AMLD-IZ Drivers Ensure LED Performance Aimtec has expanded its AMLD-IZ series of step-down DC-DC LED drivers with five new models generating constant output currents reaching 1.2A. The new models have wide input ranges of 5-36V DC that step down to wide output ranges of 2-32V DC. They generate constant output currents of 800, 900, 1,000, 1,100 and 1,200mA, with an accuracy of up to +/- 2 per cent, ensuring the constant colour and brightness required by demanding LED applications. The AMLD-IZ series produces up to 38.4W of power in a compact DIP24 package (31.80 x 20.30 x 10.20mm). It features remote on/off control function as well as PWM and analogue voltage dimming control (0 - 100 per cent). Aimtec's LED drivers have efficiencies of 96 per cent. They are as reliable as the LEDs they drive, allowing them to be used at an operating temperature of -40C to +85C at full load. All of Aimtec's LED drivers are compatible with a range of LED applications. They provide turn-key...

Diffusion Pump Offers Long-Term Performance BOC Edwards has released the HT20B diffusion pump, for light and heavy-duty industrial applications. The robust HT20B diffusion pump provides consistent, long-term performance and users will benefit from the highest throughput of any comparably sized pump. The new pump gives a high pumping speed of up to 8000 litres a second and is ideal for processes involving large quantities of gases, such as furnaces and coaters. The HT20B diffusion pump has a machined, cast aluminium interior for exceptional pumping stability and a stainless steel body to prevent corrosion and ensure process cleanliness. It is simple to operate and requires minimum maintenance. The heaters and oil can be changed easily. The design of the interior and boiler assembly enables the pump's performance and ultimate vacuum to be maintained between oil changes. It features a large sight glass to allow operators to easily check the oil level without disturbing the inte...
