Fibershear - Model CSP - Fiber Optic Control Cabinet Connectivity Technology
CSP FiberShear Direct Connect Technology protects cabling infrastructure by preventing stress applied to the cable in a typical hard wired connection. CSP allows the cable to be control sheared at the base of the cabinet or structure, preventing stress on both the cable in the ground and the cable connecting to the electrical device. This innovative technology guarantees that all cabling infrastructure remains intact in the event of an accident and enables cabinet or device restoration to take place within minutes of the equipment being reset. This patent pending, made in the USA, innovative device was designed to eliminate patch cords, redundant maintenance and additional failure points, ultimately saving cost.
CEL - Model LCM-200 Series - Brainy Bolt
The integrity of a structure may critically depend on proper installation and continued proper tensioning of the fasteners used to join the components of the structure. Improper tensioning of a fastener during installation, subsequent extreme loading, vibration, corrosion or severe environments can cause a fastener to yield, potentially leading to structural failure. Maintaining appropriate tension in fasteners may be a vitally important factor in maintaining the integrity of a structure. Brainy Bolts, developed and patented by Cleveland Electric Laboratories (CEL), are part of the FiberStrike® family of innovative sensing solutions.
