with the demands seen. Safety, precision, speed, and ease of use, are all important factors to consider when making component selection. Depending on the application, different factors might weigh heavier than others.
There are many systems where measurement of large DC currents are needed for performance and safety. Two examples are static excitation and rail traction power. These current measurements are often made by one of two main principles: shunt resistor with mV transducer or Hall effect feed-through sensor.
It is estimated that every year on average about eight million metric tons of plastic end up in our world oceans. Most of it is being swept into the sea directly from land sources via estuaries.

Sensors as the direct interface to the process must be exactly matched to the chemistry of the measured medium and to the prevailing pressure and temperature conditions.
It is pretty universally agreed upon that electro-technical products, used in critical or dangerous applications, pose no danger, themselves. There are, however, different assessments and approaches to reach an adequate level of safety. Users and manufacturers of such products are typically on the “safe” side, if they comply with recognized…

It has long been common practice when taking pH/ORP, conductivity, and oxygen measurements that a fixed analyzer be mounted near the sensor. The analyzer serves several purposes. It is the display, the calibration tool, and the source of the output signals for data collection.
With its ProLine range of high-precision signal conditioners and transmitters, Knick focuses on delivering solutions for demanding applications, such as are found in railway and nuclear power industries.
Traditional millivolt AC transducers are very susceptible to errors due to their poor insulation and are only designed for pure sinewave measurement. The VariTrans P41000 TRMS, however, has been developed to also accurately process distorted input signals.
Pharmaceutical manufacturer, EVER Pharma Jena uses the extremely robust conductivity sensors SE 605 (H) and SE 680 with Memosens technology from Knick.
The requirements on operational and safety-related circuits are continuously growing. This also affects the technical requirements on components.
