Thorite introduces NEW Technical Solutions Team


hrough a combination of excellent customer service and support, together with technical ability and appli- cations expertise, Thorite prides themselves on creating more added value for their customers. However, the con- tinuing challenge is to ensure that these key strengths are invested in and built upon.


T Alan Donkersley, Thorite’s Sales Director explains


“Thorite has always been regarded as technical experts in pneumatics, compressed air, fluid handling, and process control because our people, eit Service Centres or through our customers, are trained to a ver


years of experience. This is why……we’re different.”


component for our future grow Alan continues “Being techn


ically competent is a vital th. Customers are increas-


ingly looking beyond product price to find complete solu- tions which improve their productivity and reduce their overall costs.”

ICK has extended its portfolio of industrial instruments with the SICK T-Easic® FTS, a thermal flow switch designed as an easy, cost-saving answer to detecting liquid flow in pipes, for example in pumps, machine tool lubrication or industrial cleaning systems.


Combining both flow and temperature measurement in one IO-Link enabled sensor, the SICK T-Easic® is available in a choice of IP67 indus- trial or IP69 hygienic stainless-steel versions. or oil-based liquids, the T


Ideal for use with water T--Easic® can be set up to work with almost any


media and is suitable for use with process temperatures between -40°C and 150®C and pressures up to 100 bar.


It is therefore a versatile instrument that can be put to work moni-


toring coolants and lubricants in machine tools, for oil management in hydraulic systems, or for run protection of pumps. It is also ideal for use with Clean-in-Place and Sterilise-in- Place systems in food processing, bottling and pharmaceutical industries. With probe lengths of 60mm, 100mm and 200mm, the SICK T-


T-Easic® can be inserted in


pipes from 25mm right up to 400mm in diameter. Unlike many other thermal flow switches, the industrial version with robust VISTAL® housing features a clear OLED 180° rotatable display, making it easy to read when mounted vertically in a pipe or vessel. “The new SICK T-


T-Easic® combines economy and ease of use for essential liquid flow


detection and measurement duties, such as protecting pumps from running dry, which could otherwise cause costly damage and downtime to pump and process machinery,” says Darren Pratt, SICK’s UK product manager for “The sensor’s compression mounting adapter;


set-up, and a low-maintenance, wear-free design, all combine to make the T-Easic® an economical choice for new machinery or as a versatile replacement device to reduce inventories.”


With two digital outputs, the sensor monitors measured flow and temperature values and sends a signal to the higher-level machine control when either the high or low switch points are exceeded. On the industrial version the switch points can be adjusted via the onboard display. The measured flow rate and temperature values, as well as diagnostic data are available via the IO-Link interface.

Field Logic Controller


Multiprotocol block I/O devices that act as simple I/O devices or as stand-alone logic controllers. Field Logic Controllers can be used without a PLC in stand- alone applications, perfor


form arithmetic, timing and counting functions and share


data with a PLC.ARGEE challenges what an I/O device can do by cr eating a hybrid between simple block I/O and higher level PLCs, keeping int elligence and control local to the machine.
