This agitator avoids fibrous buildup
The Chemineer RL-3 impeller (photo) has been specifically engineered to prevent fibrous material buildup on the rotating impeller. This rag-shedding impeller also provides a strong axial flow for efficient blending and solids suspension. The design allows for a safer process…
New release of this structural analysis software
GT Strudl 2018 R1 software offers fully integrated and database-driven software for general finite element analysis (FEA) and comprehensive structural engineering design. The solution includes 10 functional areas that operate seamlessly with one another. This release includes new capabilities that…
These AODD pumps have a safety-enhancing design
New C-Series air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pumps (photo) are designed to enable the housing parts to be tightened to each other via housing bolts. Rather than using single bolts that press against the housing, all of the C-Series’ bolts are tightened…
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 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…
Focus on Flow Measurement & Control
A flowmeter for biopharmaceutical processes The Flexmag 4050 C (photo) is said to be the first electromagnetic flowmeter with a biocompatible, disposable flow tube specifically developed for single-use biopharmaceutical applications, including filtration processes, chromatography or buffer and media preparation. Featuring…
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…
