The Pamas SBBS laboratory particle analyzer system has been upgraded to be equipped with an optional, small pressure-vessel container for handling small sample volumes (1–5 mL) of high-viscosity liquids, such as protein solutions. This new integrated pressure container is used…
A new family of network-interface modules, dubbed netJack, has been launched to quickly and easily add or change fieldbus and Industrial Ethernet protocols in automation devices. Thirteen different protocols are supported, including fieldbuses, such as DeviceNet and Profibus, and Industrial…
The new TGT73 is the third mechatronic product of the intelliTHERM family — a hybrid concept derived from pressure measurement technology. With the new thermometers, temperatures can be precisely controlled and adjusted; in the event of power loss, the analog…
Plant operators can now see at a glance how their plant is changing over time using the new CompareMap tool, which highlights the biggest changes in plant performance, and provides drill-down into corrective actions. The CompareMap approach compares the plant…
Pumps are among the most commonly used machines in the chemical process industries (CPI). Condition monitoring tests and predictive maintenance can help pump operators determine when to overhaul pumps in a way that minimizes costs. Despite pumps’ ubiquity and large…
Information management provides a way to develop new materials, products or formulations more rapidly, on the basis of the information that a company already possesses in-house, while providing insight that can be used to guide experimentation and predict results —…
The new version of this company’s asset management software, AMS Suite: Machinery Health Manager 5.5, augments the analysis of predictive diagnosis from mechanical assets by delivering advanced plot capabilities, including animation and audio waveform, interactive reporting and online collaboration. Through…
The MiniTest 300 is a vacuum leak detector that uses a quartz-window sensor, rather than a mass spectrometer. Weighing only 11 lb, the unit is suited to mobile leak detection at onsite service calls. The MiniTest 300 operates at a…
The Model 140 MX flowmeter uses its specially designed geometric shape to generate self-induced oscillations. The 140 MX has no moving parts or bluff bodies to wear or jam. The flowmeter is also able to handle high-viscosity fluids and low…
The OPK-341 Industrial Leak Detection Kit is designed to help locate fluid leaks in hydraulic equipment, compressors, engines, gearboxes, as well as fuel and other synthetic and petroleum-based industrials systems. The kit features a cordless, rechargeable, LED flashlight that is…
