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…
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…
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,…
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…
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.…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
