A dual sampler for monitoring cleanrooms

With the new Duo-SAS-360 Isolator, it is now possible to monitor the critical microbiological quality of air in cleanrooms and isolators. Two stainless-steel aspirating heads, with a long connecting cable, can be positioned in different locations and controlled from outside…

These modules for fluid handling are pre-engineered

The Pre-engineered Subsystems are a series of five, standardized subsystems for use in all types of plants and facilities where fluids are processed. Each subsystem features integrated design of key safety and efficiency measures. The first products include the following…

Consider these diaphragm pumps where space is limited

A PTFE diaphragm permits compact construction of this diaphragm pump, and offers cost savings for high-pressure applications. A patented pressure-supported diaphragm-fixation system is used, so that the fixation is structurally prevented from expanding during the pressure stroke. No auxiliary seal…

Nozzles that produce a cone for viscous fluids

This new air-atomizing nozzle enables the effective spraying of viscous fluids at very fine atomization but at low flowrates. The XA ER nozzle provides a full cone spray pattern for liquids with viscosity of 100 cP or more. The nozzle…

Mag-drive pumps for hazardous liquids

Available from this company, the Dickow magnetically coupled centrifugal pumps include the KM series, which handles capacities as high as 65 m3/h at heads up to 65 m. All KM Series pumps are magnetically coupled, so they are leak-free. Available…

Solar cells made of carbon nanotubes

A solar cell made of carbon nanotube (CNT) fiber has been demonstrated by researchers from Fudan University (Shanghai; www.fudan.edu.cn). University professor Huisheng Peng says, “For the fibers we use, the carbon nanotubes exhibit a high degree of alignment with much…

Reduce chemical costs with this emulsion breaker

The new generation of this company’s Embreak emulsion breakers employs new chemistry designed for light- and medium-density crude petroleum. The products deliver optimal desalter performance, the company says, while reducing the generation of nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPE), a byproduct of emulsion…

These roots pumps cover a wide range of pumping speeds

Pfeiffer Vacuum Large pressure ranges and maximum compression ratios are the ideal site of operation for the gas-cooled roots pump OktaLine G. The pumping speed ranges from 250 to 12,000 m3/h, and is suited for low and medium vacuum, such…
