Unload 4,000-lb bulk bags with this heavy-duty discharger
The Model MTD-4K bulk-bag discharger (photo) is designed for the reliable unloading of large-capacity bulk bags. With the use of 4-in. tubular construction, the machine can unload bulk bags with capacity up to 4,000 lb. A smaller model, the MTD-2.5K…
Measure propylene glycol content in water with these test strips
WaterWorks Propylene Glycol Check is said to be the world’s first visual test strip that measures propylene glycol levels. With simpler operations than a refractometer, the strip verifies that fluids are in good working order to prevent damage to cooling…
Dissolved-air flotation optimized for exhaust-air treatment cycles
Traditional dissolved-air flotation systems produce the flotation motive water through air saturation of a partial flow in the plant outflow. The saturation usually takes place using multi-stage pumps, which only run smoothly if they are fed with pH-neutral wastewater that…
Security features are built into this controller
The new Allen-Bradley CompactLogix 5380 controller (photo) provides up to 20% more application capacity than previous CompactLogix versions. This controller is particularly helpful for high-speed packaging applications where fast response times are critical, says the manufacturer. Features such as scheduled…
Sensors and Detectors
Solid-state sensor protects machinery from shocks The AGLD Series Ground Fault Sensors (photo) keep machinery and operators safe from accidental shocks. They are designed to monitor large machines, to detect moisture ingress in water-delivery and treatment systems, and to ensure…
These limit switches require no batteries
This company’s line of wireless limit switches (photo) feature an internal electrodynamic energy generator — no battery is required. Displacement of the actuator generates power to send a uniquely coded signal to one or more compatible, easily-programmed receivers. If the…
These low-emission burners produce less noise
Developed with computational fluid dynamics (CFD), as well as practical combustion tests, the ACE low-emission burner (photo) produces very low NOx emissions. Its CO emissions are also very low. In typical conditions, the NOx emissions of natural-gas combustion are less…
An aluminum version of this AODD pump is now available
The HS430S Advanced FIT 1.5-in. high-pressure AODD pump is now available in an aluminum version (photo) that is well-suited for applications that require high head pressures, such as viscous and solid-laden slurries. The aluminum pump comes equipped with the FIT…
All-new industrial thin client for virtualized HMI systems
The BTC01 is a new standalone industrial-box thin client that is ideal for modular virtualized human-machine-interface (HMI) systems. It comes preloaded with this company’s new proprietary operating system, RM Shell 4.0. The BTC01 features enhanced security, a new user interface…
An easily expandable wireless I/O system
The new Multi-Point Wireless I/O system allows users to transfer I/O or Modbus data to and from multiple locations without the hassle of wires, conduit, trenching or permits. The secure system deploys quickly and can be used indoors or outdoors…
