Digital valve controller wins China's 'best product' award
21 January, 2009Emerson Process Management’s Fisher Fieldvue DVC2000 digital valve controller was named Best Product of the Year 2008 by readers of Control Engineering China Magazine, beating 101 products from 62 countries for the prize.
Scientists create self-powered fluid sensors
04 November, 2008Fraunhofer researchers have created a fluidic energy transducer that creates electricity from fluid motion in the surrounding air or water, enabling the development of self-powered sensors for air or fluid systems.
One-stop DP flowmeter solution
01 November, 2008Although differential pressure (DP) flowmeters are based on a relatively inexpensive and mature technology, selecting and installing these devices is not simple and requires a reasonable level of engineering skill.
Printing liquid totaliser
01 November, 2008The ITP is an intelligent printing totaliser intended primarily for liquid flow measurement.
Bulk solid flow measurement
01 November, 2008SolidFlow can be used to measure lean phase mass flow of bulk solids up to 20 t/h, either in free fall or pneumatically conveyed. It uses a microwave technique.
Schmidt flow sensor
05 October, 2008The Schmidt flow sensor SS 20.260 offers a measuring range of 0-50 m/s and an operating temperature range of up to 120°C. The temperature can be measured with an additional linear output, and a separate temperature sensor is not required. The unit has a robust construction to protect it against impact.
Hygienic flowmeters
05 October, 2008The HygienicMaster range of flowmeters is targeted primarily at the food and beverage, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. The range provides accurate measurement in hygienic applications ranging from water through to fluids with extreme viscosities, high solid concentrations or low conductivity.
Magnetic inductive flowmeter
05 October, 2008The DMI series flowmeter operates on the magneto-inductive principle. With no protrusions into the pipe, conductive liquids and slurries can be measured with virtually no system pressure loss. The DMI is available with a PEEK or PVDF flow tube and Hastelloy C measuring electrodes are standard.
Air and gas flowmeters
05 October, 2008The PFM range of flowmeters is for use with air and a variety of gases. With flow measurement of air, liquids, even harsh acids and alkalis, the SMC range of flow measurement equipment can provide in situ displays, remote indicators, analog transmission and digital switching. Some models are equipped with flow adjustment to permit the required flowrate to be preset.
Flow meter
05 October, 2008Part of ABB’s FlowMaster family, ProcessMaster incorporates features providing users enhanced performance with reduced complexity. Available in sizes 3 to 2000 mm, the ProcessMaster range offers a wide choice of liner and electrode options, enabling it to meet the needs of demanding applications.
Flow sensor for solids
05 October, 2008FlowJam is a non-contact flow/no flow sensor for solids. It uses microwave technology to give reliable results under harsh conditions of dust and sunlight. It is a suitable device for detecting solid flows in hoppers, conveyors, screw conveyors, air slides, etc.
Variable area flowmeters
05 October, 2008Swagelok variable area flowmeters (VAFs) are used to measure liquid and gas flow rates by means of a tapered tube and float and can provide highly accurate measurement with individually calibrated scales and a 10:1 turndown ratio.
Who adds value?
12 September, 2008 by John ImmelmanBuilding a greenfield process plant today inevitably throws up a host of challenges, but successful greenfield projects take advantage of a potent ingredient in the engineering chain: added value.
