48 Waste Bottle Cap Traps Harmful Vapours To maintain laboratory air quality and safety, Diba has introduced the Omnifit® Labware
T-Series Waste Caps. The chemically inert caps trap and contain escaping vapour generated by HPLC and other lab solvents. A colour changing indicator strip notifies lab personnel when it is time to replace the vapour trap.
The T-Series waste caps come in a range of bottle thread types and connect to 1/8” OD semi-rigid tubing without requiring additional fittings. The tubing pushes straight through the cap Luer ports to create a liquid- and vapour-tight seal. Other tubing sizes can be accommodated using a variety of adapters, without compromising the seal. A separate ¼”- 28 UNF thread port enables connection of a vapour trap and breakthrough indicator unit.
An activated carbon vapour trap isolates any solvent fumes and prevents escape from the system during pressure venting. When the trap becomes saturated, an integrated indicator strip turns red, alerting staff to replace the trap to prevent unintentional vapour breakthrough.
The unique design also prevents over pressurisation. As liquid is collected in the waste bottle, either under pressure or gravity feed, vapour is automatically vented to the trap to prevent explosions or injury.

LABORATORY PRODUCTS
Products Receive ABS Certification
Detcon recently received ABS Type Approval certification on a wide range of gas detection sensors and control systems. This Type Approval certification ensures that a product or system has met specified standards of excellence in construction and design for use on board marine vessels and offshore structures.
Detcon received several Product Design Assessment (PDA) approvals from ABS and also passed a comprehensive Manufacturing Facility audit.
These ABS approved Detcon products can now be applied without further technical evaluation. The ABS certification is widely accepted throughout the global shipping and offshore drilling industries.
All Detcon products undergo extensive in-house quality assessment, testing and evaluation before shipping.

New High Quality Sieve Tensioning System
In today's research or control labs, sieving analysis must be conducted and documented much more accurately and reproducibly than in the past. ISO 9001, laboratory certification, EC safety directives and stricter in-house quality standards now require measuring and test equipment which can be calibrated and validated, boasts complex software and achieves precise results.
The Sieve Shakers ANALYSETTE 3 manufactured by Fritsch ANALYSETTE 3 meet these requirements and have become small ‘high-tech’-instruments compared with earlier models and some competing products.
The most significant technological gap has now been closed with this new, high quality sieve tensioning system TorqueMaster.
This sieve tensioning system enables an automatic, reproducible tensioning of the sieve stack on the sieve shaker. Although the tensioning has a great influence on the result, it is relatively undefined in conventional systems. The unique properties of the TorqueMaster brings constant, reproducible tensioning on the sieve stack through the use of a high-quality electrical tool which results the calibration of sieve tensioning as part of the monitoring of test equipment according to ISO 9001.
TorqueMaster can be attached and used with any sieve shaker offering: reproducible sieve tensioning; fast, easy handling; and optimal for all sieve stack heights.
For years, development in particle measurement seemed to pass sieving analysis by. Now there are good reasons to again make greater use of the advantages this method.

Multi Fluid Multi Range Gives Flexibility and Cost Reduction
Digital Mass Flow Meters and Controllers for gases of Bronkhorst High-Tech’s Select series offer greater flexibility for user selection of both flow ranges and gas types. As a result of their ‘Multi Fluid Multi Range’ feature in combination with a high rangeability (up to 187.5:1), equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are able to drastically reduce the variety of spare instruments they keep on stock and thus reduce the cost of ownership.
Users of MFCs in pilot plants or laboratories can rescale their instruments on site, saving time and money for dismounting and recalibration.
For the convenience of the user, Bronkhorst High-Tech has developed a free software tool called FlowTune. By hooking up the instrument to the RS232 port of a laptop and running this freeware configuration tool, the selection of different flow ranges is as simple as 1, 2, 3.
The instruments, covering flow ranges from 0…1mln/min up to 0…1670ln/min, are available in two configurations. The EL- FLOW Select series have a housing designed for laboratory and clean processing conditions, the IN-FLOW Select series are of rugged design according to IP65 (dust- and waterproof).
The latter are also ATEX Category 3, approved for use in Zone 2 hazardous areas. In addition to the standard analog I/O- signals and the RS232 connection, there is the possibility of integrating an interface board with DeviceNetTM DP®, Modbus or FLOW-BUS protocol.
