The Bolz conical vacuum mixer-dryer (photo) has been specifically engineered to meet the strictest requirements for vacuum processes by combining multiple processing steps into a single fully enclosed processing system that delivers safer operations by utilizing fixed permanent connections for…
Easy Vis (photo) is a new instrument that analyzes liquid, translucent samples for their optical spectrum, color and water parameters. Combining these critical measuring tasks into one device, Easy Vis takes over the measuring tasks of up to three instruments:…
By allowing maintenance professionals to visualize vibration on entire pump systems, video vibration analysis and motion magnification can help to rapidly diagnose vibration issues Video vibration analysis, and motion magnification in particular, is democratizing complex system-level vibration testing by making…
FLIR One Edge Pro (photo) is said to be the first truly wireless thermal-visible camera for mobile devices. Unlike previous models, the reimagined FLIR One Edge Pro doesn’t need to be physically connected to its companion mobile device, nor does…
This company’s Wright Drive 2.0 socket design is said to distribute contact stress more effectively than other wrench systems. The Wright Drive 2.0 12-point design has up to 10 times more tool-to-fastener contact area than conventional 12-point wrenches. The design…
At brownfield operating sites, energy-efficiency gains can be realized by modernizing power-generation equipment. Ideally, such projects can take place without fully shutting off power or halting plant operations Over the last two years, virtually every major chemical producer across the…
The enhanced Rosemount 3051 pressure transmitter (photo) features user interfaces that have been redesigned to provide a simplified, task-based menu structure with common navigation across host and configuration tools for a faster, more intuitive user experience. The new, high-contrast, backlit…
Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) is a separation technique that exploits differences in the relative solubility of compounds of interest (the solute) in two immiscible liquids — most often an aqueous phase and an organic solvent. This one-page reference reviews basic information…
Flow analysis can aid in simultaneously sizing pumps and associated piping systems. The concurrent sizing can reduce wasted energy and improve pump reliability In the chemical process industries (CPI), a variety of incredible process-simulation tools are available to provide greater…
A new level detector for multiphase applications Multiphase level measurements exist throughout chemical process industries (CPI). They are especially significant in the oil-and-gas and petrochemical sectors due to the value derived from effectively separating water and hydrocarbons. While level instrumentation…
