AUMA completes Thames
Water refurbishment in
record time
HBM – a market leader in the field of
test and measurement – is pleased
to announce the arrival of the DMP41
digital measuring amplifier, for installation in control cabinets, which is the
latest offering from its prestigious DMP range.
AUMA UK has completed a major actuator
refurbishment programme at Thames Water’s Ashford Common advanced
water treatment works. The upgrade project involved refurbishing 130
electric actuators and installing 30 new units over a nine week period,
whilst keeping the site fully operational.
Enclosed in 19-inch housing, the DMP41 is suitable for calibration and
adjustment of strain gauge based force, torque and pressure transducers,
as well as load cells and flow sensors that are calibrated using load
cells. Featuring an accuracy class of 0.005, the DMP41 guarantees
maximum precision, even in the toughest of conditions, such as industrial
environments with high EMC requirements.
Commenting on the achievement, AUMA UK Managing Director Paul

Considerable savings
for Flowplant thanks
to Invend™
Flowplant’s
operators
required
a
system that provided them with a clear
understanding of where stock is and how
it can be retrieved. Following research
into an internal solution, Flowplant
contacted Brammer after reading its
whitepaper on industrial vending which highlighted the potential savings
of between 25 and 40 per cent on consumables.
Brammer’s Invend™ allowed Flowplant to benefit from an industrial
vending machine service without the upfront cost of having to purchase
the machine. Brammer installed the Invend™ machine into Flowplant’s
factory, giving site managers a complete oversight of what is being used,
by who and how often.
“The ability to renovate a 22 year old actuator is testament to the
modular design and high quality construction of the AUMA product.
The simple single plug and socket arrangement of the AUMA actuator
means minimum downtime during actuator replacement and avoids any
possibility of introducing field wiring errors.”
