Tank vent dryers B
preventing water contamination in storage tanks
rownell has extended its range of storage tank vent dryers and adsorbers to prevent the contamination of
valuable products from the harmful effects of moisture. Installation of these breathers has been made quick and simple, with a direct connection to an existing breather or vent pipe. This configuration ensures the water vapour
entering the storage tank is adsorbed before contaminating the stored products. A removable adsorbent container allows the unit’s desiccant material to be changed without breaking the breather pipe connection. 0Furthermore, a distinctive change in the desiccant’s colour, signals when it is saturated and needs to be replaced or reactivated. Stored products characteristics can be adversely changed by an increase in moisture content. These effects can include: reduced viscosity, lower electrical insulation, chemical stability and concentration.

New Cost-Cutting Torque Tester
ecmesin’s new Vortex-xt cuts recall costs because it improves efficiency and reduces waste. It’s a cost-effective solution as it measures release, application and stripping torque on tamper- evident closures.
M It’s able to identify bridge breaks and can help to
avoid spinners. The Vortex-xt has top-load functionality and can be easily adapted to test child resistant closures or unusual containers using Mecmesin’s bespoke fittings and moulded mandrels. It’s so easy to use: one button launches the test and its stand-alone system means that no PC is required, making it ideal for production areas. The machine’s simple set-up means manufacturers can test clockwise and counter-clockwise torques of packaging components, such as the application and release torque of screw closures, with just two clicks of the touch screen interface.
Mecmesin can offer
on-site installation, training and application support services. Mecmesin

Nederman and Dantherm Filtration combine in the UK
F
ollowing last year’s acquisition of Dantherm Filtration by Nederman, the combined business
began trading in the UK as Nederman Ltd on 01st April 2011. “We reviewed operations carefully and have now successfully integrated customer service, aftersales and project sales,” said Mark Hodgens, Managing Director. “Combining as a single business is an important milestone, our customers and suppliers will be receiving formal communication over the coming weeks.” Although Nederman have completed several notable acquisitions, both in the UK and internationally,
following successful
flotation on the OMX Stockholm Stock Exchange in 2007 this has been on a different scale, doubling Nederman’s size and positioning it as the global market leader in industrial air filtration. The group now makes combined annual sales of around £195 million in nearly 60 countries (with 27 fully owned companies) supported by manufacturing and assembly plant in 8 countries.
