Save Energy and time with these New Rotary Blowers

Unveiled at Powtech 2008, the DB 166 C and DB 236 C (photo) are this firm’s latest generation of rotary blowers. System operators not only benefit from the significant energy and operational savings that these blowers offer, but are also…

TÜV-approved safety valve communicates via Foundation Fieldbus

The new Neles ValvGuard VG9000F for Foundation Fieldbus (photo) is said to be the first TÜV-approved SIL3 Foundation Fieldbus (FF) safety valve controller to appear on the market. It combines the benefits of FF communication with the technology of the…

Split shaft seals for mixers and other rotating equipment

These seals (photo) are available fully split to retrofit mixers, blenders and most other rotating bulk process equipment without the removal of bearings or drives. The seals work like a thrust bearing; there are no internal springs to loosen, corrode…

A flexible, inert hose for high purity applications

With a silicone and stainless-steel reinforced, smooth-bore PFA core, Coreflex Series U-COR hose (photo) offers increased flexibility, yet resists kinking. This flexibility allows for easy installation and short offset orientations, and additional use in applications that promote drainability and flow.…

Achieve the benefits of dry processing in this reactor

The proven KneaderReactor technology combines specialized mechanical and thermal features, and allows polymers, chemicals, fibers and food products to be manufactured without the addition of solvents. Designed for high torques, the systems are capable of processing highly viscous, pasty and…

Hose pump boasts lower total cost of ownership

Series LPP pumps incorporate a unique operating principle that, among other benefits, offers preferred energy efficiency. Thanks to the rolling hose contact, no excess friction and thus, no excess heat, is generated. In fact, less risk of overheating means that…

For clean applications, use this metal-free

The all-plastic DrumQuik PUR chemical-dispensing system (photo) provides extraction of high-purity chemicals from drums, jerry cans and intermediate bulk containers. The system is comprised of a PVDF coupler and an HDPE drum insert assembly. The drum insert assembly contains a…

Improve vessel cleaning with this new range of spray balls

BETE This new range of rotary spray balls (RSB; photo) is ideal for replacing static spray balls to ensure more efficient cleaning. Available in two sizes (RSB45 and RSB65), they ensure a maximum cleaning radius (depending on pressure and flowrate)…

These regulators suppress internal cylinder forces for safety

ESAB Welding and Cutting Products Purox and Oxweld oxygen cylinder regulators (photo) have a patented design that suppresses internal forces from a cylinder explosion within the cylinder walls. The design minimizes risk of injury in the event of an explosion.…

A coupler for increased hose maneuverability

Bete The patented Variacor coupling (photo) provides free orientation for hydraulic and pneumatic hoses and tools across a wide range of applications. The design of the coupling ensures optimum flexibility, which results in less wear on hoses. Also, increased maneuverability…
