Hansford Sensors to launch industrial accelerometers


H


ansford Sensors will be exhibiting its full range of industrial accelerometers at this year’s International


Machine Vibration Analysis Conference (IMVAC) taking place in Antwerp, Belgium. The company will be unveiling its latest products, including the recently launched HS-173R tri-axial vibration sensor, capable of providing simultaneous measurement in three axes. The HS-173R is designed for use with modern route- based and stand-alone data collectors, which demand multichannel inputs from permanently or temporarily mounted vibration sensors. The device incorporates an electromechanically coupled piezo-electric sensor mechanism, protected in a stainless steel capsule, to create an extremely reliable, compact and lightweight accelerometer. This provides consistent and repeatable measurements, with excellent frequency response and a settling time of just 1.0 seconds. The HS-173R has an AC output via a standard M12


connector, is sealed to IP67 and can be used in wide range of applications at operating temperatures between -55°C and +130°C.

ittal, the leading global provider of solutions for industrial enclosures, power distribution, climate control, is offering manufacturers of small control panels and switchgear an innovative and tested power distribution system. The new RiLine Compact allows the user to mount different types of protective and switching devices onto a system, and then supply it with electrical power. Its standardised and standards-


compliant technology means it is suitable for use in control panels in both the IEC and UL markets. The system consists of a base


plate, onto which fully shock- hazard protected busbars are pre- installed. These busbars can be easily reached through a grid in the top cover.


There are various adapters that makes connections easy and quick, which in turn helps installers to mount


control and protective devices. In addition, there is an adapter to connect incoming round conductors, as well as a variety of slimline functional


modules for motor and power control. The RiLine Compact System is quick to set up, saving time and costs. The base plates and all the system’s


components can be easily and safely installed without tools. Added to which, the contact hazard protection means that the user is protected from live parts, right from the start - improving safety for users as well as the system itself.

u 01709 704000 Pump Ink with Verderflex T


he Verderflex® Rapide is a range of industrial tube pumps that provide a balanced selection of simple to operate peristaltic pumps. The family offers the customers, choices


that are compact, simple to use and require no tools during the tube change. The range has been developed to offer reliable and cost effective pumping solutions for industrial applications. Standard designs incorporate rugged aluminium pump heads with “thick- walled” tubing for increased suction lift and IP55 gear motors with both single and three phase options. The Verderflex® Rapide is an excellent, low flow dosing pump capable of handling viscous, abrasive and chemically aggressive media with total containment and leak free pumping.


In a printing process, where pumps are used to deliver inks to its printers, the pumps


use considerable amount of compressed air and require constant maintenance due to the wearable parts like seals and valves.


This could result in high repair and maintenance costs and higher and frequent down-


times. In addition to this, these pumps are required to deliver shear sensitive inks to the printers without foaming or separation.


After assessing the situation, a Verderflex R8 Peristaltic Hose pump was


recommended. With a flow rate between 170 l/hr and 470 l/hr at 2Bar, the low maintenance Verderflex R8 was perfect for this application. This pump enables the customer to save both cost and time by having high dependability and only one wearing part – the hose. With a simple clamping mechanism


Advantages of the Rapide Tube Pump:


• Compact and easy to use • Can be integrated into third party equipment such as printing presses • Designed for industrial environments including chemical, mining, printing and water treatment


• Can be used with variable frequency drives (VFDs) • enabling hose change, the pumps are easy to maintain on-site, without requiring specialist repairs. There are no seals or valves to replace, nor impellers that can become clogged.


Verderflex’s happy customers claim that Verderflex R8 is a “great pump and very


reliable”. In addition to the benefits described above, customers were delighted that Verderflex® pumps also save money on ink during setup/cleaning between jobs by being reversible. They simply pump any unused ink back into the supply after the print job is finished.
