Realtime monitoring of water-solvent drying
This company has demonstrated that tunable diode-laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) can provide the advantages of continuous process control of pharmaceutical drying to manufacturers using water as their primary solvent. Working with a pharmaceutical manufacturer, this company carried out a production…
A metering pump for low-pressure ranges
The Ecodos diaphragm metering pump (photo) is mechanically driven, rather than hydraulically driven. Due to its simple construction, it operates without hydraulic oil and can also be used for sensitive applications in the pharmaceutical field. Fluids that would react with…
Detect thunderstorms well before the first lightning strikes
For many manufacturing facilities, thunderstorms can play a significant role in disrupting operations from an increased risk of ignition due to static electricity, as well as lightning strikes to the plant and process equipment. Many manufacturing and storage-transfer processes have…
This drum dumper is dust tight
A new Tip-Tite Mobile Drum Dumper (photo) allows dust-free transfer of bulk materials from drums into process equipment and storage vessels. It is mounted on a mobile frame with quick-action floor jacks for stable operation anywhere in the plant. A…
Gloves for abrasion protection without sacrificing dexterity
The SmartCut BKCR3520 (photo) is an ANSI Cut Level 3 glove, which is designed to combine medium-level cut protection with excellent abrasion and slip resistance, with a high level of dexterity. Its slip-resistant foam nitrile palm coat provides a secure…
IFAT Show Preview
More than 3,000 exhibitors are projected to participate in IFAT 2016 — the International Trade Fair for Water, Sewage, Waste and Raw Materials Management (May 30–June 3; Munich, Germany). Celebrating its 50th year, IFAT has grown tremendously in all sections…
Radar measurement with 79 GHz technology
The Micropilot NMR81 (photo) utilizes 79 GHz technology to generate a narrow beam angle of 3 or 4 deg. Measurements are substantially more reliable, even in narrow tanks, because the radar beam avoids obstacles, such as baffles on the tank…
This flowmeter automatically synchronizes calibration data
The FCB400 (photo) is the latest expansion in the CoriolisMaster product range of mass flowmeters. A new standard-electronics platform offers users up to five configurable communication outputs via optional plug-in modules, and the entirely digital internal-communication system requires no special…
This walk-in oven is designed to process flammable solvents
The No. 1003 gas-fired walk-in oven (photo) is intended for drying molded fiber parts. The 500°F oven features 4-in.-thick insulated walls and an aluminized steel exterior. The oven’s interior is stainless steel with continuously welded seams and insulated floor. No.…
Dust-collecting filters that are flame retardant and conductive
The new HemiPleat FR Carbon dust-collector filter (photo) combines flame-retardant and conductive properties in a single filter. With high efficiency and a long service life, the cartridge filters are especially suited for explosive-dust applications, making it possible to conform to…
