The 270/NH3 gas sample probe and ammonia converter provides both a converted and an unconverted sample stream. This provides a way to measure the ammonia slip that is normally found at the exit of a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) unit using the dual NOx differential method. By combining the sample probe and ammonia converter, a single unit provides both filtration and conversion at the source of measurement. The device comes with an aggressive blowback (filter purging) and a calibration-gas inlet port for compliance with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations.

Industry experts will present free educational workshops covering plant performance benchmarking, operations and maintenance (O&M) information handover, and asset performance management (APM). The benchmarking workshop will discuss how to use industry tools to collect and report benchmarking information, and how an owner/operator can take advantage of these data and other metrics to gain a competitive edge in global markets. The O&M meeting will report on guidelines for more effective transfer of information needed for operations and maintenance.

The Accu-Cab RFID (radio-frequency identification) cabinet manages tooling, spare parts and materials at their point of use. The heavy-duty, double-walled cabinet is equipped internally with four RFID antennae and an electromagnetic door lock. To gain access, users must identify themselves, either on a touch-screen monitor mounted on the door or by scanning a bar-code or proximity badge. The contents of the cabinet are tagged using passive Gen 2 tags and are located on adjustable shelving.

Fever Alert products are designed to perform rapid screening of individuals in public places for elevated body temperatures in an effort to slow the spread of flu viruses. Products include a hand-held infrared thermometer, a thermal-imaging camera, and a high-resolution thermal imaging system. The devices automatically detect the hottest temperature on a subject, tracking critical temperature differences in real time. When a high temperature is detected, the unit produces both audible and visible alarms.
