MINIMISING DOWNTIME, OPTIMISING PLANT EFFICIENCY
T
he “Rotech” range of monitoring equipment is comprised of a range of motion
sensors/encoders, vibration sensors and associated speed relays. The heavy duty sensors are installed on the end of the shaft or on the belt being monitored. They send an electrical signal proportional to the speed of the shaft/belt to a suitable control unit. The control unit can be a “Rotech” speed relay, a programmable controller, a computer, data logger device or other proprietary control equipment. The alarm level of the control unit is set to just below the normal running speed of the shaft. In the event of the shaft/belt slowing below the set level, the control unit operates and can be connected to give an alarm to the operator and/or shutdown preceding items of plant. Wherever materials are transported or processed by conveyors, elevators, screws, crushers, mixers etc. there are applications for “Rotech” motion sensors/encoders.

ANOTHER STEP IN INNOVATION H
ere at Chell Instruments, we're always looking for ways to improve
generation CCD100 and CCD104. An evolution of the popular mark two models, they can each power, read and control almost any mass flow meter, controller, pressure transducer or capacitance manometer on the market. The most obvious development is the new screen. The mark two's LCD display (itself
improved from the mark one's LED) has been replaced with an OLED colour display. This strong and clear screen again improves visibility in bright test environments. The CCD100 mark three is lighter and more compact than its predecessor, allowing for use in tighter spaces and requiring less room on a busy workbench. However, it still retains its 1/8 DIN cut out size.

ABB ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE OF ABB ABILITY™
N
ew software provides quick and efficient verification of device accuracy parameters to ensure quality and compliance with regulatory requirements ABB’s Measurement & Analytics business unit announced the release of its
ABB Ability™ Verification for measurement devices software product. This digital solution helps customers quickly determine the accuracy and other vital parameters of their installed ABB devices to ensure that they maintain their desired performance levels in the field, and that they continue to meet mandated regulatory and quality standards. This verification approach increases the window of time needed between device recalibrations, and helps to maintain optimal device performance. Regular device verification reduces process downtime, and saves money. Verification is the inspection and testing of a measurement device to ensure that it is functioning within a specified measurement accuracy range. This practice is typically used to
meet regulatory and Quality Management System requirements. Industrial instrumentation is robust, very reliable and designed to operate for many years with minimal maintenance. In today's competitive environment, customers are looking
for ways to maximize their profitability. Regular product verifications are one way to ensure that processes continuously operate at their peak levels. ABB Ability™ Verification for measurement devices is an extensible application that connects with field devices over their applicable protocols to provide in situ verification. It
provides PASS / FAIL results together with relevant diagnostic information in a series of tests chosen by the user. It runs these tests on the field device and issues a test certificate as proof of verification. ABB Ability™ Verification is offered as a free software download for a trial health indication. To access all features of the software, a customer can buy licenses via its local ABB
organizations. With the full version, the user gets access to diagnostic data, value trends and a print-out of standardized verification reports. ABB

DIGITAL SERVICES PLATFORM "The reception in the Microsoft booth at HANNOVER MESSE to ESAB's latest online data management technology has been phenomenal," says Mike Pantaleano, VP Data Driven Advantage, ESAB. ESAB showed off new prototypes powered by Microsoft Azure IoT and utilizes the ThingWorx® Industrial Innovation Platform from PTC. Pantaleano reports that visitor
comments included such statements as, "I can't believe you have this. I was going to try to build this, but now it's done" and, "This is excellent. I had to come back and get more information." ESAB's Digital Solutions platform provides several capabilities — ESAB WeldCloud,
ESAB CutCloud and more to come — that connect digital ecosystems for welding and mechanized cutting, respectively. At HANNOVER MESSE with Microsoft, ESAB showcased the new architecture for ESAB's systems that allow for on-premise, hybrid and cloud based architectures.
