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…
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…
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…
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…
Measure process temperatures without a thermowell
The Rosemount X-well Technology (photo) is a surface-sensing temperature-measurement solution that eliminates the need for thermowell process penetration when measuring process temperatures in pipe applications. This device provides an accurate and repeatable internal process temperature measurement, while eliminating possible leak…
A sanitary cone mill for sticky, fragile materials
The Model CM540 Sanitary Cone Mill (photo) delivers gentle, low-energy size reduction while achieving even particle distribution with minimal fines. It is suitable for de-lumping of dried or hygroscopic materials that have agglomerated due to dampness or compaction, for intermediate…
