Flowmeter Solutions for High-Speed Batch Dosing
T
itan Enterprises has published a white paper reporting on an investigation into the use of electronic flowmeters in high-speed batching processes. High-speed batch dosing in filling lines increases production throughput and
efficiency, as well as saving on cleaning costs associated with traditional batching processes. Historically, small turbine flowmeters have satisfied markets where reasonable volume batching is used. However, turbine flowmeters do have moving parts within the flow line which can limit the life of the flow device due to wear and tear. Mechanical devices also require hygienic cleaning which adds to downtime. For processes requiring high-speed
integrated batch dosing, ultrasonic flowmeters, such as Titan’s Atrato flowmeter, provide an easy-to-clean system with no moving parts. However, there is a trade-off between response time and affordability. Titan’s white paper highlights some of the issues raised when using electronic flowmeters. To read the full article, visit

PANDUIT LAUNCHES ADJUSTABLE DEPTH 4 POST RACK
in data centre and telecommunication environments. The rack combines the stability of a cabinet with the accessibility of an open rack to provide the user with maximum flexibility when designing the network layout. The adjustable depth 4 Post Rack system
P
allows maximum versatility in a single part number. Additional mounting holes in the posts allow for various accessories to be attached to create greater application flexibility. The enterprise adjustable rack has the capability to adjust the depth of the rack to fit
specific network needs. Each rack has 39 different depth options from 584mm to 1066mm in 13mm increments. The adjustable rack can be assembled in minutes and is self-squaring when assembled. The rack’s feet face inward for minimise footprint, remove trip hazards and improved safety risk.

ROTRONIC EXPERIENCES HUGE DEMAND FOR CO2 MEASURING INSTRUMENTS
the Covid-19 pandemic. To ensure fresh air is introduced when needed to maintain the recommended 1,000 ppm carbon dioxide (CO2) and humidity 40 - 60 %rh levels for good air quality, schools and companies are using CO2 measuring instruments. These effectively indicate when increased ventilation is needed. ROTRONIC is the leading Swiss manufacturer of CO2 displays and is experiencing a huge boom in demand.

egular ventilation of rooms and enclosed public spaces has taken on increased importance with
SICK MAX48 linear encoders use reliable, non-contact magnetostriction technology to measure the piston position in the hydraulic cylinders widely used in industrial, materials handling and agricultural vehicles. The SICK MAX encoders offer compact integration benefits for new machinery designs. They also provide an opportunity for end users to upgrade to more rugged performance and diagnostic feedback through quick and easy retrofit into existing cylinders. The SICK MAX30 is believed to be the smallest in-cylinder magnetostrictive linear
encoder on the market, with a head dimension of 30mm x 35mm, extending the innovative MAX® positional feedback technology to smaller cylinders with more limited space. OEMs therefore have new opportunities to take advantage of the SICK MAX’s highly-reliable, contactless and wear-free positional accuracy, including in axes with lower operating forces. This enables them to be installed into material handling machinery such as mobile cranes, reach stackers and lift trucks, for example in outrigger cylinders, lift and tilt cylinders and steering systems. The new SICK MAX48A introduces a highly-durable full stainless-steel enclosure and
axial wire orientation to extend the benefits of the popular 48mm SICK MAX48 linear encoder to the harshest industrial operating environments.
Built-in Diagnostics All SICK MAX® linear encoders feature built-in diagnostics to record data for preventative and predictive maintenance, enabling, for example, analysis of operating cycles and the determination of operating limits. This diagnostic information provides data to machinery control systems to ensure performance, safety and reliability in machine operation and maintenance. End users can easily incorporate the instrumented cylinders in existing systems to maximise machine availability and avoid costly unplanned downtime. The SICK MAX30 is suitable for smaller cylinders with piston diameters of 30mm or
more and piston rod diameters of 20mm or more. Maximum stroke length for the MAX48 is 2500mm, while the MAX30 is available with stroke lengths up to 1500mm; any length can be specified upwards from 50mm in 1mm intervals.
