The new Series PI (photo) is a variable-area flowmeter that utilizes a spring-loaded piston. The fluid flow in the application causes this piston to move along the axis of a precision-tapered shaft, creating a variable orifice in direct proportion to…
The IS540.1 (photo) is said to be the world’s first 5G smartphone for ATEX and IECEx zone 1/21. The intrinsically safe mobile device, which was also developed for use in 5G campus networks, offers extensive deployment scenarios ranging from predictive…
From headsets to gloves to fabric sensors, technologies that can be worn on the body are providing many new benefits for plant workers Apace with innovations in all “smart” technologies, wearable devices for industrial personnel are rapidly evolving to incorporate…
When searching for catalysts for the energy transition, materials consisting of at least five elements — so-called high-entropy alloys (HEAs) — are considered highly promising. But to find the right combination of elements and composition ratios needed for the best…
The new KFU8-SR-EX* (photo) is a universal powered switch amplifier that can be used in intrinsically safe applications and functional safety installations up to safety integrity level (SIL)2. The new KFU8 device can be supplied with 19 to 30 V…
This company’s new batch-weighing system (photo) is designed for accurate batching direct to blenders or mixers. The station features a P100 batch-weigh receiver combined with a KT20 loss-in-weight twin-screw feeder, mounted on a collection hopper. The batch-weigh receiver combines a…
This company is expanding its portfolio of light-emitting diode (LED) lights with the robust LED indicators of the K100 series (photo). The 100-mm beacons — developed by partner company Banner Engineering — are available in two configurations. The Pro Daylight…
Fractional crystallization is a stage-wise separation technique that relies upon the liquid-solid phase change and enables the purification of multi-component mixtures, as long as none of the constituents can act as a solvent to the others. Thanks to the level…
The Centri-Sifter M1 (photo) is a centrifugal sifter specially designed to help address the high costs associated with maintenance and recruiting, training and retaining skilled labor. The Centri-Sifter M1 sifts, scalps, de-agglomerates and dewaters granular materials ranging from dry bulk…
The Rosemount 3408 level transmitter (photo) is a non-contacting radar device designed to optimize ease-of-use, leading to increased safety and enhanced plant performance. While the benefits of radar level measurement are widely acknowledged, the company says radars are still sometimes…
