Des-Case rolls out a new and improved, patent-pending breather construction. More desiccant and increased airflow without increasing the external dimensions of the breather.

In an effort to better serve our refining customers, Valin has created a new knowledge center group of highly technical people familiar with the needs of refineries.

Parker's Electromechanical & Drives Division is pleased to announce the release of the ACR7000 series controllers. The new ACR7000 series combines performance, value, and scalability that exceeds OEM expectations.

Patlite LR6 Series Signal Tower Lights are the next generation signal tower series featuring ultra-bright LEDs, a modular design, and a wide-selection of options to take on the most challenging applications.

Incorporating stainless steel sensor technology into ECHOLINE^®'s LDP Series product family results in a low-pressure monitor capable of operating with corrosive media while monitoring low pressures.

Parker Velcon CDF-X™ elements are currently going through robustness testing at two major airports in the U.S. This is part of the testing program to determine if the elements will be safe for into-plane field evaluation. Learn more.

There is no "one size fits all" drive train linear actuator technology for every application. In reality, the selection of different types of linear motion systems depends entirely on what is most critical to a specific application.

The iPolymer Sub-miniature Solenoid Valves, offered in 2-Way NC, 2-Way NO, and 3-Way designs, perform under extreme conditions and are ideally suited for semiconductor, pharmaceutical, bio-medical, and chemical process applications.

Rotork Fairchild's all new PAX1 series Linear Actuator can be used alone or it can be paired with a variety of Fairchild time proven pressure regulators enabling remote control of the pneumatic pressure.

Oriental Motor's AlphaStep closed-loop control systems perform accurate positioning operations with ease. The AlphaStep features a unique control system combining the benefits of "open loop control" and "closed loop control".

In hydroelectric power generation, dirt and debris in the intake water can shorten the lifetime of turbine blades. Filters inside intake pipes trap the debris so that only sediment-free water hits the blades. A differential pressure sensor/transducer measures the flow. Learn more.

WIKA inline diaphragm seals and flow-through thermowells either reduce or eliminate dead legs where bacterial or fungal contamination can develop in pharmaceutical manufacturing processes.

Replacing standard alloy fittings on a pressure gauge with gall resistant fittings is a minor change, but doing so eliminates the major issues associated with standard fittings. Fittings in a gall resistant material ensure a leak-tight seal, prevent particulate contamination from silver flaking, and minimize damage to the equipment caused by cross-threaded and/or seized fittings.

Flow measurement, along with measuring temperature and pressure, are critical for optimal operation in gas and steam turbines. If these parameters do not stay within appropriate ranges, a power plant will suffer from issues with safety, performance, and efficiency. Learn more.

Pressure gauges in general can handle ambient temperatures as low as -40°F (-40°C). However, once you get closer to the Arctic Circle, temperatures exceeding 40°F become the norm.

WIKA USA's new Dual Switch Gauge offers customers reliable information and exceptional versatility for pressure monitoring in semiconductor, high purity (HP), and ultra-high purity (UHP) applications. Learn more.

Sometimes, references to pressure transmitter accuracy are actually about the non-linearity of the pressure transmitter's response. Although accuracy and non-linearity are related, the two terms are not the same and shouldn't be used interchangeably.

Pressure and temperature instrument dials with big, bright numbers increase instrument visibility and readability. WIKA USA's retro-reflective dial background makes it even easier to locate a critical installation among the sea of industrial gauges, adding to the speed of taking a correct reading.

With the 2020 deadline for elimination of all SAP-based filter monitors quickly approaching, the CDF-X™ provides the only non-SAP drop-in replacement for the EI1588 filter monitors for the aviation fuel filtration industry.

WIKA's mini diaphragm gauge was developed for high-purity applications with limited space requirements, such as smaller integrated gas sticks and gas box assemblies. The nominal sizes of 1" and 1.3" are ideal for applications involving gaseous, liquid, and corrosive media up to 160 psi.

The Junction Module (JX) is the latest addition to the FieldLink line of process networking accessories.

The SC series of single-element industrial filter housings from Cardinal combine the robustness of 304 or 316 stainless steel construction with the economics of a streamlined design.

Iwaki Air's TC-X 401/501/801 series high-quality, precision-engineered AODD pumps are available in both Metallic and Non-Metallic wetted materials with multiple elastomer configurations to meet any and all chemical transfer applications.

Iwaki Air recently introduced their new TC-X500 Series Metallic Flap Valve Pumps. These highly engineered 2" Aluminum Flap Valve Pumps are specifically designed for challenging & demanding fluid transfer applications.
