DVZ Series vortex flowmeters
08 July, 2008 | Kobold Instruments Pty Ltd
The DVZ Series flowmeters are compact and inexpensive and can be utilised in all applications for low-viscosity fluids. Since the units operate without any mechanical moving parts, they are practically maintenance free and have distinct advantages compared with units based on the float or rotor principle.
Output filter for motor drives
08 July, 2008 | Westek Electronics Pty Ltd
The Schaffner Model 510 output filters reduce voltage slew rate (dV/dt) from inverter drives for variable-speed motors. High-voltage slew rates can cause overstressing of long motor drive cables and cause insulation breakdowns in motor windings.
Experion process knowledge system
08 July, 2008 | Honeywell Building Solutions
Honeywell has released an enhanced version of its Experion process knowledge system that allows plant operators to carefully coordinate process control, safety shutdown and fire and gas mitigation steps.
Multi-gas monitoring system
08 July, 2008 | Thermo Fisher Scientific
Thermo Fisher Scientific has announced the Model 70 FTIR Multi-Gas CEMS, a single analyser, continuous monitoring system capable of measuring up to 10 gases or more for almost any incineration or co-incineration application. The real-time integrated stack gas monitoring system possesses a high level of sensitivity, specificity and dynamic range, with a dynamically aligned interferometer that provides long- and short-term stability.
Solid-state relay
08 July, 2008 | Rockwell Automation Australia
Rockwell Automation has expanded its range of Allen-Bradley 700SH solid-state relays with the addition of increased load capacities up to 100 A and 660 V. This extends the applicability of the 700SH series for a wider range of precision-controlled, high switching frequency applications, such as temperature control in packaging, food processing, plastics and HVAC industries.
Hirschmann ethernet switches
08 July, 2008 | Daanet Pty Ltd
Hirschmann has released two managed industrial ethernet switches - a Fast (model RSR20) and a Gigabit Ethernet version (RSR30). Featuring a metal case and redundant power supplies (DC/DC or AC/DC mix), they are designed to provide extremely high EMI resistance.
Crystal Engineering XP2i-DP differential digital test gauge
08 July, 2008 | Floyd Instruments Pty Ltd
Crystal Engineering has introduced the XP2i-DP differential digital test gauge which is also capable of data logging. The unit is rugged, intrinsically safe, ATEX certified and has an accuracy of ±0.1% of reading between 20-100% and ±0.02% of full scale between 0-20%.
Chlorine controller
08 July, 2008 | Convergent Water Controls Pty Ltd
Unlike ORP control, using free or total chlorine control can give precise readings of the actual hypochlorous acid or free (residual) chlorine content of the water being treated. Hypochlorous acid content fluctuates with changes in pH and regular ORP readings can give false impressions of the actual ‘effective kill’ of the chemicals being used.
Proficy Tracker 7.5 production tracking software
08 July, 2008 | GE Intelligent Platforms Asia Pacific Pte Ltd
GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms has released a new version of its Proficy Tracker software that helps companies realise lean initiatives by managing the execution of orders and the related flow of materials.
Quadraplex pump controller
08 July, 2008 | Dwyer Omega (Aust) Pty Ltd
The series QPC is used where four pumps are required to alternate to provide equal run time on each. Alternating loads allows for equal wear on all pumps, lengthening their operation life. The series QPC has five inputs allowing the four outputs to operate properly even if one of the inputs fails to open or close. Four LED indicators show the load that is energised by the SPST output contacts.
Orbisint CPS11D and Orbipore CPS91D pH electrodes
08 July, 2008 | Endress+Hauser Australia Pty Ltd
The Orbisint CPS11D and the Orbipore CPS91D pH electrodes combine the advantage of having a contaminant-resistant reference, with fast response time and high reproducibility.
Chemical motor pump
08 July, 2008 | Australian Pump Industries Pty Ltd
The Aussie Pacer S2 is a high-performance 50 mm motor pump designed specifically for chemical handling in beverage and food production.
Gladiator vibration level switch
08 July, 2008 | Hawk Measurement Systems Pty Ltd
The level sensing arrangement used in the Gladiator vibration smart switch is suitable for a wide range of liquids and solids, including slurries and pelletised materials.
Siemens SCADA software
08 July, 2008 | Siemens Ltd
Siemens has expanded the functionality of its SCADA system SIMATIC WinCC with version 7.0. The scalable SCADA system now offers compatibility with Windows Vista, easy language switching, high-performance analysis functions and an integrated MS SQL Server archive historian database as standard.
Brushless DC motors
08 July, 2008 | M Rutty & Co Pty Ltd
The GR 22, G 30.1 and G 30.0 motors are now available in versions with neodymium magnets. Compared with the basic version of the motors with ferrite magnets, they offer up to 30% higher starting torque. The speed characteristic of these motors under load is marked by a flatter characteristic curve and thus smaller variations in speed.
