Focus on Valves
These versatile, modular valves enable quick installation More than 2,500 configurations are available in the the Spira-trol Control Valve family (photo). These modular valves are pre-commissioned in the manufacturer’s U.S. factory, and are shipped within two to three days of…
Cybersecurity for legacy control systems
SerialTap (photo) is a new cybersecurity solution for legacy industrial control networks that rely on serial communication protocols, such as RS-485 and RS-232. SerialTap consists of a patented sensing device that passively intercepts serial communications on legacy industrial control networks…
New motor options for drum pumps
This company’s Finish Thompson drum pumps and barrel-emptying pumps are now available with the TEFC (totally enclosed fan-cooled) IP55 motor (photo). The new motors include a powerful 1,000-W continuous-duty universal motor providing variable-speed operation from 0 to 12,000 rpm. The…
A pressure gage for frigid conditions
The T6500 pressure gage (photo) is designed for use in environments with extremely low temperatures. The 100-mm solid-front stainless-steel pressure gage features several design considerations to optimize its configuration for extreme conditions. The XQC option includes a low-temperature-rated silicone fill…
A solution to optimize motor performance in cooling towers
Series M Geareducers (photo) are designed and manufactured to directly replace other gearboxes in field-erected cooling towers. The Geareducer’s primary function is to reduce the speed of the electric motor to optimize fan performance by maximizing air movement through the…
A new valve series for extreme conditions
The new 190 Series (photo) of control and shutoff valves features dye-forged pressure-containing parts (valve housing and bonnet), guaranteeing a homogeneous material structure without any discontinuities. Such microscopic defects, which are very difficult to prevent and to evaluate, especially on…
New disc technology boosts centrifuge separation capacity
UniDisc (photo) is this company’s latest innovation for disc stack separators. This new disc technology is said to increase separation capacity by as much as 30%, while simultaneously providing an extremely high degree of hygiene. Unlike traditional separator discs with…
This compressor is more compact than its predecessors
The new Aerzen Turbo G5 plus (photo) high-efficiency turbocompressor features air-foil bearings with a double coating of Teflon and graphite, which provides increased temperature resistance and a lifetime of more than 80,000 h of operation — independently from start and…
The launch of a new magnetic level-gage switch
The new LMS200 magnetically actuated level-gage switch (photo) is non-invasive and designed to improve the ease of use, safety and reliability of magnetically coupled switches in demanding conditions. The level setpoint is easily adjustable without changing any process piping or…
Pump impeller delivers improved suction characteristics
Movitec multistage high-pressure pumps (photo) feature a new impeller that significantly improves the pumps’ suction characteristics, including net positive suction head (NPSH). The impeller is particularly suitable in applications with critical inlet conditions (for instance, boiler-feed applications), as well as…
