BVP80, BVP70, BVE80 and BVE70 Ball Valves
These ball valve packages combine three elements — the valve, an actuator designed to meet the torque requirements of the valve, and a mounting system that assures alignment and rigidity. The pneumatic actuators on the BVP80 and BVP70 models offer the latest technology for pneumatically actuating BV80 Series ball valves with NPT threads and BV70 Series with compression fittings. Spring-return models requiring only 50-psi supply air that can spring to open or closed without loss of output torque from the air-operated side are available. The electric actuators on the BVE80 and BVE70 models feature two 1/2-in. NPT conduit ports and integral thermal-overload protection. The Series’ compact size and light-weight construction features standard in-line or cross-mount valve-to-actuator configurations. Standard materials of construction are stainless steel external trim and Viton O-rings.

OM-CP-FRTC4000A
The OM-CP-FRTC4000A, a miniature, wireless, battery-powered, standalone thermocouple-based temperature transmitter, sends readings back to its host computer, where the data can be analyzed in real-time. The readings are also logged into the device’s memory for added data security. Data are received at the PC using a receiver that attaches directly to the serial port. Numerous devices may transmit data to the same receiving station. All received data are date- and time-stamped and stored directly to the PC. The data can be printed in graphical or tabular format, and can be exported to a text or Excel file.

FV100 Series of inline flowmeters
The FV100 Series consist of inline flowmeters that use the vortex-shedding measuring principle. When fluid strikes a bluff body, it imparts alternating vortices downstream of the bluff. This creates a vibration on a sensor body that contains a piezoelectric crystal, whose frequency is proportional to the velocity of the fluid, and is amplified and converted to a 4–20-mA output signal. The FV100 Series has no moving parts and features a bright LED that displays flow in liters or gallons. It can measure flow in either direction and can be used with non-viscous, clean or dirty water-like liquids. The FV100 series is ideal for use in cooling loops that use water or 50% glycols for up to 10% water-soluble machine coolant.

HTWAT silicone rubber heating tapes
Designed for process temperature control, freeze protection, and supplemental heat applications in the manufacturing, construction, petroleum and public works industries, HTWAT silicone rubber heating tapes feature an adjustable thermostat control that goes up to 218ºC (425ºF). They are moisture- and chemical-resistant, and are suitable for use on electrically conductive surfaces. They heat up very quickly and are CE-compliant. These tapes can be used on valves, pipelines, bearings, filter housings, paint, powder, actuators, etc.
