devices that replace individual meters, relays and switches in elec trical distribution systems. Eaton's Visctronic fan drive senses engine coolant tempera tures and the engine's microprocessor determines not only whether the fan drive should be on to cool the engine, but also how fast the fan drive should be running--reducing noise and improving fuel economy. Eaton is also working with commercial power-tool manufactur ers to develop a microprocessor for power tool controls that can be programmed to customize tool performance as demanded by specific markets or customers. Similarly, a new line of Eaton In ductive proximity sensors is readily customized to customer needs by reconfiguring the logic embedded in the sensor's applicationspecific integrated circuit. Reacting to Changing Conditions Through electronics, sensed and analyzed information is also used for ``actuation,'' or for giving a product the ability to alter its state based on changing conditions in its environment. As an example. Eaton's new Series II hydrosta tic pump, which will be in production in 1996, offers optimal ad vantages for mobile agricultural and construction equipment. A microprocessor and multiplexed controls give it the capability of interfacing with other vehicle electronic components. The renowned Eaton Fuller mechanical transmissions have been both partially and fully automated. In both versions, an electronic module selects ideal shift points and shifts automatically, thus pro viding optimum efficiency and productivity. As part of a strategic alliance with Bosch, Eaton offers anti-lock braking and traction con trol systems--which utilize electronic logic--for both mediumduty and heavy-duty trucks. Cutler-Hammer's Advantage motor starters incorporate elec tronic logic for more precise control of trip times and enhanced ca pability to control electric motors in industrial settings. MEETING POWER DISTRIBUTION CHALLENGES Cutler-Hammer is applying electronics to control and communicate with its power distribution components, from Senes Circuit Breakers, the industry's most advanced devices (lower left with other products identified clockwise), to the Dtgttrip Optimizer, which accesses, displays and configures information from the OPTIM trip units. Cutler-Hammer switchboards are free-standing steel enclosures which contain circuit break ers, metering equipment or fusible switches. The IQ Analyzer is a leading-edge power quality meter that can measure up to 50 electrical system parameters; the IQ Energy Sentinel is the industry's only submetering device that mounts directly onto circuit breakers to monitor both power and energy. The Digitrip electronic trip unit works in conjunction with circuit breakers to monitor and manage power consumption. From com ponents to assemblies. Cutler-Hammer offers customers complete solutions to power distribution challenges. ion T
