A pod system that eliminates the need for hand dosing
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…
A sealless thermoplastic pump for open tanks and sumps
The new range of ARBO sealless, thermoplastic immersible centrifugal pumps are ideal for situations where metal pumps could suffer from the effects of corrosion. ARBO single-stage immersible pumps can handle capacities up to 300 m3/h at differential heads up to…
These actuators’ plastic housing provides resilience and versatility
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…
Monitor heat-tracing with this thermostat
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…
For oil-fired heaters, consider this optimized de-aerator
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.…
A new panel simplifies control-valve-related functionalities
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…
This scanner can accept up to 16 process variables
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…
An intelligent valve actuator with integrated safety function
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…
Molecular structure database now has 750,000 entries
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.…
Slash mine-ventilation electricity costs with this smart system
The SmartVentilation system is a complete solution to the challenge of providing fresh air and venting toxic gases from subterranean mines. It also minimizes energy use by ventilating only those areas of a mine that require it. The company estimates…
