Hi-Tech Controls Announcement Regarding COVID-19

As a supplier to critical manufacturing sectors in the area of medical equipment (ventilators, hospital beds, x-ray machines, scales, etc.) as well as utility (communication) and safety equipment (fire and rescue), Hi-Tech Controls, Inc. has been deemed essential and is exempt from any federal and state mandated stay-at-home orders.

In that spirit, Hi-Tech Controls will continue to service you while taking the necessary precautions to keep our team and customer’s safety in mind. We will continue to receive and process customer orders in order to best meet your needs during this critical time.

We are running at full capacity and have committed to increase our inventory levels to over $2 million to meet our customer’s expectation for products.

We have asked all outside salespeople to put travelling on hold and, for the time being, to conduct any meetings via phone or video rather than in person.

We continue to adhere to local and state regulations as much as possible, while also following CDC and WHO guidelines within our own space (keeping a 6’ distance from each other, refraining from conducting meetings, using good sanitizing habits, etc.).  We continue to be committed to ensuring the health and safety of our employees and customers as COVID-19 affects the global community.

We are sure that there will be additional challenges. Should something change we will add any updates to this announcement.  With that, we ask for your help to start looking ahead and placing orders sooner to meet your future expectations.  

We are in this together!

These cables are necessary to ensure a friction less flow of data and material. We are able to offer most of these cables: for many applications on the following pages we present cables for corresponding applications.

Flat Cable

Every day we go through the motions: snooze the alarm – twice, perform all the hygienic tasks we learned as children and grab a coffee to go as we make our way to work. Once we reach the office, we grab another cup of coffee and begin answering emails. The day goes on and you successfully complete your assignments, so you begin your commute back home to spend time with family or to go to happy hour with a few friends.

Whatever your day looks like, there is a system you follow, and if your system is faulty – say the office coffee pot is broken – then your day doesn’t run as smoothly.

Much like conveyor systems, you need proper functionality to accomplish daily tasks. This is why it’s so important to install the proper equipment. When it comes to conveyor systems and trailing cables for crane installations, you need oil resistant cables with small bending radii and high flexibility.

Expert and proper installation is important to ensure accurate operation, so please contact us to request the corresponding instructions.

Hi-Tech offers the following four Neoprene and PVC flat cables:

NEO-Flat-C
NEO-Flat
PVC-Flat-CY
PVC-Flat

Silicone Cables

Posted on by

We’ve all been subject to Mother Nature’s mood swings when it comes to weather.  One day it’s 76° and sunny, then, not even twenty-four hours later, it’s hailing. It’s a good thing we live in a time where technology can protect us from such extremes. Take our Silicone Cables, for example. They have great environmental resistance properties and are heat resistant for permanent temperatures +356°F and short term temperatures +428°F. They can also be used at temperatures as low as -76°F.

All silicone cables are halogen-free, but their structures vary to offer extra protection where you need it:
FZ-LSi / FZ-LS / Neon Light: ignition cable
SiHF: multi conductor, flexible
SiHF/GL-P: multi conductor, steel braiding
SiHF-C-Si: multi conductor, copper shielded, EMC preferred
SiHF UL/CSA: multi conductor, 302°F, 600 V
Si HF-C-Si UL/CSA: multi conductor, copper shielded, EMC preferred, 302°F, 600 V
SiF / SiFF: single conductor, hook-up wire
SiF /GL, SiD, SiD/GL: single conductor, hook-up wire
THERMFLEX 180 EWKF: multi conductor, H05SS-F
THERMFLEX 180 EWKF-C: multi conductor, copper shielded, EMC preferred, 356°F
UL-Style 3135: single conductor, 392°F, 600 V
