ELECTROMAGNETIC FLOWMETERS A
BB has launched its latest generation of electromagnetic flowmeters converging two highly versatile and advanced products – ProcessMaster and AquaMaster to combine high performance, modularity and IoT connectivity. The new ProcessMaster is designed for use inside industrial and utility plants, while the updated line of AquaMaster
models are designed for exterior applications, offering exceptional measurement accuracy in water transportation, distribution, and billing.
Modularity is key to the new portfolio and stems from ABB’s commitment to providing sustainable and futureproof solutions. All models are built on a common technology platform, which enables customers to use different sensors and transmitters without pre-pairing configurations, customize communication options according to needs, and simplify upgrades while maintaining compatibility with their previous-generation electromagnetic flowmeters.
IoT connectivity is embedded across all new flowmeter models, providing greater visibility and control of connected flowmeter assets via enhanced data analytics and process control opportunities.

A WINNING FORMULAR FOR LIQUID FLOW MEASUREMENT
W
hen the requirements of a specific flow application or the industrial process demands cannot be adequately met by a standard flow meter, turning to a customised application-engineered measurement device may be the solution. Titan Enterprises works with OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)
customers in developing modified and bespoke liquid flow meters outside of our standard range of oval gear, turbine and ultrasonic flow sensors, driving our partnership innovation in key sectors. Through these OEM collaborations, companies can leverage advanced sensor technology, specialised expertise and customised solutions to address challenging liquid flow applications and environments.
Complex industrial production processes often involve high pressures and temperatures, posing safety risks and potential for error. Standard ‘off-the-shelf’ liquid flow meters can be difficult to install in small spaces or hard-to-reach areas, intricate pipe systems, and environments with variable flow rates or hazardous atmospheres. Where a standard flowmeter may not adequately handle such demanding conditions, an application-optimised flow meter may satisfy such needs.

riginal Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are increasingly seeking out sophisticated thermal solutions to improve the performance of medical devices. With over 2 million different medical devices across the global market, according to WHO, the design of these critical devices must be perfect. In this article, Andy Selvy, chief systems designer at industrial heating technology manufacturer Watlow, delves into the transition from traditional heaters to advanced, layered heater technologies in medical device design. The critical role of thermal management in medical devices
Thermal management within medical devices, clinical diagnostics instruments and analytical instruments involves the sophisticated control of temperatures to prevent overheating and ensure devices operate within their optimal performance range. Proper thermal regulation is vital because even the slightest of deviations can lead to device failure, diminished treatment effectiveness, or serious risks to user safety.
Effective thermal management is crucial for devices that generate significant heat during operation or that use heat as part of therapeutic treatments. Examples include maintaining body-temperature fluids in dialysis machines and regulating the temperature of surgical tools to avoid tissue damage. This precise temperature control is essential for the success of treatments and the safety of patients. Addressing the challenges
The introduction of sophisticated heating technologies into medical devices brings a set of complex challenges that must be carefully managed. Advanced heating solutions must not only provide effective temperature control but also ensure safety, requiring rigorous testing and adherence to international safety standards such as IEC 60601-1-11. This regulatory standard outlines specific safety requirements for medical electrical equipment. Achieving high thermal efficiency is essential to prevent overheating, enhance energy efficiency and minimise operational costs. This involves optimising heat transfer capabilities, improving insulation and selecting materials that exhibit excellent thermal properties. Each of these factors plays a critical role in the development of safe and effective medical devices. Furthermore, the development of cutting-edge thermal solutions can be both complex and costly. Manufacturers must balance these factors with the need to produce affordable medical devices. This balance is crucial to ensure that advanced medical technologies remain accessible to healthcare providers and patients alike. Balancing cost and complexity requires innovative design strategies, efficient manufacturing processes and careful material selection to ensure the final product is both effective and economically viable for the market.
