Compound mag meter

The Fluid Equipment Co. has begun offering a new compound mag meter in sizes from 3" to 24". The meter uses modern electromagnetic flow technology to measure very low to very high water flows. The meter can datalog flows and interfaces with AMR systems. It features a built-in self test mechanism that provides flow verification.

Multiparameter tester

The portable Oakton multiparameter Testr 35-series meters can be used both in the laboratory and the field. The waterproof, pocket-sized meters have long-life pH electrodes and stainless steel conductivity sensors for a wider range of sample compatibility. Easy-to-replace sensor modules allow users to reuse the meter body. Just dip, measure, and scan through up to five parameters with the push of a button. No complicated operating procedures and no need to change sensors for different measurements. These meters offer multiple calibration options—choose single or multipoint, automatic or manual. Measure conductivity or TDS more accurately at varying temperatures with an adjustable temperature coefficient feature. Auto-ranging feature makes it more convenient for users with applications across broad measurement ranges.

Ceramic diffusers

Diffusers made of Refractron aluminum oxide porous ceramic achieve high diffusion and sparging efficiencies, and then stand up to chemicals and gasses that destroy most non-ceramic materials. The ceramic diffusers are made by fusing aluminum oxide grains using a porcelain bond for a strong, uniformly porous and homogeneous structure. Diffuser shapes include 2.5" tubes, 7" and 9" discs, 12" square plates and the company’s patented 7" Solidome. Typical applications include aeration in municipal wastewater plants. The diffusers are inert to the strong oxidizing effects of ozone, making them an excellent choice for ozone diffusion for drinking water.

Flow meter

With its multi-point flow measurement technology, the Multi-Mag Flow Meter from McCrometer offers accuracy over a wide flow range under conditions that include the presence of sand and grit in converting raw ground water to potable drinking water. The meter measures liquid volumetric flow rates in pipes sized from 4" to 120" with a streamlined multi-point technology that creates only negligible pressure loss. It is also available for 1-, 2- and 3-inch taps. Featuring an insertable electromagnetic averaging design, the meter measures volumetric flow with accuracy up to ±1% of reading (from 0 to +20 feet/second + zero stability) and repeatability at 0.20 percent of the flow range.

Phase converters

Phase-A-Matic phase converters range from 1/3 to 500 HP or more. The converters are used when three-phase lines are not available or are cost prohibitive. Advances in converter technology have resulted in low price, high performance and reliability closely resembling three-phase line power. This enables the company to power virtually any three-phase application. The company’s Rotary Converter full power line is a true phase converter jointly developed with Baldor Electric Company. The converter is used when full power is required to run the most demanding applications and equipment. Professional technical support for proper sizing and installation is available.

Gas detector

Ridgid® has introduced the new Micro CG-100™ combustible gas sniffer that quickly and accurately detects gas leakage. Offering unique Tri-Mode Detection™, an operator is alerted to the presence of combustible gas with a visible signal, audible alarm or silent vibration. The sniffer can detect low levels of methane (including natural gas), propane, butane, ammonia, and many other combustible gases. It is ideal for users who work in maintenance or for utilities. The silent vibration alert vibrates more frequently as the user gets closer to gas, and is ideal for noisy daytime construction environments and to avoid unnecessary alarm. The gas sniffer can be adjusted to high- or low-level sensitivity within a wide overall range (40 ppm to 6400 ppm for methane). These features help users more quickly and easily locate both smaller and larger leaks.
