Currently four sizes of the load break switches have been UL Listed: Size 1 (250 amp), Size 2 (400 amp), Size 3 (600 amp) and Size 4 (800 amp). They are available from Woehner USA's stock in Memphis Tennessee or the Telergon manufacturing plant in Saragossa, Spain.
"Having a UL listed component is very important to us as it increases the range of customer applications for which we can provide switching solutions." said Kevin Saunders, Managing Director of Wöhner USA. "In addition, assembly manufacturers who are pursuing a UL Listing of their equipment to the UL1741 standard will require this UL mark, and we are happy that we can provide them with it. In addition, with a listing, assembly manufacturers can simply apply (or substitute) the UL Listed products as long as the product ratings suit the ratings of the assembly. It's a drop-in replacement."
Aimed at North American photovoltaic installations that require NRTL (Nationally Recognized Test Laboratory) certification, Telergon's S5000 DC load break switches are typically used in string combiner boxes, re-combiner boxes and inverters that are constructed to the UL1741 standard and can be used to safely disconnect live direct current at up to 1000Vdc.

Vecoplan - Planning and implementation of complete processing plants in refuse derived fuel production
In order to reduce the costs involved in the energy-intensive production of cement, many manufacturers are turning to refuse-derived fuels (RDF), considerably reducing the proportion of expensive primary fuels they would normally use. Solid fuels are being increasingly used - these might be used tyres, waste wood or mixtures of plastics, paper, composite materials and textiles. Vecoplan provides operators of cement plants with proven and robust components for conveying the material and separating iron and impurities, efficient receiving stations, storage systems and, of course, efficient shredders for an output in various qualities.
