Beck drives electric actuators

01 November, 2010 | Supplied by: Acrodyne Pty Ltd

Beck drives are designed electric actuators that offer consistent, precise control without the performance and maintenance limitations of typical actuators. Unlike pneumatic and conventional electric actuators, the drives can withstand continuous duty modulation without degradation of performance. The electric actuators combine the positioning necessary for optimum control with the reliability to keep the process running.


Boge C series screw compressors C 15 to C 30

29 October, 2010 | Supplied by: Boge Compressors (Australia) Pty Ltd

Boge has recently extended the C series range of screw compressors up to 22 kW. The C 15 to C 30 are claimed to provide a quiet, compact and efficient compressed air solution for the medium-sized compressed air user.


Optimising energy efficiency in hydraulic systems

01 October, 2010 by Dr Dirk Kollmar and Christian Appel, KSB Germany | Supplied by: KSB Australia Pty Ltd

Considering that approximately 20% of global electric energy production is consumed by motor-driven pump sets, they offer a large potential to save energy.


YTC YT-2501 smart valve positioner with remote sensor

17 September, 2010 | Supplied by: Acrodyne Pty Ltd
