Using the “piston time-of-fall” method, the M10 viscosity sensor measures viscosities from 0.1 to 100,000 cP at pressures from vacuum to 100 psi. It is designed for suspensions or solutions, and is sensitive enough to detect the difference in the viscosity of boiling water (0.294 cP) and ambient water (1.06 cP). The sensor features Type 316 stainless steel wetted parts, and can be equipped with piston rods of 12 different sizes for installation in tanks from 12 in. to 12 ft deep.

Built on a modular platform to offer maximum flexibility, the CC3000 operator-interface enclosure system protects operator interface terminals and electronic monitors in UL Type 12 industrial environments. The enclosures feature single-wall aluminum construction to dissipate heat efficiently and eliminate heat buildup inside the enclosure. In many cases, this eliminates the need for active cooling, but if needed, an internal fan can be installed.

The ThermaCAM GasFindIR-LW infrared camera can detect more than 20 different gases, including sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) — a greenhouse gas with an estimated atmospheric lifetime of 3,200 yr and a global warming potential 23,900 times that of CO2. Capable of scanning large areas to allow thermographers to locate SF6 gas leaks up to hundreds of feet away, it delivers real-time, high-resolution thermal images of gas leaks, which can be displayed on a standard TV or recorded digitally. The lightweight unit weighs only 4.6 lb and is powered by a camcorder battery.

The 364 pressure and differential-pressure transmitter features an innovative design that eliminates the need for bolts, gaskets and flanges — all traditional leak paths in pressure transmitters. A lightweight all-stainless-steel housing and process connection is standard, along with a Hastelloy C-276 diaphragm for corrosive process media. The device has a stability of ±0.15% of maximum span for a 10-yr period, which reduces calibration frequency. An on-board LCD display with an “Easy Steup” menu configuration simplifies installation and commissioning.

 The Model DP86 is a double-sided, stainless-steel isolated, piezoresistive silicon pressure sensor packaged in a rugged Type 316L stainless steel housing, which makes it suitable for use in liquids and corrosive environments. Made for high-performance, low-pressure applications where differential pressure is required, the DP86 has been designed for O-ring mounting. The performance of the unit is said to match that of differential sensors that cost five times as much, in a package only one-half the size.

The UltraScan VIS is a high-performance color measurement spectrophotometer that measures the full range of human color perception in seconds. It easily measures both reflected and transmitted color as well as transmission haze, and meets CIE, ASTM and USP guidelines for accurate color measurement. Spectral data are reported every 10 nm and tristimulus color calculations are performed from 360 to 780 nm as recommended by the CIE.

The ORCA Sonar Series Interface level transmitter provides a wide range of performance-enhancing sonar transducer frequencies to yield comprehensive and continuous interface level measurement. Featuring industrial scum-cleaning mechanisms that require virtually no maintenance, the ORCA Sonar Series’ transducers are continually cleaned, allowing for efficient and accurate measurements up to 100 ft.

Offering on/off and continuous process control, the Type 8205 pH controller combines a flat glass sensor and PID-controller/display within a single, splash-proof, plastic NEMA 4 enclosure. It can be integrated with the sensor or remote via a panel or wall mount. As an added feature, the pH controller indicates when the probe is 50% and fully expired when calibrating. The fittings are available in stainless steel, brass, PVDF, PP and PVC, with process connections that include threaded, TriClamp, true union and sanitary.

The LCB Series of compact linear actuators incorporates a low-friction, dry-running sliding bearing carriage that provides long, reliable travel life — even at 100% duty cycle. Coupled with the manufacturer’s motors/controls, the actuator series offers a fully programmable, high-performance solution at a competitive price, while reducing space requirements. Low carriage mass and a steel-reinforced timing belt enable high acceleration and sustained velocity.

The Ultima X Series Sensor X-change program is a sensor-replacement service that supplies users with replacement calibrated sensor modules when they are needed, on demand. Sensors arrive prior to the Ultima X Monitor’s scheduled calibration date for easy installation and minimal downtime. Simply change out the old sensor with the new, perform a gas check, and the system is operational.
