BM – a market leader in the field of test and measurement – is pleased to announce that its T22
torque transducer is now available with three new nominal (rated) torques of 0.5 Nm, 1 Nm and 2Nm, making it a cost- effective and flexible solution. Previously available for nominal (rated) torque values of
up to 1 kNm, the latest upgrade, which makes the T22 suitable for nominal (rated) torque values from 0.5 Nm to 1 kNm, opens the door to a variety of new applications. Suitable for applications in the laboratory and in end-of-line test benches, the latest upgrade now makes the T22 suitable for tests in medical engineering, bearing test benches and material and haptic tests. Providing a cost-effective solution, the T22 comes
complete with integrated electronics, which require no additional amplifier to be specified and is maintenance free.

steel wetted parts without in-channel seals or moving components, the Dosic® promises robust reliability, low maintenance and long service life for flow measurement in both conductive and non-conductive liquids, including demineralised water. Offering high-temperature resistance for stringent Clean-in-Place and Sterilisation-in- Place procedures, it carries full EHEDG certification and FDA conformity. “The SICK Dosic® is a true innovation that has enabled us to provide reliable hygienic inline measurement of both conductive and non- conductive liquids for the first time,” says Darren Pratt, SICK (UK) industrial instrumentation specialist. “With easy ‘plug and measure’ set up, the Dosic® can detect changes regardless of the medium and automatically adapt to them. Trialling in dairies, for example, has demonstrated that typical pumping/batching sequences of milk, cleaning fluids, water and cream can be interchanged without a need to change any settings in the sensor.” “The SICK Dosic® is also ideal for large-scale batch pumping and dispensation. Being so compact – you can easily hold it in a single hand – it can be used for measurement on trolley-based mobile pumps, e.g. for transfer and vat filling. The rotatable display makes it easy to mount in any orientation, for convenience.” Ideal for process applications in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries, the SICK Dosic® is also suitable for such duties as oil/water suspensions and emulsions, osmosis and filtering units, biodiesel and light and heavy oil pump metering duties.

Advanced Valve Solutions UK Ltd opens specialised Power Industry training facility in Crewe
thermal cracking and stressing became a major problem – resulting in millions of pounds in lost revenue. AVS claim that they look at the whole process and provide a tailored, bespoke product to reduce or eliminate failures and significantly extend the life expectancy of a power plant.
A
UK Director, Rik Barry explained: “we don’t simply sell valves, we sell solutions and we specialize in high pressure and high temperature applications, so the need for more thought before an offer is made is critical.”
“The demands on power stations have changed radically over the
last six years. They don’t run continuously anymore and they are required to start up and shut down as and when the demand dictates it. The reason for this is new generation technology such as wind power which can fulfil the requirements of the National Grid at certain times and reduce the need for base load stations that rarely shut down and start up,”
Their new training facility is centrally based and offers introductory subjects such as: - Control Valves; Primary Isolation Valves; Butterfly Valves; Actuation; Flow Measurement and Control; Gas Valves and Material Technology (casting & forging). Some of the courses will be run as workshops with the opportunity for ‘hands on’ learning. Additionally, industry specialists (guests) will offer a unique insight into the role that innovation has played to reduce revenue loss.
Most of the courses are offered free of charge and include refreshments and lunch.
