New ABB data recorder puts your process at your fingertips


A


BB’s new RVG200 paperless data recorder


incorporates a number of advanced features giving operators slick, easy and secure access to process data. A key feature is the RVG200’s


use of


touchscreen technology. By using the device’s intuitive icon-based menus or ‘swiping’ through the screens, operators can rapidly find the data they need. This data can be viewed in a variety of formats, including individual or grouped data in chart, bar graph or digital indicator displays. Up to 24 universal analog inputs enable direct connection of mA, mV, TC, RTD, voltage and digital signals. Coupled with a 125mS sample rate and 500V galvanic channel to channel isolation, these inputs deliver reliable, highly accurate, data from connected process instruments. The high specification of the process inputs ensure they are AMS2750E compliant, making the RVG200 suitable for temperature recording in aerospace and automotive heat treatment processes. Another new feature is the inclusion of front and rear USB ports. Users can connect a variety of peripheral devices, such as a USB memory drive, enabling archived process data to be transferred from the RVG200 to ABB’s DataManager Pro software for analysis.

energy use, reduce consumption and optimise plant performance. As a stand- alone unit, the TFA integrates a flow sensing device, temperature sensor and flow computer into a single compact unit reducing installation requirements and consequently maximising plant uptime and increasing productivity. The compact design of the TFA means it can be easily installed almost anywhere in a steam system, even in confined spaces or within the proximity of a pipe bend, valves or other components. It only needs six pipe diameters of straight pipe upstream and three downstream to ensure the desired flow profile into the meter. This overcomes a major challenge in point of use metering, where there are limited straight pipe runs, so reducing installation costs and overall capital outlay. With a turndown of up to 10:1, the TFA flow meter is suitable for saturated steam systems and will accurately monitor steam flow even at low velocities, without having to make expensive changes to pipe size.

New heavy duty air operated hoists F


SHOWCASE


Fast-fit steam flow meter pinpoints energy savings at point of use


pirax Sarco has launched its Target Fixed Area (TFA) steam flow meter for smaller, point-of-use applications to help operators accurately assess


ollowing an ongoing programme of development and innovation, the hoist and crane specialist J D Neuhaus have introduced further new


models into their EH range of air operated monorail hoists. These powerful, robust units provide reliable solutions for heavy duty lifting in the harshest environments including onshore and offshore, the cement industry, steelworks and shipbuilding etc. Two versions, for each of the 75


and 100 tonne lifting capacity products in the EH range are now available in both double trolley as well as the previously available 4 trolley traverse drive versions. All these models utilise a new air motor unit providing a 9kW power output at a 6 bar air pressure supply. This motor incorporates well proven technology for the lift/drive and integrated braking operations, based upon a stepped brake piston and self-lubricating rotor unit. These redesigned 4 trolley drive version hoists are designated as EH 75 and EH 100 offering 75 or 100 tonnes lift capacities respectively. The new twin trolley drive versions, which offer more compact units for operation where limited space is available, are designated as EH 75C and EH 100C. The latest JDN design features and advantages are incorporated throughout the range, which include reductions in overall size as well as up to 50% energy savings from reduced air consumption.

Air treatment equipment prices remain unchanged for 4th consecutive year


H


aving built-up a reputation for high performance, energy efficient products, Hi-line Industries Ltd now also confirm that prices for their


range of air treatment products will be held unchanged for the 4th consecutive year. Their product range includes adsorption, refrigerant, desiccant and membrane dryer technologies for general commercial and industrial applications. Specialised requirements for medical, dental and breathing-air operation are also covered with their Hi-Zorb point-of-use desiccant dryers incorporating both filtration and energy control technologies. Adsorption dryers in their range include the HBP-ZL heat regeneration units with zero air-loss qualities. These offer touch-screen control with -70°C and -40°C dewpoints, while also providing heat recovery and heat-of-compression energy-saving options. Their HPSA (heatless pressure swing adsorption) dryers offer -70°C, -40°C and -25°C dewpoints with AEMS dewpoint control and approval of food industry applications. Their membrane technology dryers do not require an electrical supply, ideal for remote site applications where clean, dry air can be provided in the absence of a power supply.
