SHOWCASE Advertorial
BEKO’s new condensate drain
T
he new BEKOMAT 33 was presented for the first time at this year’s
Hannover trade fair in Germany. With this new condensate drain BEKO
further extends the range started with the 31 and 32 drains two years
ago. These drains have been very well received by our customers, leading
to demand for a larger device- hence the new 33. All three drains in the
range have the same basic innovative concept in common: The BEKO
service module. This module contains all wearing parts in a corrosion
resistant housing which is fitted in seconds- making service a doddle! On
the 33 we find, in addition, a condensate receiver tank to cater for larger
condensate output, and a larger valve orifice. When changing the service
unit the condensate tank remains in place attached to the compressed
Endress+Hauser
air system, meaning no time consuming de-coupling of solid pipework.

Spirax Sarco controls maintain
good taste at Lionel Hitchen
A
s a leading independent manufacturer of natural extracts, oils and flavours for
the food industry, Lionel Hitchen has opted to standardise on pneumatic
controls from Spirax Sarco to ensure that every batch of product reaches the
required standard. Lionel Hitchen was confident that Spirax Sarco controls could
provide the reliability and precision required in some of its most crucial
temperature control applications, since it has used a variety of Spirax Sarco
products around the site for 15 years. The chosen system controls the temperature
