High-level detector has mercury-free tilt switch The patent-pending BM-TSM tilt switch (photo) used for high-level detection of powders and bulk solids mounts on the top of bins and activates an alarm when material rises and tilts the switching mechanism by…
This modular “pod” system is a self-contained, batch weighing and metering system that delivers dry powder ingredients directly into a vacuum-conveying line with high accuracy and low cost, according to the company. The new pod system is suitable for the…
The ECP Series of thermoplastic quarter-turn electric actuators (photo) features glass-filled polypropylene (GFPP) housing, which provides corrosion resistance. This housing allows the actuator to operate in applications in harsh conditions, where metal actuators are not suitable, including water and waterwater…
The Raychem ETS-05 electronic, surface-sensing thermostat (photo) accurately controls and monitors temperature for heat-tracing installations. Compared to previous electronic thermostats, it provides an increased maximum current load, larger connection terminals, a broader temperature-control range, local LED indications and an additional…
With the new plicsLED display module, the switching status of a sensor can be read from afar, even in strong sunlight. The module is compatible with all of the sensors in this company’s “plics” family with relay output: VegaSwing series…
The new automatic FloCo-TOP-2 fuel-oil de-aerator was designed for continuous de-aeration and filtration of fuel oil, diesel, biofuel and biodiesel with 0–20% FAME in oil-fired heating systems (single-line systems with return supply). The de-aerator features a number of technical innovations.…
Automated process valves using pneumatic actuators always require a range of various instrumentation components to build specific functions for each application. In conventional single-engineered solutions, components are typically assembled all around the actuator. To date, valve assembly-related instrumentation has been…
The Vantageview PD6730X Modbus scanner is designed for accurate display of and quick access to information, locally or remotely, in wet or dirty environments. The scanner can accept up to 16 individually programmed process variables (PVs) from multiple devices, and…
The TriVAX (photo) and TriVAX flex intelligent electrohydraulic valve actuators are as easy to install and handle as an all-electric drive unit, yet are as powerful, robust and durable as an actuator that is entirely hydraulic. The intelligent electronics ensure…
Over 750,000 entries are now available to the scientific community through the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). This fully validated database, established in 1965, contains all small-molecule chemical structures ever published, and is an essential resource to scientists around the world.…
