HBM sets new standards with new ClipX signal conditioner
N
ow available from HBM – a market leader in test and measurement – is the revolutionary new ClipX signal
conditioner, which sets new standards in industrial process control by simply integrating into existing machines and production systems. Designed to optimise production processes, ClipX is a dynamic signal conditioner that not only amplifies signals and transfers them to the control unit, without any interference but also completes preliminary calculations and summaries, to reduce the load on higher level controls. This means that the innovative new ClipX is able to
accomplish some of the tasks that would otherwise be taken on by the higher-level controller. Suitable for monitoring and measuring tasks in test
benches, machines and production plants, ClipX can be used as a standalone device or as part of a system of networked devices.

ritish engineering company Semmco launches the latest HEAD30 solution, part of its life protection systems range. In the UK, a number of workers are killed or seriously injured in confined
spaces across a wide range of hazardous industries each year. Danger can arise when there is a lack of oxygen or if workers are suddenly faced with poisonous gas, fumes or vapours. Breathing apparatus is essential if the air is compromised. Semmco offers a range of breathing protection solutions for individuals
who work in confined spaces and hazardous environments, where the breathable atmosphere may not be safe. The revolutionary design of the HEAD products provide a safe and constant supply of oxygen for up to 10, 15, and now, 30-minutes.

JSP is ahead of the Reg! J
SP Ltd is pleased to announce that they have on day one of the enforcement of the regulation the vast
majority of their product range certified to the new PPE Regulation, 2016/425. This is a year ahead of the cut-off date of 21st April 2019! Over 150 products on 15 certificates across the
complete range of their above-the- neck PPE offering including their market leading EVO® Industrial Safety Helmet Range and Force™ Respirators will be manufactured in accordance with the new regulation from day one.
JSP Ltd has ensured that it is in conformity with the latest European requirements at the earliest opportunity.
The regulation has been brought in to help make sure that the user of PPE is better protected than ever before, using products which they can trust.

T
he new High Viscosity liquid-level sensor Model 7014 from Gill Sensors & Controls has proprietary
conductive technology specifically designed for monitoring highly viscous (water based) liquids. The 7014 sensor features an electrically sensitive probe surface, no moving parts or floats. With this design, there is nothing to wear, freeze or clog, allowing for a reliable signal reading while at the same time reducing maintenance costs.
The probe also features a wetted area manufactured with FEB (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene) that has non-stick properties. The smooth sensing surface can differentiate between being immersed in thick liquids versus air (the airspace at the top of the tank or container). The variance between these two readings is used to calculate true liquid level.
The 7014 sensors can be used for level monitoring in
water-based paint solids, lacquers, and pulp products along with other aggressive water-based cleaning chemical combinations commonly used in industrial processing. Even in extremely syrupy and sticky viscous materials, a simple service of wiping the probe clean using alcohol will reset the device for re-use.
The 7014’s sensor can be mounted in a ''bottoms up''
or inverted orientation with no impact on accuracy. The sensor is available with all the common electrical outputs including Resistive 10-180Ω or 240-33Ω, analog voltage output with both 0.25 - 4.75V DC and 0.25 - 10.0V versions, and current output with 4-20mA. Easy-to-use GUI software includes a programmable switch function (output) that triggers an alarm or warning when the container or tank level has reached the user's preselected point.
The sensor probe has been engineered so that it does
not require any additional mechanical support in the tank, whilst being robust enough to withstand any strong agitation in the tank that may be present.
The single, smooth probe also facilitates the serviceability of the sensor should any cleaning be required, simply with alcohol wipes.
Available with three output options and rated to IP69k,
the 7014 sensor can also be configured to compensate for irregular shaped tanks providing a true volumetric output, essential for process inventory measurements.
