The Mobile Perimeter System (MPS) IV (photo) is a mobile gas-monitoring platform that can be rapidly deployed for temporary or remote gas-detection applications. The solar-powered unit has an onboard strobe and siren, and can be configured with wireless communication. The…
For years, clay has been the go-to product for spill containment simply because it was cheap and did the job. While clay, also referred to as diatomaceous earth, sand or kitty litter, will always have a place in in spill…
Developed for installation in confined spaces, the ready-to-connect pressure booster systems Hya-Solo D FL Compact (photo) and Hya-Duo D FL Compact systems comprise several close-coupled pumps, an inlet tank mounted on the same baseplate and components for controlling and monitoring…
Sulfur dioxide emissions from metals smelters and other process plants are typically treated by converting the SO2 to sulfuric acid, but this may not be convenient, because of the shipping cost for plants located far from an acid market. WorleyParsons…
In the emerging and ever-expanding areas of bioprocessing, where maintaining hygienic designs and practices is of paramount importance, and semiconductor manufacturing, which has its own stringent purity requirements, there is a need to standardize the essential codes and standards that…
This company has recently introduced its SCD (forward acting) and SCR (reverse buckling) rupture discs with micro-scored calibration sections. The patent-pending technology makes the discs very flexible so that scoring in six or more sections is possible instead of the…
For installation in Zone 2 or in safe areas, the new 9410 Series of compact field-device couplers (FDCs) feature protection for the trunks against feedback through short circuits in the spurs. The cost-efficient FDCs connect up to 12 Foundation fieldbus…
A new Self-Retracting Cable Reel option is now available for this company’s range of hazardous-area static-grounding systems. The VESM02 (photo) provides a rugged and versatile alternative to spiral (retractable) cable for the Earth-Rite range of systems, which are used to…
