ENERJEE

Termovar is an automatic thermic valve that is operated by a self-contained thermostatic element that allows a boiler's temperature to rise quickly upon start-up by minimizing circulation through the boiler until operating temperature is obtained. This minimizes condensation of combustion products on the fire side, preventing premature corrosion of the boiler.

The QT160 sensor IC offers six channels of touch sensing, using the proprietary QProx charge-transfer technology. The self-contained digital IC with a RISC core is capable of detecting near-proximity or touch. It can be used to create up to six touch buttons through glass, plastic, stone, ceramic, or wood. It can also turn common objects into touch sensors. Designed specifically for interfaces, the QT160 allows OEMs to create sleek, innovative touch controls that serve as sealed, IP67 rated keypads. The device requires only one common, inexpensive capacitor per channel.

The Series 40 valve line has added an option for a forged brass body. The valves employ an all-plastic bobbin core as the sleeve. The Series 40 valve group is available as a two-way normally closed, and three-way normally closed, and may be used with air, inert gas, and liquid media from vacuum to 300 psi.
