‘Cadmium’
A Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release
HBB connectors suit high-power applications from
Aerco, which we summarised at the time by saying "Now available from Aerco are Hypertac's HBB connectors that are rated up to 750A for use in high-power applications. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Military audio connectors at the double from
PEI-Genesis: "VEAM PT connectors are widely used in fighting vehicles and ground-based military communications equipment such as the MoD's Clansman and Bowman radio systems.".
In August 2008, we covered the news from Skyray XRF
- take a look at X-ray fluorescence analyser is made for RoHS
which says: "Skyray XRF has redesigned the compact EDX-3000 desktop X-ray fluorescence analyser to quickly determine the concentration of lead, cadmium and other hazardous substances in products.".
Take a look also at the news release from Inelco Hunter, Power relay shows a sensitive side,
as well as Alkaline batteries boost performance from Panasonic Industrial Europe,
and Batteries power space truck from Saft Space and Defence Batteries.
