Laboratory Products 59 Green cooling solutions: Ozone-friendly refrigerant air dryers
In a signifi cant move toward greater environmental sustainability, Hi-line Industries announces the transition of its renowned Tundra range of refrigerant air dryers to R-513A as of 2024. R-513A, known as Opteon™ XP10, is a hydrofl uoroolefi n (HFO) refrigerant designed as a replacement for R-134a. This transition refl ects Hi- line’s commitment to offering a high-performance product with a focus on reducing environmental impact.
R-513A stands out with its zero ozone depleting potential (ODP) and a 56% lower global warming potential (GWP) compared to R-134a. This aligns with sustainability goals and ensures compliance with F gas legislation. The refrigerant is classifi ed in the A1 (non-fl ammable) safety category, making it an ideal retrofi t choice for R-134a while maintaining similar cooling performance. Its negligible temperature glide ensures consistent and reliable day-to-day performance.
Despite this transition to a more environmentally friendly refrigerant, Hi-line Industries is steadfast in maintaining the pricing of the Tundra range throughout 2024. This strategic decision aims to support customers facing challenging market conditions and allows them to stay competitive in their respective industries.
Tundra refrigeration air dryers have become a staple in various industries across the UK. Renowned for their reliability, energy effi ciency, and competitive pricing, Tundra dryers play a crucial role in enhancing the quality of compressed air, protecting valuable assets, and outperforming competitors in terms of energy effi ciency. The innovative features of Tundra include a patented single-cell heat exchanger, ensuring effi cient heat transfer at low energy costs, and a controller- condensate removal valve link that minimises compressed air loss during condensate discharge.
The success and impact of Hi-line extend beyond product recognition, with Managing Director Steve Smith recently inducted into the Industrial Plant and Equipment Hall of Fame. Smith’s over 40 years of experience in the compressed air sector, coupled with Hi-line’s commitment to corporate social responsibility, earned recognition. The company’s sponsorship initiatives, including supporting local sports teams and charitable activities, showcase its dedication to making a positive impact beyond the business realm. Hi-line’s continued sponsorship of athletes like Tom Hamer and support for causes like Help for Heroes further underline its commitment to community engagement and social responsibility.

Advanced thermogravimetric analysers for proximate analysis
Elite Thermal Systems Ltd UK has launched the TGA et500 and TGA et250. Elite Thermal’s Thermogravimetric Analysers (TGAs) are high-performance instruments that measure the weight change of a sample as a function of temperature. They are used for applications including coal, coke, cement, catalyst, feed, and foodstuffs.
Both models of Elite’s TGAs come with an integrated balance that combines Drying, Ashing and Weighing processes. This improves effi ciency, precision, and provides high throughput. Elite’s TGAs are compliant with international standards including ASTM, ISO, DIN, EN and more.
TGA et500 includes a second carousel for automatic placement and removal of crucible lids for fully automatic analysis. TGA et250 is a cost-effective instrument with manual handling of crucible lids.
The TGA et500 features a dual carousel design, streamlining the automatic placement and removal of crucible lids. Equipped with a programmable furnace, this advanced thermogravimetric analyser ensures precision in thermal analysis. The thermally isolated balance, with a sensitivity of 0.0001g, enhances accuracy in weight measurements. Capable of analysing up to 19 samples, the TGA et500 offers versatility for various applications, including organic, inorganic, and synthetic samples. Its Windows-based software facilitates seamless operation with 16 editable programs and LIMS connectivity. The TGA et500 is designed to assess crucial parameters such as moisture, volatiles, ash, loss on ignition (LOI), and fi xed carbon, providing comprehensive insights into sample composition and behaviour.
Elite Thermal Systems Ltd UK has scaled-up their operations by expanding to a new manufacturing facility. More information online:

62033pr@reply-direct.com New-generation laboratory balances
METTLER TOLEDO announces the launch of four new laboratory balance lines. Starting today, laboratories from large enterprises, medium-sized companies and startups worldwide will have a more comprehensive and superior selection of balances to ensure accurate weighing. Customers will benefi t from a broad range of balance models that meet the needs of every user, industry and workplace, from advanced weighing requirements to the most essential weighing needs. The new portfolio is engineered for enhanced user experience, designed with sustainability in mind and built with the highest quality materials for trusted, long-lasting performance.
The MX balances boast weighing performance, effortless data management and user-friendliness. With innovative engineering, these balances provide an ergonomic weighing experience and satisfy advanced weighing requirements. Highly intuitive and with a multitude of smart features, such as ErgoDoors, SmartPan, StatusLight, LevelControl and advanced routine testing functions, these balances simplify your weighing tasks. To easily comply with GxP regulations, they offer user management and activity log traceability.
MR balances deliver consistently accurate results even in the harshest weighing environments. Thanks to their robust construction, these balances are the perfect choice whether you weigh in a busy lab or the challenging conditions of a production setting. A range of built-in applications and connectivity options make MR balances highly versatile.
To make every day weighing easy, MA balances are designed with a focus on valuable, practical features, and they deliver quality without compromise. Touch control on a bright LCD screen, simple menus, guided applications and easy result documentation make weighing a breeze. These balances are also available in a compact portable design with battery operation that saves valuable space on your workbench and enables you to easily transport your balance.
With the LA balances, you can experience affordable quality with all the basic functions you need for essential weighing tasks. LA balances feature a bright LCD display for optimal reading in all conditions. With an RS232 interface, you can connect to a printer, secondary display, or other device. Each balance has three integrated applications (weighing, dynamic weighing and piece counting).
