Asahi/America Type-21a flow control ball valve
The Type-21a seat support technology flow control ball valve from Asahi/America is available in 1/2 through 2 inches. The valve features a precision-machined PVC ball with center provisions to support PTFE seats from zero to 100% of capable flow. It produces equal percentage flow characteristics for fine throttling. The valve requires directional installation and comes equipped with a flow direction label. Manually operated SST ball valves include a 0- to 100-degrees indicator plate and an indicator line on the handle, which doubles as a carrier adjustment tool. An ISO 5211 top flange bolt pattern and integrally molded base pad for panel mounting are standard on all Type-21a SST ball valves, and the valve body is PVC with either EPDM or FKM O-rings. 800-343-3618; www.asahi-america.com.
Best Purging Systems Model YZ102 purge unit
Best Purging Systems Model YZ102 is a Type Y or Z purge unit designed to protect electrical equipment in Class I hazardous areas. When connected to a supply of protective gas, and utilized in conjunction with a Model PV-2 spark arresting purge vent, the Model YZ102 will supply, regulate, and monitor the protective gas supply to a protected electrical enclosure and accomplish purging of the protected enclosure in an expedited manner. The maximum enclosure volume is 15 cubic feet and the unit has three mounting options: universal, vertical and horizontal. The unit has an operating temperature range of minus 20 to 120 degrees F. 844-787-4348; www.purgeit.com.
Shimadzu Scientific Instruments ion chromatograph
Shimadzu Scientific Instruments’ new ion chromatograph features a built-in electrodialytic suppressor. The suppressor minimizes band spreading and achieves high sensitivity for the quantitative determination of anions. The suppressor is rugged, providing stable functionality over long periods of operation. In addition, the system’s compact design requires less bench space. The unit features a unique, volume-minimized folded flow path, combined with optimized dialytic, enabling it to achieve high efficiency and stability. The design reduces peak spreading, which increases the sensitivity for components with low retention, such as fluoride, and improves separation from the water dip. 800-477-1227; www.shimadzu.com.
Endress+Hauser Liquiphant vibrating fork level instruments
Liquiphant FTL51B and FTL41 vibrating fork (vibronic) level instruments from Endress+Hauser reliably detect the point level of liquids in storage tanks, containers and pipes. The FTL51B features Industry 4.0 and IIoT capabilities, including access via wireless Bluetooth technology, automatic proof tests and verification, and easy commissioning via a mobile device. Operational clarity is provided by a high-visibility LED. The FTL51B‘s vibronic sensor is not affected by changing media properties, flow, turbulence, gas bubbles, foam, vibration or build-up. The instrument works in process temperatures of minus 58 to 302 degrees F and pressures up to 1,450 psi. It can be used in SIL2 and SIL3 hazardous locations and has built-in automatic maintenance and verification functions. 888-363-7377; www.us.endress.com.
Franklin Miller Dimminutor channel disintegrator
The Dimminutor from Franklin Miller provides effective, automatic screening and grinding of wastewater solids in straight-through channels and wet wells. The unit reduces plastics, wood, rags and other solids to fine bits, enhancing plant operation and improving the reliability of pumps and other downstream equipment. The Dimminutor employs a smooth, continuously rotating design with high torque. As its three bidirectional rotary cutters intermesh at close clearance with stationary cutters, solids are finely reduced to a size small enough to pass through a sizing screen. A unique, cantilevered design eliminates seals or bearings near the gritty channel floor. 800-932-0599; www.franklinmiller.com.
Flow Technology QCT Series ultrasonic flowmeters
Flow Technology’s QCT Series of in-line ultrasonic flowmeters are for use in low viscosity liquid applications. Typical applications include water treatment for boilers and cooling towers, clean-in-place systems, mechanical seal flushing/cooling, high purity water systems, process water, cooling loops, reverse osmosis systems and small line injection systems. The QCT has no moving parts, nonwetted sensors, and there is nothing in the flow stream that will cause an obstruction to the flow path. The meter is available in sizes of 1/8- to 1-inch, is accurate to plus or minus 0.5% of reading, plus zero stability and repeatability is plus or minus 0.2% over 10:1 calibration range. It has a 0.035 to 70 gpm flow range, 14 to 176 degrees F temperature range, and analog, scaled frequency and Modbus RTU outputs. 480-240-3400; www.ftimeters.com.
Flomatic Valves Model Cycle Gard pressure pump control valve
The Model Cycle Gard IV CB152SST from Flomatic Valves is a stainless steel direct-acting constant pressure pump control valve with tappings. The body is equipped with 1-inch NPT-size female inlet threads and 1-inch NPT union end female outlet connection. The valves standard pressure range is 15 to 75 psi with an optional 15 to 150 psi range. The valve body maximum pressure rating is 400 psi. All of the valves internal parts are corrosion resistant with a stainless steel spring and fasteners for long service life. It maintains a preset operating pressure and reduces rapid pump cycling, and is proven protection for wells and booster pumps. 800-833-2040; www.flomatic.com.
