VarioPur (photo) is a new product range that includes three high-performance materials based on thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU/AU). Both abrasion and extrusion resistance are at least five times higher than those of the traditional material, NBR (nitrile butyl rubber). The three…
The PolyCera Hydro (photo) is a new ultrafiltration membrane for drinking water applications where total suspended solids (TSS), turbidity and pathogen removal are of concern. PolyCera Hydro can be used in place of conventional polymeric membranes for drinking-water treatment in…
The new fillpac bag placer (photo) enables efficient bag filling for materials from the construction, cement, mineral and chemical industries. With its standardized modular design, the fillpac provides numerous setup options. For instance, users can set it up at any…
The sound waves from the discharge side of this company’s Delta Screw compressor can reach 170–190 dB. Therefore, a downstream silencer is obligatory, as with other compressors. In conventional dissipative silencers, the high frequencies of the sound waves lead to…
The new HART Multiplexer System (photo) offers the possibility to drastically reduce the number of multiplexer modules, while maintaining the ability to control up to 7,936 channels. Through the integration of multiplexing units in the Termination Board (TB-D5001-HRT), this system…
The HPP272 probe for the measurement of vaporized hydrogen peroxide (photo) can measure not only the hydrogen peroxide content (ppm) of bio-decontamination processes, but also temperature, relative humidity (RH, only water vapor) and relative saturation (RS, whole gas mixture). The…
The new digiVIT digital variable impedance transducer for linear position, displacement and proximity sensing (photo) features a self-tuning bridge that can work with nearly any sensor and any conductive target. The transducer also features simple pushbutton calibration, temperature compensation and…
The Ultima X5000 gas monitor (photo) is a replacement for this company’s Ultima X device, eliminating the need for specialized setup tools or a separate controller. The Ultima X5000 can be operated from the two touch buttons on its OLED…
The new Sitrans FS230 clamp-on ultrasonic flow system (photo) is a combination of the Sitrans FST030 transmitter and Sitrans FSS200 clamp-on sensors. The Sitrans FST030 transmitter includes a digital sensor link that digitizes the signal at the earliest stage of…
A relatively small shift in the cut point (the threshold temperature for good product) for any petroleum-refinery product can cost refiners millions of dollars in profits. In the absence of fast, accurate and reproducible boiling point data, refinery product yields…
