Applications for the new Model BR back-pressure regulator (photo) include overpressure regulation of cryogenic liquids, sour gas, industrial gases and chemicals, as well as common industrial fluids like water, oil, steam and compressed air. Available in globe or angular porting…
The HI 6500-XP Extreme Weight Processor (photo) is an EtherNet/IP-enabled weight processor that can process and output 300 updates per second of processed stable weight. The processor’s fast communication with the process logic controller (PLC) allows for higher product yield…
KUB reverse-acting buckling-pin rupture discs (photo) are well suited for use with pressure equipment, such as reactors, tanks, pipework, gas cylinders and pressure vessels. The KUB requires no torqueing, allowing for the disc to be periodically examined and placed back…
This company has introduced a new Electronic Pressure Compensation (EPC) system for high-accuracy loss-in-weight feeders. Improvements to the system include higher accuracy and reliability when compared with traditional mechanical pressure-compensation systems, which can be sensitive to structural factors and machine…
The ASI 35 modular leak-detection system is especially suited for use with tracer gases, such as helium and hydrogen, in integral and localizing test procedures, or a combination of both, with minimum signal background and crosstalk, providing for fast overall…
Turbolab high-vacuum pump systems (photo) are compact and pre-assembled, and are available with different configurations to cover a wide range of vacuum demands. The system’s turbo pumps feature an oil-free hybrid bearing design. Turbolab systems are available in tabletop or…
