Keeping in Touch

Dave Carter & Associates, Inc. has announced Motorola Spirit Professional Two-Way Radios and Motorola TalkAbout, Family Service radios as new product lines. Now it is more important than ever to keep in touch whether on the job or at play. Motorola has an extensive product line that can help you to do just that. Aside from the obvious safety factor of instant communication, there are key benefits for every sector of the RV industry. Manufacturing plants will enjoy an increase in productivity as production line workers have a direct connection to their line leaders; no running from one end of the plant to the other searching for an answer. RV sales lots are usually very large and crowded, which makes it difficult to contact sales people as they tour the lot with customers. Paging over a loud speaker does not connect you directly with the salesperson needed and aggravates the customers with the noise. On the recreational side, RVers already know the importance of being able to keep track of family members when away from the familiar home territory.

Dave Carter & Associates has been serving the RV and manufactured housing industry for over 25 years years. For additional information call 352-732-2992 x 226.

When Breathing Isn't Optional

The new Pro Air supplied-air respirator (SAR) system from Axis products may be the simplest and least expensive way to protect yourself from the life-threatening hazards of paint mists and fumes, chemical and welding fumes and vapors and dust from sanding and other nasty stuff that can steal your breath away. It is also the perfect answer when you are forced to work in confined areas with inadequate ventilation.

The Pro Air uses a smooth, quiet, very powerful turbine to provide a constant flow of about 7 cfm of cool, fresh air to the positive pressure face mask. Breathing is easy, natural and comfortable because you're not trying to pull air through partially clogged filters, and the part of your face covered by the mask is constantly bathed in a cool, refreshing breeze of fresh air.

The NOISH approved Pro Air system is available in a variety of configurations for one or two users, with air supply hoses from 40' to 80' in length and a choice of half-masks, full face masks and protective hoods. They are easily portable, stored, and can be plugged into 110 outlet. Accessories are available for more remote air intakr and through-the-wall air supply installations such as spray booths. All componets are designed for commercial use and are covered by a full one year warranty.

Stacked LEDs Go High and Wide to Minimize
Labor and Boost Quality

Engineers at Wilbrecht Electronics' have designed a multistack LED assembly that allows custom configuration of LEDs stacked 1, 2 and 3 high with custom spacing going up to 6" wide without paying for any special tooling. The multi-stack assembly cuts installation to a fraction of the time. It allows the the operator to install from 6 to 36 LEDs all at once in complex configurations. In one simple operation, all LEDs have the proper viewing angle, correct sequencing and polarity, and consistent color matching. Along with enhanced reliability, the assemblies provide improved resistance to shock and vibration.

The assemblies are very effective in cutting labor and boosting quality in high density areas. For new applications they allow designers to conserve valuable board space and increase durability. The multi-stack assemblies are made from UL 94V-O rated Valox 420 plastic for conventional wave soldering.
