Bal Seal, ETIC to Demonstrate Electrical Contact Technology in Booth #L65
EP Shanghai 2011
SHANGHAI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Bal Seal Engineering, Inc. announced today that it will partner with local distributor ETIC to bring its Canted Coil Spring™ electrical contact to an audience of engineers and industry professionals at the 8th International Exhibition on Electrical Power Equipment and Technology. The event, also known as “EP Shanghai,” is being held September 21-23 at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center in Shanghai, P.R. China.
Bal Seal, a leading provider of connecting, conducting and EMI shielding solutions for energy equipment OEMs, said it will share booth #L65 at the EP event with ETIC, an exclusive distributor of the Bal Seal Canted Coil Spring product line for power transmission and distribution applications in China. using product samples and a series of photorealistic animation sequences displayed in HD, the two companies will show attendees how the simple, precision-engineered Canted Coil spring can help improve the reliability and performance of power transmission and distribution equipment by offering more power density, simplified installation and elimination of contact maintenance.
The Canted Coil Spring, already a proven solution for high, mid and low current applications, is available in a wide variety of coil heights and materials. It is designed to maintain a nearly constant force over a broad compression range, automatically compensating for misalignments and surface irregularities while withstanding temperature changes without significant deviation from its initial force. each coil in the spring works independently, maintaining contact with the mating surface and ensuring maximum conductivity.
Typical applications for the Canted Coil Spring include busbar connections, gas-insulated switchgear contacts, circuit breakers and industrial fuse boxes. The versatile component also functions as an EMI shielding/grounding element.
