Bottom-up synthesis of new perovskite material for ammonia production

Perovskites are a class of synthetic materials that have a crystalline structure similar to that of the naturally occurring mineral calcium titanate. They have been the subject of many studies because they exhibit unique properties that can be tuned according…

A new family of mixers adapts for each application

The new Salomix family (photo) is designed to operate in demanding applications in various industries. The combination of maximum propeller efficiency and optimum agitator selection will reduce the overall power consumption of the mixing application significantly. The new Salomix family…

Built-in load monitor ensures correct loading to joints

Maxbolt load-indicating fasteners (photo) can reduce downtime, premature wear and catastrophic joint failures by continuously measuring and displaying the amount of tension in a bolt or stud. Each fastener has an accurate and durable load-monitoring device built in that indicates…

Glass-free pH sensors with improved CIP stability

The new generation of ISFET sensors (photo) is made of unbreakable polyether ether ketone (PEEK), which offers maximum product safety, accuracy and much improved clean-in-place (CIP) stability. ISFET pH sensors can be used in any application where glass PH sensors…

Avoiding SIL Misconceptions

Engineers must refine their foundational understanding of process safety in order to avoid common misconceptions about safety instrumented systems, including safety integrity level (SIL) definitions Learnings from major industrial process accidents occurring over the past half century have driven awareness…

Ultra-compact valves for bioprocessing applications

The new BioviZion valve (photo) is an ultra-compact model available in diameters ranging from 0.25 to 0.5 in. for sampling and low-flow bioprocessing applications. BioviZion valves include a mechanical thermal-compensation system wherein a sealing force is constantly applied to prevent…

Feeding the USB port out of the control cabinet

With the new CU8210-M001 cabinet dome (photo), the USB port of an Industrial PC can be fed out of the control cabinet and still be well protected, establishing reliable and powerful wireless connections to the control computer without having to…

LED illumination simplifies sight-glass setup

The capabilities of MetaClamp and MetaGlas sight-glass windows have been expanded with the addition of light-emitting diode (LED) lighting technology. Designed for sanitary or hygienic applications in the pharmaceutical, food, beverage, brewery and biotechnology industries, the new MetaClamp LED Ring…
