CHELL INTRODUCES STATE-OF-THE-ART LEAK TESTER
W
orld-renowned gas measurement and control
experts Chell Instruments have introduced their newest design, the state-of-the-art CLC100 Leak Tester. The CLC100 is just one of the
many new instruments being developed at Chell and the latest leak tester equipment created by the Norfolk engineers. This easy to use machine is designed for fast and reliable leak testing in a huge range of applications. With a pressure range between -1 and 10 bar, the CLC100 accurately measures leaks in pressurised gas lines for optimum leak sensitivity. “This unique product has been developed with the customer in mind” states Nick
Broadley, Managing Director at Chell. “It’s a necessity for any engineer working with pressurised gas lines. Not only does our CLC100 improve quality control but it’s the fastest and most accurate leak testing cycle on the market.”

MONITORING CO2 CONCENTRATIONS IN PIG AND POULTRY PROCESSING
O
ver recent years, there has been increasing concern for raising animal
welfare standards in pig and poultry processing. This covers not just the animal’s environment and diet but also the procedures used in the slaughtering process. To ensure that an animal is insensitive
to pain while being slaughtered, a European Union directive requires that all animals are stunned prior to slaughter. Several methods can be used to render the animal unconscious including the use of gas. Gas stunning involves using an environment with a high CO2 concentration to cause
the animal to become unconscious. This approach to stunning has gained popularity as it can offer a reduced risk of injury during the stunning process as there is no need to restrain the animals beforehand. Edinburgh Sensors provides several options with devices well-suited for CO2-sensing
for livestock stunning and slaughter:

NEW MAGNETIC POSITION SENSORS FROM BALLUFF T
he latest additions to the Balluff BMP family of magnetic position sensors combine IO-Link, analog voltage and analog current in a singular device to overcome the limitations of discrete pneumatic cylinder
switches. The newly released sensors provide continuous linear feedback — detecting and measuring the position of
pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder rods and actuators through non-ferrous housing walls, over the entire measurement range. They do this all contact free. Ideal for most industries, they are especially advantageous for Industry 4.0 as they improve ease of automation size change and allow for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance. The BMP magnetic position sensors calculate the actual target position of the magnet and output it as a
position-dependent analog or IO-Link signal. They deliver signal stability and reliability, and the sensors’ compact size allows for integration in very limited installation spaces. The IO-Link and analog all-in-one options give the full suite of IO-Link functionality including integrated
switch points, internal sensor temperature, fast cycle time, measurement value, and scaling factor and status. Key features include:
• Analog voltage, current output and IO-Link interface • Continuous monitoring of piston position in tight spaces • Ideal for Industry 4.0 — automatic size change, condition monitoring and predictive maintenance • Available in 8 different measurement ranges from 32 to 256 mm, in 32mm increments
