Pageant Intrinsically Safe Operator Panel & PLC
The LHS 210 / 410 Air Heater Series
Leister’s new series of compact and powerful LHS 210 / 410 air heaters are suitable for installation in industrial plants where space is limited or tubular air systems such as furnaces for heat curing processes, due to their compact design and ease of integra- tion. With a choice of eight air heaters with single (SF) or dual flanges (DF), the innovative design allows for easy electrical connection, with connection housing separated from the airstream, which allows unhindered air flows through the air heater with minimal loss in pressure. The connection housing is also protected against overheating, making it pos- sible to work with an air inlet temperature up to 350 degrees Celsius. The SF-R and DF-R air heaters are equipped with an extension on the housing connec- tion. The ceramic inside this extension ensures that the electrical connection on the tubular air heaters is sealed off and protected from high temperatures or backflowing hot air.

BEKA associates have introduced Pageant, a new intrinsically safe combined Operator Panel and Programmable Logic Controller with plug-in input and output modules allowing direct connection to hazardous area sensors. Its optional Modbus RTU port can transmit data to other equipment in the safe or hazardous area and also enables it to be used as a remote Modbus RTU display.
Pageant’s state of the art, low power technology simplifies design and reduces the cost of providing operator displays and controls in a hazardous area. Multiple variables can be displayed simultaneously, plus eight touch switches with tricolour LED indicators significantly reduce panel space requirements. Intrinsic safety protection provides maximum safety and allows installation in almost any flammable gas or combustible dust atmosphere or Zone.
Featuring a 7 inch backlit trans-reflective display which can be read in all lighting conditions, the panel and all of the plug-in modules have Ex ia certification allowing installation in Zones 1, 2, 21 and 22. The IECEx, ATEX and UKCA certifications permit any combination of plug-in input and output modules to be fitted to the display without the need for additional certification. Plug-in input and output modules for interfacing 4/20mA currents, switch contacts, proximity detectors and pulse sources are already available and more are being developed for other sensors.
The PLC employs industry standard CODESYS® runtime software which complies with IEC 61131 allowing programming in five different languages. The software includes a wealth of features and function blocks such as PID control and is supplied with a lifetime licence. CODESYS runtime software is already installed in more than 1,500 different products worldwide.

Gas and Steam flow computers offer accurate measurement of your gas and steam usage
As global uncertainty continues to disrupt day to day life and energy costs surge to unprecedented levels, the need for accurate measurement of gas, steam and other fluids vital to industry has never been more important.
Gas, steam, compressed air and industrial gases
are expensive commodities and now, more than ever, it’s essential that we only use what we really need, and that we minimise any wastage.
Contrec flow computers are the ideal choice for factory managers, process engineers and business owners to keep a keen eye on their energy usage, not just as part of the drive towards being carbon neutral, but in being able to keep their usage as low as possible.
Modern day flow computers can accurately compute the volume, mass, energy, temperature and pressure of the fluids, display these values for operators but also log and retransmit all these values back to the DCS or Scada systems where they can then be analysed for potential peaks, troughs, leaks that might not otherwise be found. Examples could be over use of gas when not required, highlighting faulty steam trap leaks, or air compressors being undersized for their duty and consequently costing more to run than they should. Contrec flow computers can help locate and improve all these issues when installed within a suitable metering system.
Contrec Gas and Steam flow computers operate with virtually all flowmeter types, can be installed in control rooms, field mount, or hazardous areas and provide traditional pulse and 4-20mA outputs or Modbus/Ethernet communication outputs for direct connection to third party supervisory systems.
