The large-diameter Optimass 2000 Coriolis mass flowmeter is capable of measuring bulk fluid transfer to accuracies of 0.1%, and can handle mass flowrates of 250–84,510 lb/min. The Optimass 2000 design retains design features of previous models that allow minimal pressure…
Pressure measurement in the chemical process industries (CPI) is crucial to many unit operations, and selecting the most effective pressure sensors for a given situation can be complicated by a range of factors. An initial key to selection is establishing…
Designed for monitoring both vacuum and positive system pressure, the PBG Series of pressure gages from this company are liquid-filled for increased vibration resistance. The gages also feature a crimped, tamper-resistant ring that provides a permanent seal between the gage…
Michell Instruments Many relative humidity (RH) instruments installed in high-humidity applications suffer from poor reliability because the electronics are exposed to the harsh, damp environment. The miniature PCmini52 probe overcomes this problem with electronics that are encapsulated in a protective…
Afriso-Euro-Index The new series DMU 02 pressure transducers (photo) are based on a polysilicon thin-film measuring cell, which combines all the positive attributes of conventional sensors, such as high output signal, dynamic behavior and long-term stability. The unit is also…
Hans Turck In cooperation with Parker Hannifin, this firm has developed a valve adapter for its BL67 I/O system as well as the valve series Isys Micro and Isys ISO from Parker. With the new modules, up to 32 valves…
Davis Instruments The Fluke 190 Series II is a digital handheld oscilloscope that is designed for challenging environments. Dustproof, drip-proof and impact-resistant, the 190 Series can measure input, output and feedback signals simultaneously to diagnose industrial electronics problems in variable-speed…
All good things come to an end. And so it is with Microsoft extended support and security updates for Windows 2000,which ended in July 2010. Any manufacturer with industrial applications that are based on Windows 2000 may wisely be considering…
Storing solid materials in hoppers, bins and silos is ubiquitous in the chemical process industries (CPI), as are challenges associated with dispensing them. In many cases, using vessels with steep cones and smooth walls is enough to provide reliable flow.…
The INTELLigauge range of pressure-measuring devices (photo) closes the gap between mechanical and electronic sensors. The combination of a pressure gauge and electrical output signal is said to be a solution that is cost effective and reliable. No external power…
