This gateway handles multiple fieldbus protocols

Last month, this company launched its first fieldbus gateway and block I/O modules that communicate with Profinet IO, Modbus TCP or Ethernet/IP. The multiprotocol devices can be operated automatically in each of the three Ethernet systems, and thus help users…

A new data logger for temperature measurements

The OM-CP-RTDTemp101A temperature data logger accepts two-, three- or four-wire 100 Pt RTD input and features a long battery life of ten years. The data logger also offers multiple start/stop function, ultra high-speed download, 670,000 reading of storage capacity, memory…

This dissolved oxygen sensor is based on optical measurement

The 2610 Optical Dissolved Oxygen sensor uses optical technology to measure dissolved oxygen, rather than the galvanic or polarimetric measurement technologies that have been used traditionally. The existing technologies require membranes and reference solutions, while the optical technique does not.…

This handheld monitor of particulate matter has a high selectivity range

The Microdust Pro airborne particulate matter monitor is a portable, hand-held instrument that assesses concentrations of suspended matter in a sensitivity range of 1 µg/m3 to 2,500 mg/m3. The wide range makes it one of the most versatile monitors on…

New piping software slashes time for modeling workflows

With the new release, EdgeWise MEP for Autodesk Revit, users can now, for the first time, bring extracted pipes, conduits and other cylindrical mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) elements directly into Revit. This new MEP software leverages the powerful feature-extraction…

Let this company collect and analyze machinery vibration data

This condition-monitoring specialist company has introduced a vibration data collection-and-analysis service for industrial plant operators that aims to minimize downtime and maximize productivity. Where no fixed machine condition-monitoring system is available (or is impractical) for critical plant, this company recommends…

No membranes required for this dissolved oxygen sensor

The new 2610 Optical Dissolved Oxygen Sensor utilizes optical technology to measure dissolved oxygen with high repeatability and accuracy while reducing maintenance and energy costs, says the company. This device eliminates the need for replacement membranes and reference solutions associated…

New features offered in this latest CFD software

Last month saw the release of V15.18, the latest version of Gridgen software for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) mesh generation. Gridgen V15.18 is said to increase the recovery of prism cells from the layers of extruded tetrahedra in the boundary…

Software simulates vibrations to keep machinery healthy

In order to detect unexpected torsional and lateral vibrations in mechanical drive systems, computer simulation is crucial to determine the dynamic behavior of rotating machinery. This company offers a new, revised software package to simulate both torsional and lateral vibrations…

This wireless vibration transmitter now has ATEX approval

With ATEX Zone 0 and Class I, Div. 1 ratings, the CSI 9420 Wireless Vibration Transmitter can now be installed directly in hazardous areas, such as chemical, petrochemical and offshore facilities, as well as other explosion-classified environments. The safety ratings,…
