Analyze heterogeneous materials with this NIR instrument

The design of the new DA 7250 near infrared (NIR) instrument incorporates non-moving optical components, internal temperature stabilization, a static hard drive encased in an IP65-rated housing. The DA 7250 removes and reduces many sources of errors common to other…

This Coriolis flowmeter is the smallest of its kind

The RotaMass LR (photo) is claimed to be the world’s smallest dual bent-tube Coriolis mass flowmeter. The unit is designed to be self-draining and to measure both liquids and gases, with a mass flow measurement span from 0 to 40…

Focus on Pressure Measurement & Control

Omega Engineering A compact pressure transmitter for easy reading Rangeable industrial pressure transmitters in the PX5100 Series (photo) are compact and feature a backlit display for easy reading that rotates for its location. Wetted parts are made of stainless steel,…

Analyze pulp online with this instrument

The new Metso Pulp Analyzer provides the first online measurement of micro-scale details of fiber properties, thereby giving pulp and papermakers a tool to help predict how fiber properties will affect final sheet-strength properties. The pulp analyzer features a new…

Use Simplified Lifecycle-Cost Computations to Justify Upgrades

Virtually every process-plant manager pursues the commendable goals of safely extending equipment life and maximizing both the availability and reliability of plant assets. Achieving these objectives usually requires upfront effort and money — both of which can be scarce resources.…

Simulation for the Masses

While almost all chemical processors employ simulation software during the early design stages of new plants or new lines, simulation vendors say best-in-class facilities take the powerful tools further and use them for improving operations and profitability. And, across the…

Managing Pressure while Pigging an Oil Pipeline

How to utilize a pipeline inspection gauge (pig) in a crude-oil pipeline that requires a pressure control valve can be a bewildering question for process engineers, especially in cases where the oil pipeline does not have any pig-launcher and receiver…

Batch Control: Controller- Versus Server-Based Sequencers

When designing a batch system, engineers often select the control solution based on the size of the system. It is traditionally thought that small batch systems require a controller-based sequencing solution, while larger systems require a server-based solution. However, despite…

This level indicator has a variety of probes available

The new PulsFox PMG 10 guided micropulse level indicators are designed to measure the level of high- or low-viscosity, adhesive, conductive or isolating liquids or bulk solids in storage or process containers, silos or tanks. The level indicator operates on…

These upgraded scales have a remote display

This company’s MSI-4260 and MSI 3460 crane scale models have been upgraded to allow its use with a new remote display. Compatibility with the remote display product offers an added advantage of seeing and controlling weight data wirelessly from a…
