The model CPG1200 digital pressure gage (photo) enables flexible setting of operating pressures, readjusting pressure switches and carrying out pressure monitoring, for example, leak testing during transport. The battery-operated CPG1200 has been designed for use in mobile applications. Thanks to…
This company recently released new condition-monitoring software with built-in analytics. Using artificial intelligence, the new Analytics (photo) for online condition monitoring helps hygienic industries prevent unplanned downtime, extends the lifetime of valuable assets and helps reach sustainability targets. Analytics is…
For a pharmaceutical manufacturer, this company developed a customized product to measure significantly varying pressures from a single measuring point. The solution was to use two pressure transmitters from the Pascal CV3 series, each covering different measuring ranges and both…
This company introduced a bulk-material feeder suitable for installation in processing lines that require cleaning-in-place (CIP) for process equipment. Developed for food, dairy, nutrition, pharmaceutical and other sanitary operations, the Feedos S-H/P CIP (photo) integrates a series of spray nozzles…
The new CO2 Feed System (photo) is a safe and effective way to adjust pH and minimize risk associated with dangerous mineral acids. The 0–100% scaled flowmeter has an integral adjustment needle valve for increased accuracy. Additional benefits of the…
It is well known that mercury is not only toxic, but is also highly mobile. As a result, Hg emissions from both industrial processes (gold mining, combustion of fossil fuels, cement production, waste incineration and more), as well as natural…
When a sliding interface experiences a coefficient of friction (CoF) below 0.01, the situation is said to have superlubricity. In the past, superlubricity has been limited to the microscale in controlled environments, and to ceramic surfaces with polar-fluid lubrication. Now,…
One of the major byproducts of the nuclear fission process used for power generation is 137Cs, a radioactive isotope of Cs that has a half-life of 30 years and is often removed from nuclear-power-plant wastewater via selective adsorption using ion…
Typically, when workers wear a face shield, they still have safety glasses on underneath. That is because most face shields have gaps on the bottom and sides that can let dangerous materials in. Conversely, Vader Combo (photo) is a face…
For intelligent textiles to function effectively, they need to be strong, stretchable and electrically conductive. However, fabricating fibers that possess these three properties has been challenging. Drawing inspiration from how spiders spin silk to make webs, an international team of…
