Market trends in online water analysis
15 September, 2014 by Chris Hoey, Bürkert Fluid Control SystemsThe growth in automation, communication and SCADA technologies has driven the market towards real-time information. For water analysis, this means online instruments rather than sampling and laboratory-based testing. In this article, Chris Hoey from Bürkert Fluid Control Systems discusses the market drivers for municipal applications, as well as those for the food and beverage industry.
Big data - smart water
10 September, 2014'Big data' represents real opportunities for the water industry and this is driving investment in smart-water technologies. As the cost of storing data has reduced and collection of data has become easier, the mining of structured, semi-structured and unstructured data is paying dividends.
AMS to distribute optek instrumentation
01 September, 2014AMS Instrumentation & Calibration has been appointed the exclusive distributor for the optek range of analytical instrumentation in its territories.
Dwyer Series PFT paddlewheel flow sensor
31 August, 2014The Series PFT is a paddlewheel flow sensor used to monitor liquid flow rates in pipes from 1-1/2 to 40″ with just one size adjustable sensor. Multiple wetted material choices offer application versatility.
Wallace & Tiernan Analysers Chloroclam water-quality and pressure monitor
20 August, 2014The Chloroclam water-quality monitor accesses the water main via the hydrant point or service pit, to continually monitor and report chlorine residual data from the water distribution network enabling proactive management.
Keller M5 series sensors for static and highly dynamic measurements
30 July, 2014Keller has released the M5 series sensors for static and highly dynamic measurements. The rear of the silicon sensor is soldered to a supporting element designed for good fluid dynamics, which in turn is secured flush at the front of the pressure connection.
Keller Series DCX-22 CTD level data loggers
29 July, 2014With the CTD (conductivity, temperature, depth) versions of the high-precision DCX level data loggers for depths of up to 200 m, Keller offers an integrated pressure measurement solution for water management. The data logger for long-term monitoring stores over 50,000 time-stamped level measurements, as well as the associated conductivity and temperature readings.
Keller DCX data loggers for hydrostatic level measurements
28 July, 2014Keller offers probes to monitor groundwater levels and filling levels in tanks that can be used under a wide range of conditions. The probes provide fully autonomous operation or they can be used with an integrated data logger, wireless transmission (GSM), ambient pressure-compensating capillary or a separate absolute pressure sensor.
Keller titanium pressure transmitters and pressure sensors
27 July, 2014Keller offers titanium versions of its products for use in heavily corrosive media. The company has developed an implantable sensor made of titanium, offering a host of advantages for applications under special conditions.
KELLER LEO 1 digital pressure peak gauge
26 July, 2014KELLER has released the LEO 1, a microprocessor-controlled digital pressure peak gauge which polls the value for the pressure variable in a process 5000 times each second. This results in detection of short pressure peaks, usually caused by fast-switching hydraulic valves and pump units, and means action can be taken to prevent damage.
Keller Series PRD-33 X differential pressure transmitter with double sensor
25 July, 2014Keller is launching the Series PRD-33 X, a differential pressure transmitter suitable for measuring the levels in liquefied gas tanks safely. The product has two independent sensors and measures the line pressure as well as the differential pressure.
Keller Series 4 LD digital combination transmitter
24 July, 2014Keller has launched a fully functional digital combination transmitter for pressure and temperature. In the LD series, all the electronic components are accommodated in a laser-welded stainless steel housing filled with silicone oil.
Keller Series 4 LC...9 LC pressure transmitters
23 July, 2014The Keller Series 4 LC to 9 LC pressure transmitters offer two output signals: a ratiometric analog voltage output and a digital inter-integrated circuit interface (I2C). The ratiometric signal eliminates the need for a voltage reference in the support electronics to the A/D converter.
Hach DR1900 portable spectrophotometer
11 July, 2014The Hach DR1900 is a light and compact portable spectrophotometer that has been designed for accurate field testing.
