The RNT line of bag-dump stations (photo) features an integrated dust-collection system as an option. Devised to prevent nuisance dust exposure in the work environment, the dust-control equipment sets a vacuum pump and filter system atop the bag-dump station to…
The Big-Bag Unloader (BBU; photo) features a new, dust-free docking station. Included as standard equipment on the bulk-bag unloader, the new docking station features a proprietary design with integrated inner ring, outlet spout and cover that establish a sealed connection…
The new Free Rotating Retractor (photo) is a high-efficiency retractable cleaning device that quickly and effectively removes residues from the interior surfaces of hard-to-clean vessels. This retractable cleaning-in-place (CIP) device remains sealed off from the product area during production, flush…
The patented technology to measure buildup can be used to optimize cleaning cycles and avoid unplanned shutdowns To keep operations at peak efficiency, process systems must be kept as clean as possible. However, some of the normal byproducts of operating…
Bio-Process Oils (photo) is a new family of blended, highly-refined biosynthetic base oils that maintain flexibility over a wider temperature range than petroleum-based products, making them suitable for use in many types of adhesives and sealants. Their extremely low volatility…
Optimizing the additive manufacturing of parts like actuators, regulators and valves will result in faster delivery, lower costs and improved performance for these crucial equipment components Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies are benefiting the chemical process industries (CPI) in two main…
The iTrans 2 fixed gas detector (photo) provides one or two points of detection from a single head for maximum flexibility, with both readings shown on the standard-issue LED and display. Gas sensors are mountable directly to the transmitter, or…
In low-flow applications, Coriolis mass-flow controllers can be susceptible to clogging due to their small orifice. Filtration can solve most common clogging issues. Here are tips for filtration and clog prevention Advanced material and catalyst research, as well as critical…
A new industry standard relating to the safe operation of electrical equipment can help manufacturers transition from an irregular maintenance schedule to a safer, more prescriptive regimen We used to need to change our motor oil every 3,000 miles. The…
Oxides of nitrogen (NOx) are a family of highly reactive gases that can be produced naturally, but largely result from fuel combustion (industrial combustion and automobile engines). In the environment, they are pollutants that react with volatile organic compounds in…
