Advance engineering projects with process simulation tools ChemCad is an intuitive suite of chemical-process-simulation software that gives engineers a variety of capabilities to improve productivity. Version 6.5.7 includes such features as the Thermo Acceleration operating mode, which can help speed…
Fractional distillation systems for continuous and batch processes
This company’s stainless-steel fractional distillation systems (photo) are available for batch or continuous processes, and are designed for critical applications, including high-purity processing, fragrances, foods, specialty chemicals, pharmaceutical intermediates, bio-based materials, solvents and so on. Column diameters from 1 to…
TDL analyzer series is expanded for refining applications
Four additions have been added to this company’s portfolio of tunable-diode-laser (TDL) spectrometers (photo). The GPro 500 has been available for O2, CO and moisture measurement. Now, models for O2 plus temperature, CO%, CO2%, and a combined CO2% plus CO%…
Optimize chemical addition in cloth-media filters
The IntelliPro filtration optimization system (photo) is a PC-based control system for this company’s cloth-media filters that uses realtime data to optimize chemical addition to meet phosphorus-removal objectives. The system features automatic, optimal-dose selection for metal salts, polymer and pH-adjusting…
Temperature measurement
HART-compatible transmitter eases temperature monitoring Industrial sensors monitor temperature or pressure abnormalities by comparing the process conditions with pre-programmed setpoints in a PLC or DCS controller. The HART-compatible One Series 1XTXSW transmitter line (photo) is said to be the first…
New compact gear pumps fit into tight spaces
The UP2 family of self-priming, compact electric gear pumps (photo) are available in 12- and 24-V d.c. versions and with flowrates up to 2.6 gal/min for water (52.9 gal/h for oil). The UP2 Series is designed for applications with an…
These flowmeters are equipped with high-temperature sensors
For flowmeters, sensors limit the maximum operating temperature while the flow volume and direction of flow are registered by means of spindle rotation. In addition to the available standard model for temperatures of up to 125°C, the economically priced OMP…
Use this probe for level detection with heavy materials
This company’s stainless-steel HD probe (photo) can be attached to either the Procap I or Procap II capacitance probes. This rugged probe comes in a standard 8-in. length and features a shield that guards against false readings from material buildup…
