The new generation of high-efficiency IE5+ synchronous motors (photo) combine the benefits of this company’s modular system of gear units, motors and variable frequency drives (VFDs) with the possibility of reducing system variants through constant torque over a wide speed…
This company has launched a new specialized thermistor variant aimed at mid-range temperature-sensing tasks for tight-tolerance instrumentation in non-condensing moisture environments. The ENTC-EI-10k9777-02 thermistor (photo) is based on a Stycast epoxy-encapsulated core with Kynar insulation for maximum durability across a…
Digital transformation in the chemical process industries demands open architecture, enterprise-wide interoperability and a focus on sustainability. Progress discussed here is moving the industry in that direction Many companies in the chemical process industries (CPI) are currently pursuing digital transformations…
The MT100 Series multipoint mass flowmeter (photo) provides air-gas flow measurements to help optimize boiler performance and reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse-gas emissions. These devices feature compact thermal-dispersion flow-sensor technology. They accurately monitor and report the flowrate or the totalized…
This company has extended its single-use product line of quaternary (four-piston) diaphragm pumps with the introduction of the next-generation QF5kSU (photo). Incorporating a patented valve-plate design that improves drainability and venting, the QF5kSU reduces the required minimum flowrate needed to…
Potential maintenance and repair cost savings are significant when employing vapor corrosion inhibitors either as a standalone mitigation technique, or as a complement to conventional cathodic protection methods, in aboveground storage tanks Mitigation of external corrosion on the bottoms of…
In a typical bulk-solids pneumatic-conveying system, an air mover is used to generate the necessary air flowrate and pressure required to transport a solid material through a pipeline at a given rate. This one-page reference discusses the operating mechanisms and…
While it may be easy to fixate on the costs and efforts associated with implementing ESG programs, taking a closer look at ESG can reveal many untapped advantages Environmental, social and governance (ESG) programs are intended to encourage companies to…
With the vipro-PUMP series (photo), this company is launching a totally new generation of dispensers. A new design, optimized dosing components and modular construction provide numerous opportunities for adapting the dosing equipment even more effectively to the relevant application. The…
While thermowells have become well-established, they have potential drawbacks that can affect their performance. The benefits of alternative non-invasive temperature sensing is presented here Temperature is one of the most important parameters for industrial processes, providing a key indicator of…
