This company has upgraded its Thermec range of enhanced polymers, with the introduction of a cost-efficient product based on polyether ether ketone (PEEK), blended with a solid polymeric lubricant. The new material has been specially developed to replace polyamide-imides (PAI),…
The Transic100LP oxygen transmitter uses tunable diode laser spectroscopy (TLDS) for repeatable and drift-free measurements, independent of process or sample gas flow, temperature and pressure. The device has no moving parts, and its optical components demonstrate durability, even when faced…
Musculoskeletal disorders are a common occupational disease in the E.U. and North America and are one of the most common causes for long-term absence from work. Wearables — clothing enhanced through technology — offer an approach for reducing these injuries.…
The recently enhanced LMV 803Lr (photo) is a direct-drive, vertical inline centrifugal pump designed to handle high flowrates. Featuring a novel inducer technology and backswept impeller, the pump can achieve ultra-low NPSHr (net positive suction head required) without the risk…
This company recently designed a new skid system (photo) capable of mixing and pumping low to moderately viscous products. The Model VSL-400 system features a conical vessel on a movable skid with a progressive-cavity pump rated for flowrates ranging from…
The Chem-Pro CD1 multi-diaphragm metering pump (photo) offers continuous pumping for gas-forming chemicals, such as peracetic acid or sodium hypochlorite. The CD1’s drive technology is self-priming and will not vapor lock. The CD1 features a patented ultra-durable diaphragm, called DiaFlex,…
Last month, this company released Visio P&ID Process Designer 2020 (VPID 2020), a software platform envisioned to create smart piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs) and process-flow diagrams (PFDs). VPID 2020 is equipped with enhanced functionalities on a Visio-based platform and…
