Operating in environments with temperatures of up to 60 °C
Space saving construction with reduced vibration
Non-contact temperature measurement can be used Non-contact temperature measurement can be used Non-contact temperature measurement can be used in rough industrial environments
Siemens is expanding its Ruggedcom portfolio with a new Ethernet 19 inch rack switch with Power-over-Ethernet support. Its high port density with up to 24 Power-over-Ethernet ports helps significantly reduce capital expenses by reducing the number of network devices needed. The RST2228P offers Power-over-Ethernet, precision timing and network communication on a single network, helping to reduce maintenance costs related to timing or power solutions that require dedicated wiring. The CLP interface port allows for easy replacement of devices in the field using the Ruggedcom CLP removable media to automatically apply the failed device’s configuration to...

Equipped with cutting-edge technology and a smartphone-like touchscreen for an increased measurement reliability
Thanks to the expanded functionality of ComoNeo's new Version 2.1.0, it's possible to monitor as many as four components with different mold technologies
Offers maximum homogenisation and continuous pressure-stable, smooth and low-pulsation conveyance of biosubstrates. Ideal feeding and mixing is therefore ensured
Kistler has further enhanced its high-performance sensors in the KiTorq series, taking the transmission rate to 4 kHz and making the evaluation unit (stator) of this modular series four times as fast with Profinet or EtherCat interface
For use in offshore, marine and navy ventilation system
Meeting the needs of high temperatures and viscosity handling is a real challenge. ONIXline Rotary Lobe Pump from Börger can handle demanding high pressures up to 16 bar and has no wearing parts
Driven by safety considerations the Nuclear Industry has a desire for higher and higher resolution, remote viewing of its operational facilities. For this reason, the uptake of CMOS colour sensors in place of traditional monochrome cameras is increasing
With the new range of vacuum cleaner from Kärcher, the particles are vacuumed directly where they are generated and therefore cannot spread to the production environment
Among the special features of these positive displacement blowers, there are the new compact, space-saving design and up to 5% energy saving by means of an optimised intake filter silencer
Featuring three separate compression stations for effervescent products, the technology is particularly ideal for pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals
Thanks to the magnetic coupling, there is no physical connection between the tank’s interior and exterior. The encapsulated sensor provides permanent monitoring, regulation and data collection of the mixing process
The EZ-2 is designed to efficiently concentrate or completely dry samples and help simplify and accelerate the detection and quantitation of algal toxins in surface water
Vibrations and pulsations in reciprocating compressors cause very often shutdown, failures and disruption of service. This is why controlling and assessing vibration problems at an early stage is pivotal
The water industry provides one of our most vital resources right to our doorstep, so minimum performance standards must be guaranteed. Raising efficiency becomes therefore the top priority to reduce energy costs
Provide a 7 – 17 mm stroke, with a 700 bar max operating pressure, and are designed to withstand up to 4% side load at full lifting capacity
Easy selection, using specific parameters, of the best flowmeter and instrumentation for customer's application is facilitated thanks to a new series of flowmeter selection charts
