Prüftechnik Alignment Systems Launched at the Hanover Exhibition last month, the Levalign expert features a horizontal and vertical self-leveling spinning laser with 200-m measurement range in conjunction with a 70-mm detector range sensor to ensure quick, one-man operation for wide-ranging…
Thermo Fisher Scientific The new TruProcess analyzer is this firm’s next-generation near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer for realtime blend analysis, drying and other process analytical technology (PAT) applications. The analyzer includes micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS) technology that transforms traditional NIR spectroscopy into…
Swagelok The RHPS series high-flow pressure-reducing and backpressure regulators are now available globally from this company, which acquired RHPS B.V. in April 2010. These regulators are constructed of 316L stainless steel for line sizes up to 4 in. Key products…
Davis Instruments The Fluke 190 Series II is a digital handheld oscilloscope that is designed for challenging environments. Dustproof, drip-proof and impact-resistant, the 190 Series can measure input, output and feedback signals simultaneously to diagnose industrial electronics problems in variable-speed…
All good things come to an end. And so it is with Microsoft extended support and security updates for Windows 2000,which ended in July 2010. Any manufacturer with industrial applications that are based on Windows 2000 may wisely be considering…
Storing solid materials in hoppers, bins and silos is ubiquitous in the chemical process industries (CPI), as are challenges associated with dispensing them. In many cases, using vessels with steep cones and smooth walls is enough to provide reliable flow.…
Launched at the K-Show last month, Rheonaut is a compact Fourier transform, infrared (FTIR) module for this firm’s rheometer platform. When used with the Haake Mars rheometer platform, the module helps users understand the causes of rheological properties on a…
JM Science The Aquacounter HG-400 low-cost mercury analyzer (photo) requires small sample sizes and minimal reagents, so it generates a small volume of waste in sampling. Its detection limit is 0.5 ppt at sample volumes of 5 mL, and 5…
Swagelok Featuring 3D CAD output, live flow evaluation and integrated flow data, the updated MPC Configurator (photo) makes it easy to develop complete process analyzer and sample systems. The program provides engineers with an interactive tool to build and assemble…
The Type 226A and 228A Baratron Differential Capacitance Manometers (photo) provide accurate and repeatable differential pressure and vacuum readings from 0.027 to 133 kPa at ambient temperature. The direct linear signals are accurate for very small pressure drops and flow…
