Motion Detector

Especially designed to conform with OSHA regulations, detector is easily in­
stalled in standard cam switch boxes of punch presses or stamping equip­
ment. Divided sprocket clamps around switch box shaft. Solid-state prox­
imity sensor pickup is not speed sensitive, and mechanical alignment be-
tween sensor and sprocket is not critical, A sensitivity indicator verifies
that sensor and sprocket are properly aligned, Unit is available in 10 to 1
speed ranges from 1 to 5,000 rpm with relay or static output. • Instru-
mentation & Control Systems Inc., Addison, III. Mark 656 on Free Service Card

Precision Motion Packages

Variable reluctance step motor and lead screw provide precise
incremental motion. Motors are characterized by high step­
ping rates, resolution, and torque-to-inertia ratios. Addition of
antibacklash nut (as shown) converts rotary steps to linear
steps. Many standard combinations are available such as a
24-step (15 deg) motor with a 1.2-inch lead high-helix screw
which advances 0.05 inch per step, and a 200 step (1.8 deg)
motor with a 0.2-inch lead ball-bearing screw which advances
Tracer 0.001 inch per step. • Warner Electric Brake & Clutch Co.,

Recording Sound Levels

Meter measures and records industrial noise. SPL-110 meets the per­
formance and accuracy requirements of ANSI SI.4-1971 Type II Sound
Level Meter specifications and includes the required A, B, and C
weighted scales and fast/slow meter response. Sound levels are
recorded over a range extending from 20 dB to 130 dB in nine steps
of 40 dB each. Unit is available in 115 vac and battery operated
versions. Microphone is detachable and can be located up to 300
feet from the meter. Chart speed of 8 inches per hour allows un­
attended operation for 3 days. • Tracor Instruments, Austin, Tex.

Conversing With Your Computer
Intelligent terminal delivers clear, flicker-free video display of APL
and ASCII character sets. A 4k microprocessor provides on-line
and off-line operating flexibility. Other advantages claimed for the
A4000 include a true APL overstrike capability, a foreground-back­
ground switch for selective display of an overstruck APL symbol, j
and full character editing within the APL definition or execution |
mode. A single APL OUT key permits the user to generate the
APL special function with one keystroke. • Ontel Corp., Plain­
