Gas metering for extruded plastic-foam production

The Plastinum DSD 400 gas-metering system (photo), designed for extruded-plastic-foam manufacturing, provides precise amounts of liquid CO2 or gaseous N2 during the extrusion process to help optimize foaming and reduce density. The system’s ability to quickly react to constantly changing…

Air-quality monitoring with many connectivity options

The OnGuard Smart corrosion-monitoring device incorporates a room pressure sensor and WiFi capabilities to provide a complete picture of the environment’s air quality with multiple connectivity options. In addition to measuring room pressure, the OnGuard Smart also monitors temperature and…

These thermoplastic ball valves feature improved ergonomics

The new design of the Omni Type-27 compact ball valve (photo) includes a smooth ergonomic handle with open/shut indication. The rugged, injection-molded one-piece body features a single-threaded and sealed end carrier, and double-stem O-ring seals provide added leak protection. The…

This respirator hood is certified for an extended service life

The Parat 4920 escape-hood respirator (photo) recently received approval by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) for an extended service life of 16 years, provided that the filter is exchanged after eight years. Replacing the filter halfway…

Monitor benzene with this targeted gas detector

The TA-2100 benzene gas detector utilizes advanced photo-ionization sensor technology to provide fixed, continuous monitoring in both indoor and outdoor installations in demanding industrial environments. The detector provides low-ppm detection limits as a critical part of an early warning system.…

Quiet, low-vibration pumps for sensitive applications

The Ecodry plus (photo) is a vacuum pump designed specifically for applications in the transition area between small laboratory equipment and large-scale industrial machines, in the size class ranging from 40–60 m3/h. Ecodry pumps’ quiet operation — the average noise…

A plastic piping system for very low temperatures

The ecoFIT polyethylene (PE) piping system (photo) provides chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and high impact strength, even at low temperatures. The ecoFIT product line consists of a complete range of system components, including valves and connections. Other performance characteristics include…

Stainless-steel flanges now available on these AODD pumps

The Husky line of corrosion-resistant stainless-steel air-operated double diaphragm (AODD) pumps (photo) has been expanded to include stainless-steel ANSI/DIN welded flanges.
