With more than 80 years of evolution since its introduction, switch technology has changed significantly enough that some of the common beliefs about switches are no longer true. Click on the button below to read about the seven common myths surrounding switches.

The basic liquid sizing equation tells us that the liquid flow rate through a control valve is proportional to the square root of pressure drop.

Take the complexity out of design with Mott's 3 easy steps to make your vision become reality while keeping it feasible and fast.

If you are looking for a valve controller that can be used on most on/off automated valves then look no further. StoneL's new Discrete Valve Controller provides unmatched reliability, state-of-the-art monitoring and robust pneumatic control in hazardous and general process applications.

The greatest control challenges we see often surround fugitive emissions and the challenges encountered in this area are directly related to the reliability of existing equipment, as well as the use of outdated valve technologies and correct installation procedures to ensure that they are remaining compliant with EPA standards.

The Neles™ ValvGuard™ is a top-class intelligent safety solenoid with partial stroke testing features for emergency shutdown and venting valves. Based on the automatic PST and other diagnostics data, VG9000 increases safety, and plant safety targets can be reached more economically than with other solutions.

Neldisc® series L6 triple eccentric disc valve operates both in control and shut-off applications, with close to equal percentage characteristics and superior tightness.

WIKA's model S-20 pressure transmitter is the ideal solution for customers with demanding performance requirements in many industrial applications.

Chromalox is pleased to announce that they now offer Wireless Temperature Sensing for Heat Trace applications in both ordinary and hazardous areas. This new capability provides several benefits including expanded application flexibility, improved process safety, and measured installation cost savings while maintaining system integrity.

WIKA's intrinsically safe submersible pressure transmitter model IL-10 has been designed for the highest requirements of level measurement. Owing to their high accuracy, reliability, and their excellent media resistance, it is the ideal solution for almost all level measurements in hazardous areas.

Varnish formation is a common problem in the lube and hydraulic systems of today's turbomachinery. The severity of the varnish formation can be aggravated by oil chemistry, hot spots in the lube oil system, and static discharge. Hilco's ionic exchange technology has proven to be an effective method in reducing varnish potential in many applications.

Static discharge is a common problem in the lubricating oil systems of today's turbo-machinery. Hilco PH-CGJ style filter elements incorporate conductive fibers which are co-pleated in between two layers of high-performance micro glass filter media. As a result, the Hilco anti-static filter element dissipates static charge build-up before discharge can occur.

Discover convenient remote access of your automated valves when you install the Axiom AMI with AS-Interface featuring Bluetooth® technology from StoneL.

The Jamesbury high-performance valve is a heartier concept than the rubber-lined version. The term 'high performance' when considering the butterfly valve means the valve will take full ANSI pressure ratings, shuts off 'bubble tight', has higher temperature ratings, and, through the use of design and materials, has a much higher cycle life (extending into the millions of cycles without failure or leakage).

The Fulflo® HF Depthflo™ microglass pleated filter cartridges are offered in 6" diameter x 80" lengths. The high surface area filter media is supported with a tin-plated steel core and outer cage utilizing an external O-ring seal with a closed cap.

The explosionproof Hawkeye, with its stainless steel enclosure, is designed for service in harsh process environments. It features a solid state proximity sensor which is encased in a shock absorbent urethane potting material.

Determining problems and errors in the field just got easier with the new WIKA MH-3 pressure transmitter for mobile working machines. WIKA Instrument, LP captures the latest pressure sensor technology with the addition of the diagnostic function in the new MH-3 pressure transmitter.

Securing the go ahead for a system upgrade can be difficult in a competitive work environment, where every cost must be accounted for and validated. Getting your project noticed and approved when it's lost among a sea of competing projects—each one making a claim on finite resources—can seem an impossible task.

When discussing fluid power, pressure is the basis for producing any kind of work.  Work cannot be achieved without pressure. To understand the finer points of fluid power, one must first understand the concept of pressure
