By minimizing, or even eliminating, the need for blowdowns in steam systems, precoat filter demineralizer systems can greatly contribute to water-conservation efforts Steam is essential in any chemical process plant, primarily for generating heat and power. Power generation (the largest…
When it comes to water used in boilers, it is important to remove potentially problematic impurities. This offers a potentially huge return on investment, even with the prevention of just one major upset, let alone recurring failures Several decades ago,…
The IS540.1 (photo) is said to be the world’s first 5G smartphone for ATEX and IECEx zone 1/21. The intrinsically safe mobile device, which was also developed for use in 5G campus networks, offers extensive deployment scenarios ranging from predictive…
The Centri-Sifter M1 (photo) is a centrifugal sifter specially designed to help address the high costs associated with maintenance and recruiting, training and retaining skilled labor. The Centri-Sifter M1 sifts, scalps, de-agglomerates and dewaters granular materials ranging from dry bulk…
This company’s new batch-weighing system (photo) is designed for accurate batching direct to blenders or mixers. The station features a P100 batch-weigh receiver combined with a KT20 loss-in-weight twin-screw feeder, mounted on a collection hopper. The batch-weigh receiver combines a…
The Rosemount 3408 level transmitter (photo) is a non-contacting radar device designed to optimize ease-of-use, leading to increased safety and enhanced plant performance. While the benefits of radar level measurement are widely acknowledged, the company says radars are still sometimes…
This company is expanding its portfolio of light-emitting diode (LED) lights with the robust LED indicators of the K100 series (photo). The 100-mm beacons — developed by partner company Banner Engineering — are available in two configurations. The Pro Daylight…
The new KFU8-SR-EX* (photo) is a universal powered switch amplifier that can be used in intrinsically safe applications and functional safety installations up to safety integrity level (SIL)2. The new KFU8 device can be supplied with 19 to 30 V…
The new Series PI (photo) is a variable-area flowmeter that utilizes a spring-loaded piston. The fluid flow in the application causes this piston to move along the axis of a precision-tapered shaft, creating a variable orifice in direct proportion to…
The HYT 939P temperature and humidity sensor (photo) is equipped with a PTFE filter, which makes it well-suited for industrial drying applications. The sensor’s compact housing allows for easy positioning within the monitored process, while the filter minimizes the influence…
