Vacuum jets
21 July, 2009 | Griffiths Components Pty Ltd
Vacuum jets are simple but effective devices which allow the movement of any fumes, dusts, powders, residues, liquids or grains without the use of pumps or electricity. They run silently, without heat and, since they have no moving parts, are free of maintenance.
Pneumatic grommet
21 July, 2009 | Compressed Air Australia Pty Ltd
Pipetite’s pneumatic grommet is a sealing technology suitable for use on air line penetrations through sheet steel. It can seal a connection while allowing for significant movement of the tube. Installation is simple and a large range of sizes is available.
Compressor controls
21 July, 2009 | Atlas Copco Compressors Australia
Atlas Copco has introduced the next generation in compressor controls to increase efficiency across its oil-injected screw compressors range 11-90 kW GA/GA+/GA VSD. The fifth generation of the Elektronikon Graphic controller (standard installed on the GA+/GA VSD) has been launched and the Energy Saving (ES) System ES6i has been expanded to control up to six variable speed drive or fixed speed compressors simultaneously. In addition, an online visualisation enables remote monitoring, allowing for anticipation of operating and maintenance needs.
Discrete-input transmitters
21 July, 2009 | Honeywell Process Solutions
Honeywell has added two discrete-input transmitters to its family of XYR 6000 wireless devices. The STXW 500 and the STTW 401 transmitters can convert any measurement device with a contact-closure switch input into a wireless input, enabling manufacturers to decrease costs and improve efficiency by wirelessly monitoring more processes at their plants. The transmitters are suitable for applications such as wirelessly monitoring level switches, pump status and system alarms.
Mining pump
21 July, 2009 | Sykes Australia Ltd
The HH160i mining pump is the latest addition to the HIMAX range of durable and reliable auto prime pumps. The pump provides a maximum shut head of 140 m and a maximum flow rate of 188 L/s. When operating at best efficiency point (BEP) the pump produces 95 m of head at 137 L/s flow rate.
Compressed air couplings
21 July, 2009 | Nitto Kohki Australia Pty Ltd
The Safety Full Blow Cupla range of compressed air couplings provides a safety system for compressed air outlets in ¼, 3/8 and ½" systems.
Adjustable vacuum generator
21 July, 2009 | Compressed Air Australia Pty Ltd
Exair’s Adjustable E-Vac is a series of low-cost, compressed air powered vacuum generators where the vacuum and flow rates can be easily adjusted to suit the application requirements. The vacuum pumps are suitable for a wide variety of pick-and-place, box opening, clamping, lifting, chucking and surface mounting applications. They are maintenance free and have no moving parts to wear out.
