New PE resins allow for faster film-production rates
Developed through advanced catalyst technology and process research, Exceed XP performance polymers are specifically designed to run at faster film-production rates in a variety of film applications. The polyethylene (PE) resins offer a high level of protection and preservation for…
These limit switches require no batteries
This company’s line of wireless limit switches (photo) feature an internal electrodynamic energy generator — no battery is required. Displacement of the actuator generates power to send a uniquely coded signal to one or more compatible, easily-programmed receivers. If the…
These low-emission burners produce less noise
Developed with computational fluid dynamics (CFD), as well as practical combustion tests, the ACE low-emission burner (photo) produces very low NOx emissions. Its CO emissions are also very low. In typical conditions, the NOx emissions of natural-gas combustion are less…
An aluminum version of this AODD pump is now available
The HS430S Advanced FIT 1.5-in. high-pressure AODD pump is now available in an aluminum version (photo) that is well-suited for applications that require high head pressures, such as viscous and solid-laden slurries. The aluminum pump comes equipped with the FIT…
All-new industrial thin client for virtualized HMI systems
The BTC01 is a new standalone industrial-box thin client that is ideal for modular virtualized human-machine-interface (HMI) systems. It comes preloaded with this company’s new proprietary operating system, RM Shell 4.0. The BTC01 features enhanced security, a new user interface…
Focus: Pipes, Tubes and Fittings
Antimicrobial tubing reduces the risk of bacterial transfer Clearflo Ag-47 antimicrobial tubing (photo) is now available in an additional seven sizes, expanding its range up to 1-in. inner dia. The NSF-listed tubing protects liquids from harmful bacteria that can result…
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…
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…
