Non-representative sampling in solids processes has costly consequences. A better understanding of the mathematical basis for sampling and of acceptable quality levels can help to alleviate potential sampling issues and more closely approximate reality Effective sampling in solids-handling processes is…
With the industrial internet of things (IIoT), it is essential that companies have an intelligent production-management system in order to obtain production information in realtime and store all the history in a database. CapTemp is a SCADA (supervisory control and…
The new SP230 series of isolated signal splitters/duplicators (photo) are designed for easier installation and setup. Four models, covering a broad range of sensor signals, provide dual 4–20-mA outputs proportional to a single current, voltage or temperature input. A USB…
Operations challenged with managing inventory in covered storage bunkers or flat warehouses have a new option that combines leading-edge software and the 3DLevelScanner acoustic sensor (photo) to measure the level of materials piled under structures. Multiple sensors measure and map…
The MBE Series MagMixer (photo) has been specifically designed for reliable operation and regulatory compliance in life science applications. The unit has no shaft penetrating the tank and so requires no mechanical seals, which significantly reduces the risk of leakage…
The new E1500 hand-held combustion emissions analyzer (photo) is a rugged unit with the ability to measure CO and O2 from high-efficiency and condensing boilers, burners, engines, turbines, kilns, furnaces, incinerators and other industrial combustion processes. Featuring a new, large…
The Sirius 3RW5 range (photo) is a new generation of soft starters for simple to demanding drive requirements. This comprehensive range of devices for the soft starting of three-phase asynchronous motors from 5.5 to 1,200 kW enables efficient and future-proof…
Major efforts are underway to develop new process technology for making chemicals using sunlight and the products of combustion No one can deny that the sun provides more than enough energy to supply the world’s energy and materials needs. After…
The UltraPure model (photo) from the Unique Mixproof valve product line is designed to meet the standards of biotechnology and pharmaceutical applications. Valves are packaged to ensure full traceability and are available in high-alloy materials, such as Hastelloy C22 and…
Several methods are available for sizing two-phase pressure-relief valves (PRVs). Here, the API 520 homogeneous direct integration method is compared to a potentially simpler alternative that does not require integration Two-phase pressure-relief valves (PRVs) have been studied by many researchers.…
