Monitor dust levels in the workplace with this unit
Fidas Frog (photo) is a new fine dust aerosol spectrometer that measures the fine-dust load in indoor areas, such as office workplaces, workshops or laboratories. It shows the PM fractions and optionally the particle-size distributions and more. Fidas Frog communicates…
Safe combustible-dust explosion isolation with this system
Tanks, silos and equipment are usually connected by pipelines through which, if an explosion occurs, fire and the pressure spread very rapidly. In addition, the intensity of the explosion in connected containers is increased by pressure piling and flame jet…
This level bob has a Teflon coating
The Teflon-coated spike bob (photo) is an optional SmartBob probe specifically adapted for measuring powders and solids material that may adhere to the sensor probe. It is ideal for use in sticky materials such, as silica or “frack” sand, powdered…
Customized process vessels and mixing systems
This company’s pressure vessels and integrated mixing/processing systems (photo) are used in production, pilot plants and laboratories for processing, reacting or blending specialty chemicals, adhesives, coatings, biomaterials recycling and more. High-quality materials, welding and finishing assure integrity and validation in…
Laboratory dryer simulates production steps
The fully equipped laboratory dryer BS-miniDRY (photo) has a mobile and compact design. It is easy to install and enables “plug-and-play” operation. The BS-miniDRY can simulate complex processes and production steps, such as drying under vacuum. Because it is identically…
Tableting technology debuts in North America

This weight processor boasts fast PLC communications
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…
A two-layer rupture disc with a long service life
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…
Focus on Industrial Hygiene
This hood captures unwanted fumes from work spaces The Purair Advanced P20 Ductless Fume Hood (photo) is designed to protect workplace operators from hazardous substances. It provides a face velocity of 100 ft/min to contain fumes. The unit is 49-in.…
Modular, electronic pressure compensation for feeders
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…
