The Kromschröder BCU 4 Series control platform (photo) for multi-burner applications is designed for directly ignited or pilot/main burners of unlimited capacity in intermittent or continuous operation, and for modulated or step-controlled gas burners. The series consists of three new…
This company’s family of high-performance seals (photo) are designed specifically for applications in the pharmaceutical manufacturing, analytical instrumentation and hygienic fluid handling sectors. The seals are manufactured with chemical-resistant materials to meet or exceed quality requirements, including United States Pharmacopeia…
The new Vibration Bottom system (photo) enables safe discharge of powdery, crystalline, fatty and granular bulk materials from hoppers. The lateral, imbalance vibrator sets the vibration bottom in horizontal, circular vibration. Vibrations are transmitted to the materials column via the…
Baoli-3 dry-cut pelletizers are designed for processing both hard and soft materials. As with previous Baoli generations, the automated cutting chamber-locking system enables fast handling while supporting operator safety. The company also offers the Pearlo underwater pelletizing system for the…
TCT Series centrifugal pumps (photo) feature an open and rear-mounted impeller, internal anti-abrasive coating and low rotational speed (rpm), making them suitable for applications where pumps may be exposed to high levels of abrasion, such as ceramics manufacturing or distilleries.…
Paying closer attention to the air-filtration systems of pneumatic conveying operations can avoid losses in efficiency in compressed-air usage during filter cleaning The inefficient use of compressed air in solids-handling processes, such as pneumatic conveying, can waste a significant amount…
There are many industrial technologies for removing H 2 S from process gas, and each brings with it different benefits with regard to costs, efficiency and equipment layout Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a toxic and corrosive gas that occurs naturally,…
