Removing fine iron contaminants with magnetic filters
The Dry Vibrating Magnetic Filter (DVMF; photo) is specifically designed to remove very fine iron-bearing contaminants from hard-to-flow fine powders, such as lithium, which makes it well-suited for both lithium producers and users. The standard design of a DVMF consists…
A flowmeter for sensitive production processes
To complement automated production plants, for example, in the food, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, this company has developed the CMAG magnetic inductive flowmeter (photo). This easy-to-install version of the proven IZMAG flowmeter delivers highly accurate and reliable measurement data, helping…
Electrical thermometers for very cold conditions
This company now also offers electrical thermometers in a version for ambient temperatures down to –60°C (photo). This version has been tailored for applications in the crude oil, natural gas and petrochemical industries operating in polar climates. The thermometers for…
Self-cleaning inserts for wastewater tanks
The ready-to-install, self-cleaning Amaclean tank insert (photo) decreases the amount of stagnant water in the pump sump and reduces the need for maintenance and cleaning. In combination with select impeller types used in the wastewater pumps, this tank insert eliminates…
Monitor traces of benzene with this GC unit
The eGC environmental gas-chromatograph monitor (photo) is said to be a cost-effective approach to trace-level benzene detection (below parts per billion). The manufacturer has added a new feature — a weather station — that is capable of measuring wind direction,…
Show Preview IFAT
IFAT (May 14–18, Munich, Germany; www.ifat.de) is the world’s leading tradefair for water, sewage, waste- and raw-materials management. This year, two additional halls have been added, with more than 3,100 exhibitors expected to participate, presenting the latest products and services…
Advanced low-maintenance rotary vane pumps
The new two-stage Sogevac NEO D rotary vane pump (photo) is equipped with a high-quality exhaust filter inside the oil casing. Built-in filtration reduces the required integration volume of the pump and ensures a cleaner environment without oil smoke or…
A PLC that supports modular and user-defined functions
The new Allen-Bradley Micro 870 programmable logic controller (PLC; photo) can support applications that require up to 304 I/O points, 280 kB of memory and 20,000 program instructions. The Micro870 PLC uses a flexible design concept that provides designers up…
Dense-phase conveying for fragile granules or pellets
The E-finity (photo) is a continuous, dense-phase conveying system for fragile materials. Precise pressure monitoring and airflow corrections allow the system to operate efficiently under a wide range of conditions, while gently inducing materials through the conveying line in slug…
These motor brakes avoid issues with wear and heat buildup
The MagnaShear motor brake (photo) employs oil shear technology that transmits torque between lubricated surfaces, thereby preventing wear on friction surfaces. A patented fluid-recirculation system dissipates heat, eliminating heat buildup, which is the most common problem in dry braking systems.…
