Isolator rings
Rubber lined Isolator Rings from Onyx Valve are an easy, reliable way to measure pressure on slurries, wastewater, sludge or any hard-to-handle fluid. They can be combined with virtually any pressure gauge, switch, or transmitter. Or, up to three instruments can be mounted on a single isolator ring. Guaranteed to never clog or plug, the patented Module Seal and integral block valve makes it easy to replace or repair the pressure instruments without removing the ring itself from the process pipe.

Temperature, level, conductivity monitor
The Model 107 TLC Meter from Solinst provides accurate, stable temperature and conductivity measurements, displayed on a convenient LCD display for easy reading. Static water level and depth of readings are read off Solinst PVDF flat tape, which is precisely laser-marked every 1/100 feet or millimeter. Tape lengths are available up to 1000 feet (300 meters). The TLC Meter is ideal for providing a general indication of contamination levels.

Modeling solution
The V7.0 Generation of InfoWorks ICM from Innovyze is a comprehensive urban drainage modeling solution. Dynamic integration of one-dimensional (1D) hydrodynamic simulation of flows in rivers, open channels and pipe networks and two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic simulation of surface flooding in the urban environment and river floodplain provide a powerful solution for simultaneously modeling underground and aboveground elements of catchments to accurately represent all flow paths. The software also takes interactions of natural and man-made environments into account, and effectively simulates the impact of polluting runoff and effluent from urban areas on water quality.

Anti-fouling membrane
LG Water Solutions, part of LG Chem, has released a new anti-fouling (AF) brackish water RO membrane to its product catalog. The new LG BW 400 AFR boasts a proprietary chemistry that reduces performance deterioration due to organic and biological fouling, a common problem in various water treatment applications. The AF formulation obtains anti-fouling performance without losing the highly permeable nature of the membrane’s surface. This makes the LG BW 400 AFR ideally suited for applications with high fouling potential such as wastewater reuse and reclamation, industrial wastewater treatment, and RO brine recovery.

Rechargeable handheld light
Larson Electronics’ RL-11 rechargeable handheld HID light is a lightweight, ultra-rugged, ergonomic handheld light that operates for 90 minutes on a single charge of its 14.4-volt lithium-ion battery. The 35-watt, high-intensity discharge lamp produces a 3,500 lumen light beam capable of reaching distances up to 3,000 feet. A snap-on diffuser lens transforms this unit to a flood configuration producing a 200’ x 200’ light beam for close, wide-area illumination. This HID light is weatherproof and water and dust resistant.

Threaded isolation rings
Ashcroft has introduced the Type 82 threaded isolation ring. Equipped with 1/2 to 2 NPT threaded pipe connections, it is designed for smaller piping applications too narrow to accommodate an internal isolation ring. Also referred to as a “barrel seal,” this economical flow-through design eliminates traps where clogs can form, thereby reducing the need for frequent maintenance. A smooth, flexible wall expands under pressure to displace isolated fill fluid into the measurement device. A choice of internal elastomer materials, fill fluids and housing materials (including 316 stainless steel) ensure compatibility with a wide range of process media and environmental conditions.

Safety rope pull switches
The OMEGA® GLHD Series of safety rope switches are designed to mount on machines and sections of conveyors which cannot be protected by guards. These stainless steel heavy-duty switches will protect long conveyor lengths up to 250 m (820’). Unlike traditional mushroom head type emergency stop buttons, the GLHD Series of safety rope switches can initiate the emergency command from any point along the installed rope length and provide robust emergency stop, rope pull protection for exposed conveyors or machines. All GLHD switches conform to ISO13850 and EN60947-5-5 and can survive indoor or outdoor use including washdown NEMA 6 (IP67) rating.

Nitrate removal
Ionex SG’s nitrate removal system, the IX-N™ system, reduces brine waste volumes from the typical two percent range of traditional systems to less than 0.5 percent of drinking water produced. A proprietary Selective Regeneration™ method isolates the nitrates into a vastly smaller volume than what’s possible with standard ion exchange regeneration methods while optimizing safe components for reuse. The combination of the patented regeneration technique and Ionex SG’s end-to-end waste management/disposal services delivers a robust nitrate removal system with lifecycle costs that are 10 times lower than standard ion exchange treatment systems.

Rugged notebook
The DURABOOK SA14 rugged notebook from GammaTech is built tough to ensure the reliability and performance that water crews working in the field need. It meets or exceeds the most difficult environmental specifications, including: MIL-STD-810G for drop and vibration resistance; IP5X for dust and water resistance; and more. With optional office and vehicle docks, the SA14 is versatile and portable. It gives field engineers the information they need while its wireless connectivity capabilities increase productivity and efficiency with peers back in the office. With two battery packs, the SA14 can run up to 12 hours.

Two-way bellows control valve
The new Type 2380 two-way bellows control valve from Bürkert is a pneumatically actuated process valve with a single-action membrane drive. A PTFE bellows ensures the reliable separation of the media from the drive. The hygienic valve is ideal for demanding control tasks with small flow rates for which membrane valves are not suitable. Available in diameters from DN6 to DN20, the valve can be combined with seat diameters from 3 mm to 10 mm. The space-saving drive has a low internal volume, resulting in a compact design and short response times.

Sensor technology
Sensorex has expanded its SD7000 family of Differential pH/ORP Sensors, adding four new models to suit a wider range of online process monitoring applications. The three-electrode differential sensor design results in less maintenance for operators, minimized downtime, longer sensor life and overall greater reliability. Process pH or ORP is measured differentially with process and protected inner reference electrodes, compared to a third ground electrode. The inner reference electrode is surrounded by a known concentrated pH 7 buffer that resists process contamination, maintaining its pH level with minimal dilution effects. A double junction salt bridge further guards against contamination.

System-wide monitoring
The Sentinel™ PRO remote monitoring system can interface with any water/wastewater processing equipment that uses a programmable logic controller (PLC) with Modbus sensors. The system monitors, delivers alarms and logs data input/output points from third-party Modbus sensors, transducers and PLCs. It supports Modbus RTU/485 and Modbus TCP. The system interacts with all existing sensors within a facility and provides operators with on-demand, real-time status and data acquisition from any Internet connected device. Only one Sentinel PRO unit is required to monitor up to 64 Modbus registers or 12 different digital or analog status conditions at remote pump stations and tank farms.
