Quiet, low-vibration pumps for sensitive applications

The Ecodry plus (photo) is a vacuum pump designed specifically for applications in the transition area between small laboratory equipment and large-scale industrial machines, in the size class ranging from 40–60 m3/h. Ecodry pumps’ quiet operation — the average noise…

A plastic piping system for very low temperatures

The ecoFIT polyethylene (PE) piping system (photo) provides chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and high impact strength, even at low temperatures. The ecoFIT product line consists of a complete range of system components, including valves and connections. Other performance characteristics include…

Stainless-steel flanges now available on these AODD pumps

The Husky line of corrosion-resistant stainless-steel air-operated double diaphragm (AODD) pumps (photo) has been expanded to include stainless-steel ANSI/DIN welded flanges. The flanges are available in vertical and forward-facing orientations, and feature a rotatable design that simplifies connection to process…

This clamp-on flowmeter enables flexibility in installation

The TransPort PT900 (photo) is a portable, ultrasonic flowmeter for liquid flow measurement. The TransPort PT900 features an all-new transmitter and clamping fixture, as well as an app-driven user interface on an Android tablet. The clamp-on design allows for the…

This new NOx analyzer has an internally cooled sensor

The accuracy of an NO gas sensor, the primary component of NOx, can be compromised when exposed to ambient temperatures above 86°F (30°C) and significantly more so above 104°F (40°C). To help prevent this temperature effect on the NO sensor,…

This filter press is driven by compressed air

The new SP series (photo) is a so-called “air-over-oil” filter press driven exclusively by compressed air. Air-over-oil filter presses are used where power connection is not available or possible in a process line. By deliberately dispensing with electrical equipment, the…
