Track compressor health with this new monitor

This manufacturer is launching the next level of its tried-and-tested system for monitoring reciprocating compressors, the new RecipCOM generation. In addition to continuously monitoring the status of all critical compressor components, the RecipCOM system offers reliable realtime machinery protection and,…

This flow controller is unaffected by temperature and pressure

The family of B-Series mass flow controllers (photo) is designed to be insensitive to fluctuations in pressure and temperature. Each flow controller is built on a standard 1.125-in.-wide platform with a powerful user interface and local digital display. The mass…

This system tests small, uncatalyzed membrane samples

The Model 740 Membrane Test System (MTS) is the first commercial instrument designed specifically for measurement of the through-thickness resistance and conductivity of ionomer and polymer electrolyte membranes. Only a small sample of bare (non-catalyzed) membrane is required, eliminating the…

A thermocouple connector that communicates wirelessly

The MWCT Wireless Smart Thermocouple Connector Series (photo) features stand-alone, battery-powered thermocouple (TC) connectors that transmit measurement data back to a mating receiver up to 90 m away. Each unit is factory set as a Type J, K, T, E,…

Ultrasonic flowmeters for drop-by-drop dosing

GEMÜ The PFA SonicLine ultrasonic flowmeters (photo) are now available in a new, low-flow version for quantities from 0.03–6 L/min in DN 3/8 in. Flowrates from 0.5–1 mL/s are achieved, which corresponds to almost one drop at a time and…

Extend level measurement with this flexible probe

BinMaster Level Controls The Procap capacitance probe (photo) features a flexible, extendable cable design for high-, middle- or low-level detection when the probe must be mounted on top of the bin. The device is especially suitable for applications where a…

Measure bulk material flows with no moving parts

K-Tron The Smart FlowMeter (photo) is used for in line weighing applications in processes requiring reliable metering and registering of bulk material flows. Based on Newtonian physics principles, the Smart FlowMeter is capable of measuring granules, chips and fibers. As…

The pressure range of this gage has expanded

Fluke The PPC4 pressure controller (photo) and calibrator has an expanded pressure range, 0.15 psi to 2,000 psi, including gage-pressure equivalents and low-pressure differentials. It is designed for testing pneumatic pressure instruments in calibration laboratories and manufacturing environments. The PPC4’s…

Deposits are not a problem for this process refractometer

Flexim To meet the requirements of the chemical industry, versions of the PIOX R400 process refractometer (photo) for use in explosive atmospheres from ATEX Zones 2 to 0 are now available. The device measures the light transmitted through the entire…

Monitor combustion flames in realtime with this camera

Lenox Instrument The FireSight Thermal Imaging Camera System (photo) can provide clear, realtime monitoring of furnace and boiler flames, as well as accurate, non-contact temperature measurement. Designed to be installed through a small opening in the combustion chamber wall, the…
