Automated switch for multiple gas-analyzer lines
Up to now, solenoid valves have been used for switching between lines used for measuring gases, but a considerable effort is required for servicing such arrangements in the event of a failure. This company has developed an alternative — a…
Predict product performance with a digital twin
The latest release of STAR-CCM+ software, v12.02, includes several new features to help product development organizations enhance and accelerate their ability to digitally simulate and understand how a product will perform in the real world using the digital twin —…
This vibrating-fork level detector has wired HART connectivity
Rosemount 2140 (photo) is said to be the world’s first wired HART vibrating-fork level detector. The Rosemount 2140 detects level in applications with high temperatures and harsh conditions that are unsuitable for other level-monitoring devices. It is easy to install…

Disposable filtration units handle a range of fluids This company has recently expanded its portfolio of EZ-Fit filtration units (photo). These ready-to-use, disposable filtration devices are designed for bioburden testing. The newer EZ-Fit pink filtration units come with a wide…
Monitor reformer-tube temperatures in realtime
The near-infrared borescope NIR-B 3XR (photo) delivers continuous, high-accuracy reformer-tube-wall temperature (TWT) measurement, furnace optimization and monitoring, giving operators the ability to measure temperature point data and to store this data for future analysis. Operating with a wide-angle field of…
Contact-free pump operation minimizes contamination
The Dry-Pro line of dry vacuum pumps (photo) feature contact-free operation that requires no lubrication in the pumping chamber, minimizing process contamination and pollution caused by the pump operation. The Dry-Pro line offers dry-screw vacuum-pump designs with fixed- or variable-pitch…
Tubular membrane modules for recycling pickling acids
With cross-flow microfiltration, suspended particles can be removed from pickling acid effectively. Due to their high resistance against acids, caustics and abrasive metal particles, the T-CUT tubular modules (photo) are particularly suitable for this application. The symmetric tubular membranes are…
Extremely long submersible canned-motor pumps
As a replacement for conventional submersible pumps, this company supplied two eight-stage, sealless canned-motor pumps of the TCAM 30/4+4 Series to a Swiss fine-chemicals company as an alternative to conventionally sealed pumps. The supplied submersible pumps (photo) are the longest…
New models added to this series of seal pumps
This company has added four new sizes to its existing series of universal-seal pumps (photo), bringing the offering to a total of 16 different sizes, with available flows up to 364 m3/h. This includes the addition of a smaller-sized pump…
Software add-on enables apps that integrate with CAD
This company has updated its LiveLink for SolidWorks products. As an add-on to the company’s Multiphysics software, LiveLink for SolidWorks allows a computer-aided design (CAD) model to be synchronized between the two software packages. The latest version of LiveLink for…
