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…

This handheld device quickly analyzes duplex steel for N and C

The Spectrotest TXC25 high-performance, mobile metal analyzer is capable of rapidly determining the nitrogen content in duplex steels with a spark excitation, and quickly identifying low-alloy steels using carbon excitation. The unit’s thin sample probe enables hard-to-reach sample areas, such…

This analyzer provides a top view of surface properties

Krüss The TVA100 Top View Analyzer (photo) measures the contact angle of liquids using the image of light spots that are mirrored by the curved surface of the drop. Contact angles in the lower range (down to 1.5 deg), which…

Multi fluid and multi range gives flexibility and cost reduction

The Select Series of digital mass flowmeters and controllers offers greater flexibility for user selection of both flow ranges and gas types. For user convenience, the firm has developed a free software tool called FlowTune. By hooking up the instrument…

Measure flow and pressure in microfluidic systems

Dolomite Centre Mitos Sensor units (photo) are designed to measure flow and pressure in microfluidic systems. Capable of displaying results in realtime, the sensors have low internal volumes, and are designed to minimize interference with the liquid flow. The Mitos…
