These optical flame detectors combine UV and IR sensing
The new FL500 optical flame detector (photo) is performance-approved for six different fuel sources: butane, ethane, heptane, methane, methanol and propane. By combining a precision ultraviolet (UV) sensor for quick response with an infrared (IR) sensor that monitors flame-emitted radiation,…
These flame arrestors decrease leakage and vibration risks
BelGAS FM flame arrestors (photo) stop ignited vapors from traveling backward into a vent line or tank, preventing explosions, burns and other hazards. The flame arrestor product line includes critical safety equipment, such as burner arrestors, inline arrestors, stack arrestors…
DP transmitters for hard-to-access locations
The Series 629C-RS wet/wet differential pressure (DP) transmitter with remote sensors (photo) is ideal for remotely monitoring differential pressure in chillers, heat exchangers and pumps. For hard-to-access applications, the RS option of the 629C differential pressure transmitters comes with remote-mountable…
New thermowells reduce vibration and fatigue
The Rosemount Twisted Square thermowell (photo) is said to reduce dynamic stress, simplify process calculations and provide more accurate temperature measurements than other thermowells on the market. Twisted Square thermowells improve reliability and reduce risk of fatigue failure through their…
Valve World Show Preview
More than 600 exhibitors from around the world will be showcasing their products at Valve World Expo 2018, the 11th International Valve Trade Fair & Conference (www.valveworldexpo.com), which is taking place at the Düsseldorf fairgrounds November 27–29. The exhibition, which…
New low-noise fans are oil-free to prevent contamination risks
The new Direct Drive high-volume, low-speed (HVLS) fan (photo) produces no noise and uses no oil. The lack of gears reduces noise, while the absence of oil means the Direct Drive HVLS fan eliminates any opportunity for contamination. The fan…
Realtime, easy-access diagnostics for PLCs
ICS Monitoring (photo) is a realtime diagnostics solution for programmable logic controllers (PLCs). The ICS platform supports the troubleshooting of PLC-based control systems by helping to find the origin of a problem more quickly and reduce downtime. ICS Monitoring simplifies…
This unit combines impact grinding and air classification
The model CAM 1300 air classifier mill (photo) combines impact grinding and air classification in one machine to produce fine powders with narrow particle-size distribution, at throughput rates up to 16.5 ton/hour. Intended for bulk foods, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, epoxy resins,…
This discharging system has built-in bag-piercing knives
The patented Material Master bulk-bag discharging system (photo) includes bag-piercing knives for the discharge of materials from bulk bags with or without an outlet spout. The system utilizes a two-ton chain hoist to lift the bulk bag into the carbon-steel…
These liquid-level sensors work when condensation is present
Typically, the presence of condensation substantially degrades the measurement signal strength of ultrasonic sensors, but new EchoTouch reflective ultrasonic liquid-level sensors (photo) work in areas with condensation. By orienting the transducer vertically, condensation runs off the unimpeded transducer face to…
