Protect Valuable Drive Technology with Pfannenberg Thermal Management and Filter Technology
Reduce downtime and failures on expensive, critical drive technology by protecting drives from environmental conditions
Lancaster, NY - Pfannenberg, Inc., a leading global manufacturer of thermal management technologies, announces that it is possible to protect valuable investments in drive technology through the use of thermal management and filter products.
Implemented across a wide range of applications and uses, drives are very expensive enclosure electronics. Without proper protection against heat and condensation, these electronics can fail, causing significant downtime, maintenance costs, and even replacement costs. Heat and condensation can cause reliability issues and loss of lifespan if high ambient temperatures are consistently reached. Condensation can cause corrosion (Rusting or oxidation) as well as electrical failures or dangerously charged enclosures resulting in shock or electrical arc. These failures, however, are avoidable.
Thermal management and filter technology, like the Filterfans invented by Pfannenberg and more aggressive enclosure cooling and dehumidifying products, dramatically reduce failures in drive enclosures. As a result, downtime and costs are much lower as well. Proper climate control helps to extend drive product service life and ensure smooth operation throughout a drive's lifetime.
Thermal management experts at Pfannenberg can consult to determine the best possible climate control technology to support any particular drive setup in any given environment. Filterfans, industrial control cooling units, thermostats, hygrostats, heaters, air exchangers, and more all serve to protect valuable electronics from environmentally-induced failures.

Featured Product

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
