HMS presents communication solutions for Battery Energy Storage Systems  HMS Networks is now presenting several communication solutions for the rapidly expanding battery market. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) require communication capabilities to connect to batteries and peripheral components, communicate with the power grid, monitor systems remotely and much more.  Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) may be one of the keys to solve the energy crisis and make the world more sustainable. Since green energy sources such as wind and solar are not always available, large battery parks can make it possible to store the energy to use when there is...

Emerson’s New Three-Way Miniature Solenoid Valve Expands Flexibility in Medical Product Design  Compact, configurable three-way valve offers new options for high-flow, precision gas control in oxygen therapy and analytical devices  Emerson has expanded its ASCO™ Series 090 line of miniature solenoid valves, adding a new three-way Series 090 valve configuration to enable lighter, more space-efficient solutions for gas control in oxygen therapy, compression therapy and gas analyzer devices. Originally developed as a two-way valve for air and inert gases in portable medical devices, the Series 090 valve features a compact architecture, small (10.8 millimeter) footprint and 50 million-cycle life for...

X-rays capture ageing process in EV batteries Canadian researchers capture x-ray images of electric vehicle batteries as they degrade over time Victoria Martinez Apr 5, 2022 Toby Bond adjusts a battery sample on the BMIT beamline. CLS researcher Toby Bond uses x-rays to help engineer powerful electric vehicle batteries with longer lifetimes. His research, published in The Journal of the Electrochemical Society, shows how the charge/discharge cycles of batteries cause physical damage eventually leading to reduced energy storage. This new work points to a link between cracks that form in the battery material and depletion of vital liquids that carry...
