A compact flowmeter that has no moving parts
Mag-View is a compact, high-quality, yet economical, device for measuring liquid flowrates in applications where flow sensors with moving parts cannot be applied. Its interference-free operation, combined with a long lifecycle and independence from the inlet and outlet pipework makes…
Accurate RH & temperature measurement in harsh environments
To best meet specific application needs, the DT722 relative humidity (RH) and temperature transmitter is available in digital (DT722) and analog (DT722-X18) models. The digital version gives high performance measurement with “excellent” RH accuracy and delivers reliable, consistent and accurate…
Three new digital displays for your measured values
The Afriso DA 10, 12 and 14 digital display units are suitable for displaying measured values and evaluating and controlling standard signals (4–20 mA, 0–1 and 0–10 V) from electronic transducers, especially in level applications. The connected transducer is supplied…
Increasing the sensitivity of trace-element analysis
By using electrothermal vaporization (ETV) for sample introduction, this company has greatly improved the sensitivity of its Arcos ICP-OES spectrometer for material-analysis applications. Trials verify that detection limits can be improved by an order of magnitude. At much lower cost,…
Compact remote I/Os save space and the cost per channel
Four-channel analog I/O modules can be placed in a 16-mm-wide enclosure due to a new energy-saving electrical design. This results in a space savings of 50% compared to the predecessor model, says the company. The new design reduces the cost…
Sizing Calculations for Pressure-Relief Valves
Pressure-relief valves are widely and effectively used in situations where the pressure in a process vessel rises to above the vessel’s design-pressure rating. Proper relief-valve sizing is critical to plant and process safety to permit fluids sufficient flow area to…
This Coriolis flowmeter is the smallest of its kind
The RotaMass LR (photo) is claimed to be the world’s smallest dual bent-tube Coriolis mass flowmeter. The unit is designed to be self-draining and to measure both liquids and gases, with a mass flow measurement span from 0 to 40…
Focus on Pressure Measurement & Control
Omega Engineering A compact pressure transmitter for easy reading Rangeable industrial pressure transmitters in the PX5100 Series (photo) are compact and feature a backlit display for easy reading that rotates for its location. Wetted parts are made of stainless steel,…
Analyze pulp online with this instrument
The new Metso Pulp Analyzer provides the first online measurement of micro-scale details of fiber properties, thereby giving pulp and papermakers a tool to help predict how fiber properties will affect final sheet-strength properties. The pulp analyzer features a new…
Use Simplified Lifecycle-Cost Computations to Justify Upgrades
Virtually every process-plant manager pursues the commendable goals of safely extending equipment life and maximizing both the availability and reliability of plant assets. Achieving these objectives usually requires upfront effort and money — both of which can be scarce resources.…
