                    <description><![CDATA[Cut fitting time without any play 

Bearing specialist igus GmbH, Cologne, presented a new generation of "DryLin R" linear plain bearings "RJM" at the Hanover Trade Show. The new range "RJMP" &#8211; where "P" stands for precision &#8211; is made completely of tribo-optimised plastic. The lubricant and maintenance-free bearings help to cut fitting time significantly and have optimised clearance. 

According to igus, the motivation behind developing the "RJMP" bearings was cost reduction coupled with retaining the performance of conventional bushings. In addition, the dimensions of the new bearings correspond to those of recirculating ball bearings. 

The linear plain bearings are designed for push fit, just like ball bearings. The bearings are the secured in the H7 housing by circlips in accordance with DIN 471 or DIN 472. In comparison with lubricated metallic bearings, plastic RJMP bearings are light and corrosion-free, resistant to dirt and chemicals as well as being dry-running. These parts can also be steam cleaned. and run very quietly. with little vibration, since there are no moving parts in the product.

Last but not least, the manufacturer igus has also further improved precision in the inner diameter. The bearings have very little play - between 0.01 and 0.03 mm. "RJMP" also has good emergency running properties.

The linear plain bearings are made of the tried-and-tested plain bearing material "iglidur J". This material compound for many shafts combines extremely low friction values with a long service life. "RJMP" is available ex stock immediately with no minimum order surcharge from a batch size of one. The six sizes 10, 12, 16, 20, 25 and 30 mm diameter are initially available.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[These products may be used in any dust removal plant, where special care has to be given to the contaminant separation. 
They perfectly match the products mostly used on such type of plant.

Filter cartridges may also be manufactured with sizes other than the standard ones or according to the customer's specification. 

In a dust removal system, the filter cartridges are essential to ensure the efficiency of the entire system. 

They therefore need to have special features such as: A high filtering capacity to ensure maximum separation potential and in order to comply with even the most stringent standards, where required. 

A high degree of permeability, which translates into reduced pressure drops and therefore high energy saving potential. 

Clogging occurs infrequently, thereby guaranteeing a long working life and reduced operating costs. 

This range of filter cartridges has been designed for use in dust removal plants, where such cartridges play a basic role for the entire system. 
Special characteristics are essential in this field, as e.g. high filtration degree to assure highest efficiency in the contaminant separation, compliance with the most severe standards; high permeability as an index of low pressure drops and energy saving of the apparatus; long times before clogging to assure lower working costs. 
Custom versions may be manufactured according to the customer specification.]]></description>

                    <guid><![CDATA[http://news.directindustry.com/press/renesas-technology/renesas-releases-vde-certified-cpu-routines-for-iec60730-safety-compliance-23457-335436.html]]></guid>
                    <description><![CDATA[London / Munich, 23rd September 2009 &#8212; Renesas Technology Europe today announced that it has received VDE certification for its IEC60335-compliant self-test software for the R8C/2X family.

The latest self-test CPU software routines developed for the R8C/2X family are fully compliant with IEC60730-1 regulations and have now been certified by VDE (the German Association for Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies). VDE is widely recognized for its efforts on safety standards and approvals.

&#8221;This kind of software offers high value to any firmware developers involved in safety critical applications and appliances because the IEC-approved software is suitable for all of Renesas' R8C/2X microcontrollers," said Vincent Mignard, Renesas' marketing engineer for white goods and motor control.

In addition to the R8C's on-chip hardware safety features, the self-test CPU software makes it easier for manufacturers of industrial, motor control and home appliances to meet IEC60730-1 (IEC60335) class B safety requirements. The IEC 60730-1/60335-1 safety standards require software running on an MCU to be able to detect any safety critical failures according to specific fault models.

Renesas has been successfully certified for its periodic test routines for CPU registers and program counter test, stack test, RAM tests (using March X & C algorithms) and Flash check (using cyclic redundancy check engines).

The routines are easy to integrate in any existing software and can be called after Reset and periodically during run-time. Such software enables the developer to easily design safety relevant software and to meet the certification process quickly and with less effort. It can reduce development time and the test harness process by up to 4 months, and the cost of certification by 15%.
The software source code in C and ASM for R8C/2X is now available on the Renesas website, with detailed timing of routines, application notes and the VDE certificate.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[Tower crane manufacturer Linden Comansa launches a new version of its Flat-Top 21 LC 550. This crane, which until now had two versions -12 and 18 tonnes of maximum load- has a new variation that can load up to 24 tonnes.

This addition to the existing range is mainly due to the advances achieved by Linden Comansa during the development of the crane with highest capacity of the LC2100 Series, the 21 LC 750, with 48 tonnes of maximum load. In fact, both cranes share the same double-trolley system, composed of one rear trolley/hook and one front trolley/hook. Both can work separately or together, depending on the load requirements, and change of reeving is automatic.

As it happens on the other versions, the 21 LC 550 24 t has an 80 m reach, and a freestanding height of 86,5 meters. The maximum jib-end load is 3250 kg, it has a 65 kW hoisting system, and the hoisting drum has capacity for 650 meters of cable. A 110 kW hoist mechanism is available as an option, with drums for 650 meters or 1450 meters of cable.

Also, Linden Comansa has prepared an adaptation kit to upgrade a 21 LC 550 18 t that is already on the market to a 21 LC 550 24 t. This transformation will be easy, and cost affording for those owners who already have the version of 18 tonnes of maximum load.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[The newest generation of the proven FISCHER XDAL and XDLM x-ray spectrometers is now available. During the development process the improvement of the units` performance was focused as well as ergonomics and design.

The XDLM spectrometers with micro focus tube and proportional counter tube are ideally suited for the inspection of parts where small structures are measured. Typical applications are measurements on pc-boards, plug contacts and electronic components. XDLM spectrometers are equipped with four exchangeable apertures and a programmable XY(Z) measuring stage. This makes them ideally suited for testing mass-produced parts.

The XDAL spectrometers with silicon PIN detectors provide reliable analysis results and coating thickness readings even with small concentration and very thin coatings. With their fast and highly precise XY(Z) measuring stage, they are ideally suited for automated sample measurements.

The XDAL and XDLM spectrometers have an excellent long-term stability, which is reflected in a significantly reduced calibration effort, among other things.
Using the FISCHER fundamental parameter method, coating systems as well as solid and liquid samples can be analyzed standard-free.

The new instruments are now available at all FISCHER offices.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[Co-generation by Bio Digestion is one of the areas of growth and development in many parts of the world.  Waste water Treatment sites can re-use their sludges, and not only reduce the land fill but save energy and reduce their carbon footprint.  A real win win situation.

However, there are still lots of areas where the technologies can be improved and enhanced. Overall there is a need for more knowledge about sludge behaviour.  Chemineer has recently been  involved in research into Sludge Rheology.  

Top entry mixers are a good design selection as they require a low power per unit volume than other options.  This makes the process more efficient.

We have obtained data, which now allow us to design with a greater degree of confidence. Chemineer has for many years had the design tools to correctly design the mixer, but we were always limited by the available process data.

Chemineer's Process Design Tools

Chemineer has developed over the last 50 years expert design software, which has the ability to model up complex process problems such as Non Newtonian fluids.  This design tool allows us to predict how fluid motion is affected by the sludge rheology, to prevent dead areas being left in the tank.  Our process knowledge takes the risk out of the design and saves on costly post commissioning corrective works.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[The latest arrival in the SmartDate® product line, the SmartDate 5/128 thermal transfer coder, prints large amounts of complex information on flexible packaging films. Its main advantage is the extended print area; up to 128 mm wide and 75 mm long on intermittent filling machines, and up to 150 mm long on continuous filling machines. The SmartDate® 5/128 delivers a new level of efficiency in wide format printing of information ranging from multi-pack applications to ingredient lists and nutritional statements. As with all SmartDate 5 coders, the latest addition to the SmartDate 5 family also offers up to 300 dpi print quality. 
	
Markem-Imaje's family of SmartDate® thermal transfer coders combines a robust design built for industrial applications, no known wear parts requiring preventative maintenance, high speeds and increased economy for printing solutions to suit a variety of needs.

The standard SmartDate 5 delivers performance and flexibility in printing. It comes readily configurable between intermittent and continuous mode and between left- and right-handed operations capable of speeds of up to 1000 mm per second.

To prevent the loss of prints that can occur in high-speed wrapping lines subject to challenging speed profiles (where rapid acceleration and deceleration result in a very brief span of slow speeds), the SmartDate 5 coder is capable of printing consistently at speeds as low as 5 mm per second. Additionally, the SmartDate 5 can successfully meet the acceleration rates created with the new &#8220;no product-no film&#8221; option on packaging equipment.

The SmartDate 5 also cuts operating costs on consumables. Markem-Imaje has pioneered a ribbon-saving feature to shrink the gap between prints to just 0.5 mm, allowing up to ten percent more prints from the same print ribbon. Additionally, there are a variety of ribbon saving options available to further help reduce the cost of ownership.

 &#8220;With tens of thousands of successful installations behind us, we've learned that customers are looking for advanced capabilities and a more tailored approach to bring additional efficiency to their coding process,&#8221; explained Andy Gray, Markem-Imaje Product Marketing Manager.

A controller with a full color touch-screen is an option available on the SmartDate 5. The icon-driven menu guides the operator through set-up and procedures while clearly displaying the selected images to avoid errors and ensure correct and efficient coding in the production run from beginning to end. Users can still opt for the classic controller design, with its monochrome graphic display, since the two options are interchangeable. With regard to networking, others who prefer to integrate the coder controls with the controls of the parent packaging line can also do so by using web browser technology to guide the entire line from a single control point.

Remote code management is also an option for the SmartDate 5 Series. The coder allows for easy connectivity with third-party equipment and devices and the ability to source images and data from a PC or factory ERP system. Coding images can be created using CoLOS Create® and downloaded to the coder from the network or a USB memory device. Production data can also be uploaded for analysis and auditing.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[For universal use in the widest range of applications Schroff has developed the new maxpower MAX180 family of 19" PSUs with a rated output capacity of 180 W. The new PSU family replaces the ecopower SEG single switched-mode AC/DC range. Retaining full compatibility, the output rating has been increased from 130 W to 180 W. At the same time the size of the unit has been reduced by a third. Despite a substantially higher output capacity the new 19" PSU is highly compact at 3 U, 8 HP and 
a depth of 160 mm. 

Increasing the efficiency of the unit from 83 % to 88 % has allowed a significant increase in power density. The input voltage range of the maxpower MAX180 family is 90 VAC to 254 VAC, making the devices useable worldwide. The output voltages of 5 V, 12 V, 15 V or 24 V are covered by four models. New technology has reduced power loss and thus the device produces less heat. It is now designed for convection cooling in an ambient temperature range of -25 °C to +50 °C. It can also be used at up to 70 °C at reduced load. 

When multiple PSUs are parallel connected for redundancy operation (n+1) the current-share bus assures uniform current sharing between the individual devices. The PSUs also features integrated output decoupling. Operating status is indicated via a front-mounted LED and an "output OK" signal on the connector.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[... and ultra-low positional noise

Renishaw, a world leader in measurement and encoder technology, is introducing new 1 nm and 2 nm resolution versions of its successful TONiC&#8482; incremental encoder range. Available in linear encoder and rotary encoder formats, the new higher resolution options comprise a standard TONiC readhead and new Ti20KD (1 nm) or Ti10KD (2 nm) interfaces that apply high interpolation rates to achieve very fine resolution. Furthermore, TONiC's low-noise optical scheme with superior photometry has been combined with advanced filtering inside the Ti20KD / Ti10KD interfaces to reduce the jitter (noise on reported position) to an impressively low level of just 0.51 nm RMS.

Significantly enhanced positional stability
The reduced jitter and increased resolution result in an encoder that provides significantly enhanced positional stability and low-speed velocity control. This improvement is additional to the benefits of the dynamic signal conditioning included as standard on all TONiC readheads.

As a result, 1 nm and 2 nm TONiC incremental encoders offer all the benefits of a 20 micron pitch encoder, such as easy set-up, greater ruggedness and superior dirt immunity, yet they also rival the resolution and noise levels of much finer pitch encoders.

Variety of linear and rotary scales available
The linear encoder version of TONiC is available with a comprehensive range of scale options. RGSZ is the latest evolution of Renishaw's ubiquitous gold tape scale, now with integral IN-TRAC&#8482; optical reference marks. RELM Invar® spars offer &#8220;zero&#8221; thermal expansion and ±1 µm accuracy on lengths up to 1130 mm, whilst for high performance on long axes and significantly more robustness than glass scales, RSLM stainless steel spars have a total accuracy of ±4 µm over 5 m, with lengths up to 10 m available. Additionally, for very fast and easy installation, the new FASTRACK&#8482; linear encoder scale system comes with low-profile RTLC tape scale, offering ±5 µm/m accuracy.

Rotary (angle) encoder options are also well served, with RESM rings in a range of standard diameters from 52 mm to 550 mm, with even larger sizes available. For even higher performance, ultra-high accuracy REXM ring encoders have a total installed accuracy better than ±1 arc second on ring diameters greater than 100 mm, when used with dual readheads.

The interfaces have been named after their interpolation factors: Ti20KD refers to 20k digital interpolation (post-quadrature), which equates to 1 nm resolution.

As with all Renishaw encoders, TONiC incremental encoders are backed by a truly responsive global sales and support network. Furthermore the product satisfies the highest environmental standards, with both WEEE and RoHS compliance.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[One of the largest independent processors of natural gas and natural gas liquids in North America was in search of new technologies to maintain the pollution control efficiency at their natural gas treatment facility.  

In typical gas plants, the well head natural gas needs to be treated to remove water, CO2, any sulfur compounds and heavy hydrocarbons before it is sent to the pipeline. The acid gases formed by CO2 and H2S are normally removed by amine adsorption. The amine must then be stripped of these acid gases in order to be reused. The amine stripper off gas (tail gas) needs to be treated before discharge to atmosphere to remove residual hydrocarbons and meet EPA regulations.

Gas and oil plants have historically used direct-fired thermal oxidizers with no heat recovery for tail gas treatment. The existing thermal oxidizer at this facility was using a considerable amount of auxiliary fuel to maintain temperatures of 1,500°F, ensuring all the organics were combusted but costing them a significant amount of money in operating costs. 

Anguil offered their Model 75 (7,500SCFM) Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO). With the two-bed RTO, the contaminated process gas is pre-heated as it passes through beds of ceramic media located in the energy recovery chambers. The process gas moves from the pre-heat chamber toward the combustion chamber, where the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are oxidized, releasing energy into the second energy recovery chamber before going to atmosphere. A diverter valve switches the process gas direction so both energy recovery beds are fully utilized, thereby reducing any auxiliary fuel requirement.  This system is self-sustaining, requiring little auxiliary fuel use. 

The RTO is designed to prevent corrosion by the acid gases and to handle the high organic loading with low oxygen levels. The gas at this facility is "sweet" and does not contain any H2S but precautions were taken to prevent carbonic acid attack due to the CO2..  In addition, Anguil provided a Class 1, Division 2, Group D control package. Heated, fresh air was also introduced into the system, providing supplemental oxygen without condensing moisture in the process stream. 

The Anguil RTO is achieving 99% DRE (Destruction Rate Efficiency) and is expected to save the customer $500,000 per year in natural gas cost over the direct-fired thermal oxidizer.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[When using Lessmann microabrasive interior brushes, burrs and transition sections in complex work pieces can be reached effortless and effectively. 
Interior brushes with abrasive filament are very suitable for deburring bores, cross bores, o-ring recesses and for polishing and cleaning nozzles or small bores. Typical working parts which are treated with the brushes are for example injection pumps, hydraulic control valves, break fluid systems, plastic spraying nozzles or other precision parts with narrow bore sections.

Upon request of the customer interior brushes are produced either with a milled or grinded surface. Additionally the brushes can be endued with specific shapes and they can be produced with a stepped cut. Hence stepped bore diameters can be treated in only one production step. 
With a shaft extension also very deep drill depths are possible to reach. 
The standard length of the brushes is 125 mm, the brush diameter is 3.2 mm to 32 mm with a filling length of 65 mm. Deviant measurements are available on demand.   

Abrasive filaments are available with aluminium oxide or silicon carbide in variable grit sizes. The user can choose a grit of K 60 to K 600 depending on the application. 
New in the Lessmann product range are interior brushes with diamond coated steel wires. The ends of the wires of those brushes are accumulated with diamond particles during a galvanic process.  As a result the brushes are very aggressive and are suitable for the treatment of extremely hard materials. A typical application for those diamond impregnated brushes is the defined rounding of bore crossings in hydraulic pipes of pumps or crankcases.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[RK Rose+Krieger presented the new BLOCAN® cable channel system in anodized aluminium for the first time at this year's MOTEK.
The cover on the cable channel is removable and can also be rotated by up to 90° if required. 

Elastic strips, available as an optional accessory, can be used to keep the open cover in any position. This allows the cover to remain attached to the cable channel.. If the cable channel is installed horizontally (wall-mounted), the cover opening downwards ,will remain in a horizontal position, this allowing it to be used as a surface for pre-assembling cables and hoses. 

This is a novel function for industrial applications. Other optional accessories include separators which can slotted into the cable channel to separate hoses, signal lines or power cables. The manufacturer has also considered how the installation of different kinds of cable assemblies can be simplified. 

A flexible assembly rail prevents the installed cables from falling out but can be opened up at any time for further installations. The simple overhead mounting is also well worth mentioning.
The cable channels are available in sizes 40, 40x80 and 80x40, and in lengths of up to 6 metres or cut to size.

The cable channels are also available with fixing holes &#8211; a novelty for aluminium cable channels. These can be connected very quickly to a BLOCAN profile slot via a pivotable assembly clip.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[CompAir has extended its portfolio of variable speed compressors with the launch of seven new models and offers a comprehensive range of energy efficient variable speed rotary screw machines from 11kW to 250kW.

Energy-efficiency has been considered at every stage of the design of the new L11VS to L18VS range to ensure that the machines can meet the wide variation in air demand necessary in modern processes. Each compressor features a variable speed drive that helps to minimise energy use, as the unit produces the right volume of air required by the factory network at all times.

A compressor with a greater range of volume output is generally more cost efficient to operate as the machine will automatically adjust, or &#8216;turndown' its flow rate to the most economic level.  Therefore, each machine in the new range is engineered to offer excellent performance, with a volume flow turndown that is considered to be up to 17% greater than other comparable compressors.  

With a compressor that has a limited flow range, the machine will typically go in to off load mode when it reaches its minimum flow.  This is both inefficient and costly as the compressor continues to run, thereby consuming energy, with no output. In addition, the motor will be forced to stop and restart, putting additional wear on components and increasing overall cost of ownership through increased maintenance and energy consumption.

In contrast, CompAir's L11 VS machine for example, can continue running at as little as 10% flow at 7 bar pressure, for maximum flexibility of operation and greater control over air usage.

The range is available in two frame sizes with a low noise level from 65-70 dB(A). This allows the compressor to be sited at the point of use, saving time and cost as there is no need to house the unit in a separate room or install additional pipework. 

Each unit is supplied with the AirSmart controller. This provides an easy-to-read plain text display and simple controls that enable users to monitor important compressor parameters and carry out diagnostic checks such as oil life expectancy and energy usage.

CompAir also offers a wide range of optional extras, allowing users to tailor the compressor installation to suit requirements. These can include a built-in dryer, which does not increase the overall package dimensions. With the dew point controlled by AirSmart, this removes the need for a separate dryer control system, to save installation cost.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[The Daisy oil pump is poised to apply time tested seal-less pump technology to oil transfer in a wide range of applications. 
The design draws from a long history of pump successes from
Micropump to Transportation Research Corp.
Now VARNA Products introduces the Daisy Pump with the same sealless technology that has proven itself for decades in applications from as small as a trickle of coffee to as large as a
locomotive. The Daisy pump is designed for reliability measured in decades without any maintenance or need for overhaul.
Features:
&#8226; Complete assembly of motor and pump that won't leak - Completely sealed for
washdown and wet environments.
&#8226; Requires no scheduled maintenance
&#8226; Prewired 208/230 3-phase motor (460VAC available from factory)
&#8226; Flow up to 2000 liters/hr (9 gpm)
&#8226; Pressure up to 4 bar (60psi) rise
&#8226; Continuous duty
&#8226; Preloaded rolling contact bearings
&#8226; Internally cooled and cannot overheat, when there is some external flow
&#8226; Reversible &#8211; Switch any two lead wires
&#8226; Performs equally well turning in either direction
&#8226; Can deliver oil of almost any viscosity
Applications:
&#8226; Draining and filling engine sumps and reservoirs
&#8226; Prelubing diesel engines for long life between costly overhauls
&#8226; Transferring oil &#8211; back and forth and at different elevations
&#8226; Finishing and polishing of stored diesel fuel and other oil
&#8226; Ink jet carpet printing
&#8226; Filling and bottling plants and production lines
&#8226; Silent oil cooling of X-ray equipment in hospitals
&#8226; Pumping hydraulic oil through heat exchangers for cooling
&#8226; Pumping through filters for cleaning

The Daisy Pump Performs!
&#8226; You can trust it to be there whenever you turn it on.
&#8226; You can trust it to run as long as you leave it on. &#8211; for years if desired.
&#8226; You can trust it do this without any need for maintenance or spare parts.
&#8226; You can throttle the flow down from 9 gpm to zero routinely with no trouble.
&#8226; It can never leak.
&#8226; It is submersible. &#8211; wash-down or flooded.
&#8226; It is self-priming and runs in either direction.
&#8226; It runs quietly, and is prewired for 208/230V, 3-phase AC power.
Use it aboard yachts and work boats for:
 Fuel management and fuel polishing.
 Engine oil pan draining and refilling.
 Prelubing and postlubing large diesel engines.
 Any other oil management process required on board or elsewhere.
The Daisy oil pump integrates the motor and the pump into one unit that is completely sealed
including the oil connections, which are standard SAE Straight Thread O-ring sealed ports. Oil
bleeds slowly into the sealed motor for positive cooling of the motor and returns through a
system of check valves to the suction side of the pump, whichever way the pump is turning. Fuel
pumps of this nature have been in service for years in diesel-electric locomotives. The Daisy's
pressure relief bypass is inherent in the design of the unit and involves no extra parts. The
bearing preload spring responds to pump pressure and when the pressure force exceeds the
bearing preload force, the pump rotor is allowed to move axially. This opens up the end seal of
the pump and bypasses the flow.
The Daisy's unitary design is cost-effective. It also eliminates all the parts and labor required for
assembling the standard adapter and shaft coupling required for connecting an off-the-shelf
motor to an off-the-shelf pump. Varna's CNC manufacturing technology further assures that all
pumps manufactured are exactly alike as to quality.
The Daisy will be produced in two models. Although both models are reversible, one will
include a reversing switch and one will not. For applications that do not require reversing or that
require special controls for other reasons, the lower cost Daisy-I without the built-in reversing
switch will be more economical. Otherwise the Daisy-II provides a rotary switch that is
designed for confidence and control. Both models are pre-wired and include a 6 ft cord and plug
for connection to 3-phase 208/230VAC power.
The Daisy Oil Pump will be offered for sale at a promotional price of $849.00 with no
reversing switch, saving $556.00 off the list price. The promotional price with a reversing
switch is $994.00, saving $662.00 off of list price.

                    <description><![CDATA[Turck's new insusceptible position sensor can replace magnetostrictive and potentiometric solutions 

For the first time ever Turck combines the benefits of magnetostrictive and potentiometric solution with ist new series of linear displacement sensors. The new LI-Q25 series is an interference-free solution for measuring ranges between 100 and 1000 mm. The analog sensors provide a 1 µm resolution (repeat accuracy: 25 µm) and are specially suited for applications that could not otherwise be solved efficiently due to technical restrictions, such as metal-processing machines, rolling mills or injection molding machines. 
The IP67-rated sensors Turck will present at the SPS trade show are based on the resonator principle. Unlike magnetostrictive or magnetic inductive position sensors, the LI-Q25 does not require a magnetic positioning device. Instead, the position is detected via a resonant circuit. In this way, splinter accumulations that can affect the sensor's function are eliminated. Moreover, having a completely sealed housing prevents dirt or dampness from affecting the rugged sensor. 

Because of the specially designed coil-system, the output signal is not affected by the distance between the sensor and the positioning device. In this way, measuring errors caused by minor deviations can be prevented &#8211; significantly increasing process reliability. Different output configurations (0 to 10 V, 4 to 20 mA, IO-Link, SSI) and optional mounting accessories additionally increase the sensor's applicability.]]></description>

                    <description><![CDATA[Spirol Industries has expanded its range of Disc Springs with the addition of new
stainless steel versions.  Although stainless steel is not part of the DIN 2093 standard, all the disc springs produced by Spirol are controlled to that exacting level.

Two types of stainless steel Disc Springs are now available.  The new austenitic stainless steel version, X10CrNi18-8 (1.4310), is ideal for low cycle applications and is
available as a standard product.  For high cycle applications, Spirol now also offers to special customer order the precipitation hardened X7CrNiAl17-7 (1.4568) Disc Spring.  
Both have excellent corrosion resistance. 
 
Disc Springs are conically-shaped, washer-type components designed to be axially loaded.  They can be continuously or intermittently statically loaded as well as dynamically subjected to continuous load cycling.  They can be used singularly or in multiples - stacked parallel, in series or in combination.

                    <description><![CDATA[This extraction and filter unit with a Ø100 mm connector provides the possibility of centrally extracting the contaminated air directly from where it is generated. Different workstations
can be connected and exhausted centrally using piping systems.

The system is equipped with a side channel compressor that remains effective even under extreme conditions.

The system can be used in almost any metalworking application. It is especially flexible when used with welding torches with integrated extraction and makes an updating of the extraction elements unnecessary. Naturally, all sorts of nozzles, highvacuum exhaust arms or suction shields from the extensive range of accessories can be attached.

The rugged device has a 10 m² KemTex® ePTFE membrane filter cartridge, monitored by the electronic control system and, depending on the saturation level; it is automatically cleaned during operation. This is carried out by means of compressed air using a rotating nozzle.

The compressed air tank for this is also built-in, as is a large 40-liter dust collector.

The KEMPER high-vacuum extraction and filter unit is equipped with an automatic start / stop. With optional start / stop clamps, the high-vacuum extraction and filter unit can be switched on or off at four different locations.

Included with the unit:
Extraction plant with 16 A CEE socket, side channel compressor and start-/ stop module]]></description>
