Endress+Hauser opens new temperature-instrumentation plant in U.S.

Endress+Hauser (Reinach, Switzerland; www.us.endress.com) has opened a new production facility in Greenwood, Indiana. The 12,000-ft2 manufacturing plant will build temperature sensors, thermowells, transmitters, recorders, flow computers, safety barriers, displays and other instrumentation to meet the increasing demand for this instrumentation…

Measuring Flow

One of the most important measurements in the chemical process industries (CPI) is rate of flow. Flowrates can be important to measure, and in fact can be critical to measure, throughout a process — from dosing components into a reactor…

Information Gets Dynamic

As engineers in the chemical process industries (CPI) are pressed harder to meet deadlines in the workplace, the amount of information available to them in their field is growing at an exponential pace. To address the situation, chemistry- and engineering-oriented…

Reduce Gas Entrainment In Liquid Lines

A common practice in the chemical process industries (CPI) is to implement so-called value- maximization projects (VMP) to increase production or reduce production costs in order to increase profit margins. With such projects, one main objective of the design team…

NIR integrated with Allen Bradley systems

The DA 7300 Inline NIR (near infrared) analyzer has been upgraded and can now be seamlessly integrated into industrial environments using OPC and RS-Linx. The instrument has already been integrated with Siemens S7, using built-in OPC server; with Schneider Electric…

New features for these paddle switches

The rotating paddle switches of the series Rotonivo RN3000, RN6000 and RN4000 are now available with universal voltage electronics. This means these level switches can be used anywhere in the world, regardless of the country’s input voltage system, without the…

A new standard for quantifying heavy elements

Developed for laboratories conducting environmental, geological and waste-disposal analysis, the Xepos HE (heavy element) x-ray fluorescence (XRF) instrument is optimized for the analysis of medium and heavy elements. It achieves detection limits that are a factor of five to ten…

Alarm controllers for up to 64 gas monitors

The new WX Series of gas-detection alarm controllers consists of three controllers: the WX4 (four-channel controller), the WX16 (16-channel controller) and the WX 64 (64-channel controller). The WX Series controllers are designed for continuous monitoring of up to four, 16…
