Transparent housing cover in slim design

18 June 2003 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

The UM slimline housing from Phoenix Contact provides many possibilities for constructing electronic switching: a transparent flat-design cover is now optionally available for UM slimline housing for 100 and 108 mm component widths. As with the housing, the cover is cut to length with millimeter precision according to the customer's needs. The flexible length adjustment to the PCB enables users to develop individual, practical electronic modules.

If the PCBs are used effectively, this provides compact electronic modules protected from touching and dirt with a total installation height of around 60 mm. The module is supplemented by corresponding side elements that are available with or without feet and optionally with an integrated potential grounding contact. Options for connecting external wires such as PCB terminals or pluggable Combicon connection technology, and a diverse range of services, round off the product range.

Understanding solder dross: causes and control strategies
Truth Electronic Manufacturing Editor's Choice Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services
Dross formation is an inevitable consequence of wave soldering. It occurs when molten solder comes into contact with oxygen, forming metal oxides that float on the surface of the solder bath. Over time, this oxidation byproduct accumulates and must be removed to maintain solder quality and process consistency.
