Spectroscopy comes out of the lab
17 February, 2011 by Glenn JohnsonDevelopments in technologies for building spectroscopes and spectrometers have advanced in leaps and bounds since the first commercial infrared spectroscope was developed in the 1940s and the first FT-IR spectrometer came on the market in 1969. Today, spectrometry is moving out of the lab and into the field and the process plant.
Bronkhorst High-Tech Select series digital mass flow meters
17 September, 2010 byBronkhorst High-Tech’s Select series of digital mass flow meters and controllers for gases are designed to offer greater flexibility for user selection of both flow ranges and gas types. As a result of their ‘multi-fluid multi-range’ feature, in combination with a high rangeability (up to 187.5:1), equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are able to reduce the variety of spare instruments they keep in stock and thus reduce the cost of ownership. Users of MFCs in pilot plants or laboratories can rescale their instruments on site, saving time and money for dismounting and recalibration.
Continuous emission monitoring
14 July, 2010The requirement for continuous emission monitors has changed significantly over the last 10 years. This has been brought about by the increase in use of flue gas treatment systems, reducing the levels of pollutant to be monitored, and environmental agencies worldwide requiring smaller processes to be monitored.

13 November, 2009 byThe Crius 3200 dissolved oxygen monitor offers an automatic in-situ calibration check as an option, making it able to save customers money by checking its calibration at user-defined time intervals.
WIKA air2guide series of measuring instruments
13 November, 2009 byWIKA has introduced the air2guide series of measuring instruments for mandatory filter and fan monitoring in ventilation and air conditioning (VAC) including the air2guideP mechanical differential pressure gauge, the air2guideP+E mechanical differential pressure gauge with analog display and analog output signal, and the air2guideF volume flow gauge.
Gas mass flowmeter
10 November, 2009 byThe GF90 gas mass flow meter from Fluid Components International is designed for gas measurement applications, such as chlorinated water disinfection systems. As a solid state meter, the GF90 is designed to measure extremely low flow rates, and it is constructed of materials that make it impervious to highly corrosive, wet chlorine gas. Materials of construction for wetted parts include Hastelloy C as an option.
In-situ self-verifying dissolved oxygen meter
02 November, 2009Represented in Australia by Bintech Products, the UK-based instrumentation company Pi has claimed to have launched the world’s first in-situ self-checking dissolved oxygen meter.
