helicopter load sensor keeps getting smarter
H eliNav LoadMaster, the intelligent wireless
helicopter load sensor has been upgraded with a string of new capabilities. Inclinometers have been added so that it can be used with three-point fixing for large loads; a new receiver wirelessly collects live load data for analysis, interpretation and reporting, and a new display gives real-time information on operational variables to aid calculation of flight and operational profiles. The HeliNav LoadMaster sensor is autonomous, using a wireless communications’ link to its own display and computer in the cockpit. This means it does not require additional certification of the electrical systems and can be swapped from one aircraft to another in seconds.
HeliNav
LoadMaster can be used in conjunction with other electronic systems, such as navigation and tracking, so will automatically produce comprehensive operational performance reports.

he compact and innovative flowplus16 pressure sensor offers high accuracy monitoring of material flow for critical dosing and dispensing applications. Accurate inline pressure sensing can deliver important quality assurance in a wide range of automatic processes; for example, in medical, pharmaceutical and semiconductor manufacturing, analytical and laboratory environments, and the wider areas of process control. flowplus16 detects irregularities in flow, caused by air bubbles or blockages, enabling remedial action. The flowplus16 is maintenance free, featuring an inert fluoropolymer internal coating providing a smooth and consistent fluid pathway with no internal dead space. It is easily integrated into existing control systems thanks to its standard luer lock fittings and internal microchip which provides a standardised 0-10V digital output signal for temperature-compensated readings without complicated calibration. flowplus16 handles flows of up to 100ml/min at pressures of 0-16 bar and between 15°C to 45°C.

Drop-in Replacement for Strantrol® pH and ORP Probes
S
ensorex’s S420 probes offer an alternative to Strantrol® pH and ORP probes used in swimming pool, industrial, municipal and potable water applications. The S420 series was designed expressly as a direct replacement for existing Strantrol pH and ORP probes. Constructed of durable CPVC, S420 probes offer improved chemical resistance. Additionally, Sensorex uses a higher volume of its proprietary polymer sensor reference gel for longer service life. Sensorex’s advanced sensor technology
delivers accurate measurement over a range of 0-14 pH or -1000–1000mV for ORP. The probes are suited to a variety of applications with a temperature range of 0-50°C and a pressure maximum of 100psig. The threaded ½” NPT connection enables easy in line installation or use with existing Strantrol flow cells without modification. Advanced signal shielding reduces noise for more accurate communication with process control systems. Both the pH and ORP probes are available with the option of 30 inch or 10 foot cable lengths for quick integration into existing systems.

Mechanical Speed Adjustment for Hydra-Cell Metering Pumps
metering pumps. These pumps are used in oil and gas production for injecting chemicals such as acids and bases, amine gas sweeteners, oxygen scavengers, polymers and proprietary chemicals into process streams. Because Hydra-Cell pumps are true positive displacement pumps, flow rate is directly proportionate to input shaft rpm and virtually independent of system discharge pressures. Very precise and repeatable, infinite adjustment of shaft speed is achieved from almost zero rpm, through a simple manual adjust hand wheel. It transmits its highest torque from speed zero, is adjustable in operation and at rest and exhibits linear setting characteristics. The Wanner mechanical speed variator is ideal for use in explosive environments and is ATEX certified for zones 1 and 21, completely removing the need for complex and costly external ATEX control.

Litre Meter supplies ultra high purity sierra meters
Trak 780S-UHP Ultra High Purity units to a leading specialty gas supplier. Speciality gases can range from 99.995 per cent to 99.99998 per cent purity depending on the gas type. To mix gases with this level of purity it is essential to use a robust electro- polished meter capable of high accuracy. The Flat Trak-UHP instruments are designed to measure the flow of gases at pressures of up to 8 bar. The meters were selected because they are highly stable and deliver a measurement accuracy of +/- 1 per cent of reading plus 0.5 per cent of full scale and a repeatability of +/- 0.2 per cent of full scale. The 780S-UHP is constructed with 316L electro-polished steel tubing in a choice of 7-10 Ra (UHP) or 20-25 Ra (HP) interior in pipe sizes from ½ inch up to 12 inches which are offered with Buttweld connections and a VCR probe-connection fitting.
