GEMÜ has developed a new motorized open/close actuator for globe and diaphragm valves. The 24 V DC actuator is an advanced alternative to current designs and also to solenoid valves.
The UK-based Rotork Midland Ltd, (to be renamed Midland Flow Ltd) and the Italian Rotork Instruments S.r.l. (to be renamed M&M Instruments S.r.l.) are now part of Dacke Industri to enhance the market position and open new opportunities in both the UK and Italy.
Intrinsically safe copper-based Ethernet to ATEX Zone 1
Optimised control solutions for single- and double-acting actuators on rotary and linear valves
Smarter Motion. Stronger Performance
Field tests with end-users in the process industry show positive results in test installations
Upgrading pneumatic control valves with digital capabilities can enhance process quality and efficiency. Though a full digital control system redesign might be prohibitive, integrating digital positioners and process controllers can offer many of the same benefits without requiring a complete overhaul. Author: Kieran Bennett, Industry Manager, Food & Beverage at Bürkert.
As part of a retrofit at Stockholm’s largest combined heat and power plant, Kraftvärmeverk 1, 241 AUMA electric actuators have been installed . The modern actuators with Profinet communications now ensure the smooth generation of electricity and heat from renewable fuels.
The need for accurate flow measurement in extreme operating conditions and harsh industrial environments, such as those found in hydraulic system applications and the oil and gas industry, is met by Titan Enterprises' high pressure oval gear fluid flow meters.
Innovative concept with particularly high volumetric flow rates that are virtually identical in all directions
Reduction of capital and operating costs in offshore systems above and below water
Methane emission regulations and reduction targets such as “Fit for 55” transform the technology used for pipeline shutdown
Adjustable speed options for modulating and part-turn actuators
Veolia Water Technologies has built an ultra-modern plant to produce drinking water in Ostend, Belgium. In a multi-stage filtration process, the water supplier is now producing drinking water of excellent quality – far above the statutory requirements. At critical points of the process – during reverse osmosis, filtration with activated carbon and remineralisation of the water – sliding gate valves made by Schubert & Salzer Control Systems are responsible for regulating pressure and flow rate.
Robust quarter-turn actuators for safety-related duties
Up to five control elements in different enclosure versions
For harsh and demanding environments in the operational temperature range of -30 °C to +70 °C
Highly robust solution for valve position feedback
Expanded valve selection offers more alternatives for plant engineers
Every day, sensors in production plants collect huge amounts of data. However, companies seldom realise how valuable the correct evaluation of large amounts of data is. This creates data graves whose potential remains undiscovered. The Heubach Group had a similar experience. However, with Festo AX artificial intelligence, it was proven that benefits for maintenance, engineering and productivity can be achieved from central PID data.
Digital platform for intelligent valve management
Support for control processes in modern plant automation
For optimization of processes for many applications across industries
Users in process automation have the most to gain from insight through data from sensors and actuators. This is where the advanced physical layer for Ethernet, short Ethernet-APL comes in, the data highway to the field of process plants. Many questions must be answered when deploying Ethernet-APL for the first time. This article discusses topologies for Ethernet-APL that can be realized with currently available infrastructure components.
Easy installation for use with pneumatic linear valves
Proven electric actuation technology is helping to boost green energy in Taiwan
Part-turn intelligent electric actuators have been installed in several gas pressure reducing stations in Belgium to provide reliable flow control without the release of undesirable greenhouse gas emissions.
IO-Link is enjoying increasing popularity, with demand for the communications standard growing rapidly, especially in the food & beverage industry. The fieldbus-independent technology for point-to-point communication is easy to use and provides a cost-effective way to digitalize industrial plants.
