Burkert Fluid Control Systems sanitary mag flowmeter
01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Burkert Fluid Control Systems
Dedicated to process applications that do not require local push-button programming or display, the blind Type 8056 sanitary mag flowmeter delivers high accuracy over a wide flow velocity range. The Type 8056 is engineered for fast filling applications with short reaction time, high-speed sampling (short sampling/measurement time) and high-speed frequency output, making it suitable for filling systems.
Integrated pressure sensor
01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Festo Pty Ltd
A pressure sensor is now integrated into the Festo MPA valve terminal, allowing pressures to be monitored directly over the fieldbus system. This high level of integration is a low-cost solution as it saves considerable time and money otherwise spent on a more complex installation.
Inline water quality monitoring in distribution pipelines
01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Westwater Enterprises
The Intellisonde multi-parameter monitoring system is a measuring device designed for direct insertion into potable water pipeline distribution networks, providing benefits including: continuous water quality monitoring within the distribution system; integration into a water utility data collection system such as SCADA; providing real-time and historical data — both alphanumeric and graphical; assistance with compliance and regulatory requirements; analysis of the distribution network; and minimising risk of contamination posed by bursts and repairs.
Oil-in-water measurement
01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Environmental & Process Technologies
Enviro-Flu-HC is a new generation of highly sensitive submersible sensors for oil-in-water measurement. The UV fluorescence principle used for detection is claimed to be more sensitive than other existing detection principles, such as infrared scattering.
Compact orifice DP flowmeters
01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: ABB Australia Pty Ltd
The OriMaster compact orifice DP flowmeter is a one-piece flowmeter that comes fully factory configured and pressure tested, solving many of the problems associated with sizing, selection, installation and operation of conventional orifice plate installations.
Amalgamated Instrument differential pressure transmitter
01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Amalgamated Instrument Co
The WS-TPDPT7 transmitters are available in three models with selectable ranges. The high accuracy model measures ranges from 0-25 Pa to 0-100 Pa in four selectable ranges, the standard model measures ranges from 0-50 Pa to 0-2500 Pa in eight selectable ranges and the high-pressure model measures ranges from 0-5000 Pa to 0-10000 Pa in six selectable ranges.
Panel mount rate and total display
01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Amalgamated Instrument Co
The PM6-TR is a ratemeter/totaliser and supersedes both the PM6-FX and PM6-FC models. This single 1/8 DIN panel meter offers the ability to monitor and indicate rate and count (or total) from a wide variety of pulse output sensors. The display can be toggled between rate and total using a remote input.
BCM load cells
01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Bestech Australia Pty Ltd
The model 3417/3497 single-ended shear beam load cells from BCM Sensors are low-profile, high-precision load cells based on the shear-beam working principle. These load cells can find applications in hopper scales and platform scales, or can be used to measure beam bending loads.
Mimicking nature for better flow sensors
30 March, 2009
Researchers are using the motion-sensing hairs on a blind cavefish as a blueprint for advanced flow sensors.
Interface level detection — what to consider
19 March, 2009 | Supplied by: Endress+Hauser Australia Pty Ltd
Compared to standard level measurements in liquids, the detection and measurement of interfaces has its own particular challenges, leaving many interface applications without reliable level measurement. Most popular today are the electronic or non-mechanical solutions with no moving mechanical parts which offer much higher long-term stability and low-maintenance operation.
Passive sonar flowmeter technology — operating principles
18 March, 2009 | Supplied by: KROHNE Australia Pty Ltd
Flow measurements in the mineral processing and mining industry suffer from the limitations placed by previously available flowmeters including the commonly used instruments such as ultrasonic meters, magmeters, turbine meters, orifice plate meters, vortex meters, Coriolis meters and Venturi meters. The desire or requirement to make a non-contact measurement that is accurate and robust, and can be performed on practically any type of fluid within practically any type of pipe, has driven the creation of a new class of flowmeters.
Pressure controllers and gauges
15 March, 2009 | Supplied by: CMC Technologies Pty Ltd
The Series A3 digital differential pressure controller is a microprocessor-based pressure controller for positive, negative and differential pressure as well as velocity and flow. The Series A3 differential pressure controller includes two 8A SPDT relays and an associated software package that allows full configuration of variables such as set points, dead band, engineering units and flow coefficients. The programming is done from a user-friendly menu on the LCD or uploaded using an Opti Link programming key. The LCD also displays the exact set points or other user-defined variables during normal operation. The menu structure can be customised by moving variables to different menu levels to accommodate many applications.
Silo level measurement
15 March, 2009 | Supplied by: Endress+Hauser Australia Pty Ltd
The Silopilot FMM20 is an electromechanical level measuring device featuring an uncomplicated but rugged construction that is unaffected by silo geometry, dust, temperature, low dielectric values and static electricity. The simple-to-operate Silopilot FMM20 is suitable for use in bunkers and silos holding light bulk solids such as wheat, plastic granules and powder.
Data acquisition system
15 March, 2009 | Supplied by: ETMC Technologies
Heim Systems has developed a flexible, compact distributed data acquisition system, DATaRec 4, that consists of interface modules that can be positioned up to 10 m from each other, or mechanically linked to make a compact acquisition unit.
