How to Avoid Wire/Cable Failures in Your Application

admin2 — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 20:14:25 +0000

In today’s world of sophisticated electronics, cable failure is not an option. There is no acceptable level of downtime and no one can afford to replace expensive machinery years before its predicted lifespan. Many of the problems that surround cable failure, especially in extreme and harsh operating environments, could have been avoided by selecting the correct cable from the outset. “But specifying cable is easy,” you say. Well, yes and no. Sure, it’s easy to match temperature ranges and then count on a PVC jacket for protection. But there’s a lot more to it than that. Understanding how the cable will work when exposed to harsh conditions as well as environmental factors are details that engineers need to consider before “fully” specifying an appropriate “hazard-matched” cable. DEE offers a FREE Report that concisely steps through each consideration that should be reviewed when specifying your application’s cable.

Key Secrets to Implementing a Reusable Container/Packaging Program That Adds $0 Cost AND Works Within Your Existing Replenishment System

admin2 — Fri, 23 Mar 2012 19:59:14 +0000

Many Manufacturers are seeking to implement reusable packaging and container systems with suppliers to cut down or eliminate packaging waste. The problem is that there are a number of obstacles that either bog down that effort, or severely limit the ability to economically implement it. DEE has a lot of experience in successfully implementing reusable container programs, and has created a White Paper Report on “Key Secrets to Implementing Reusable Packaging/Container Programs”. This report is fairly short and easy to read, but identifies some key secrets to implementing a reusable program that could add $0.00 cost to you as a manufacturer, and does not have to change your current replenishment scheme. If you would like a copy of this Free Report, just send an email to myfeedback@dee-inc.com with “Reusable Container/Packaging Program Report” in the subject line, and include all your contact information.

How to Select a Temperature Sensor

admin2 — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 21:40:49 +0000

There are many variables to consider when selecting the right temperature sensor for your application, but there is a wide variety of temperature sensors out there from which to choose a product too. There is no single answer that is right for everyone. Which solution is best suited for your application? DEE offers a Free whitepaper report that identifies the 3 Most Important Criteria for selecting the best temperature sensor for your application. As a sneak preview of the report, the first of the 3 criteria is “Data Requirements”. But within each of these criteria, there are a number of areas to be aware of.

This is an excellent report which covers the data requirements criteria, including temperature and accuracy criteria, as well as economic considerations and application factors that should be considered when selecting the right Temperature Sensor. The report goes into detail regarding what aspects you should be considering within the critical sub-criteria for each of these 3 key areas, and how to properly select your temperature sensor. Using these three key criteria will dramatically improve your efficiency and effectiveness in selecting the right temperature sensor for your application. If you would like a Free Copy of this Report, just send an email to MyFeedback@dee-inc.com with “Temp Sensor Report” in the subject line, and be sure to include your contact information.

“They ask what we need and what they can assist with and follow through accordingly”

admin2 — Sat, 17 Mar 2012 20:14:20 +0000

I would say Dee Electronics’ most valuable trait is the fact that they are customer focused. They do not try to “sell” us parts or services, they ask what we need and what they can assist with and follow through accordingly. They work hard to provide the best customer service possible and don’t let us down. I can say as an engineer, working with DEE I appreciate the fast response on new project ideas and their ability to provide several different options. They offer cost savings ideas, reducing lead time and supplier issues and that is what separates them from the rest.”
