Product News Archco-Rigidon Tank Lining for Cristal Hertel (UK) Ltd of Middlesbrough, part of the Hertel leading international services company, are long-term users of Winn & Coales (Denso) Ltd’s Archco-Rigidon 403D glass flake vinyl ester coatings. One of the companies that Hertel has regularly been contracted to line internal surfaces of pipework, tanks and vessels is Cristal of Immingham (formerly known as Cristal Pigments). The latest project was to line a large tank that contains an agitator for one of Cristal’s processes. Following blast cleaning at Hertel’s premises of the internal surfaces of the tank to the Sa 2½ near white metal standard, the first coat of Archco-Rigidon 403D was applied to approximately 1000 microns. A second coat was applied to 1000 microns to achieve an overall thickness of 2000 microns. A final 250 microns coat of Archco-Rigidon Blue Wax Topcoat was then applied. Final thickness readings were taken and full holiday detection was carried out to ensure the work was in line with the specification requirements. Whilst the lining work was being applied by Hertel, Cristal representatives carried out inspections of the process to confirm that the work met the specification requirements. Increase Reliability and Efficiency of your Weighing Process Even small inefficiencies can add up to big costs. Why settle for inefficient operations when you can improve overall productivity with innovative POWERCELL® technology from METTLER TOLEDO. Modern weigh modules with POWERCELL® technology help predict and diagnose issues before they even happen to avoid downtime and production problems - keeping your equipment running until repair is possible. METTLER TOLEDO’s accuracy white paper and batch-control checklist can help increase yield, reduce risks and enhance the efficiency of your weighing process. Stand-alone batch controller advantages also include: Cristal mixer tank lined with Winn & Coales’ Archco-Rigidon 403 by Hertel (UK) Tel: 020 8670 7511 Fax: 020 8761 2456 Email: denso.net www.denso.net Digi International Introduces Cellular Gateway Solution for No or Low Power Locations Digi International® (NASDAQ: DGII, www.digi.com), a leading global provider of machine-to-machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity products and services, today introduced Digi Connect Sensor, a battery-powered, enterprise-ready, cellular gateway solution for wireless connectivity at locations with either no power or low power. In offering a plug-and-play solution, Connect Sensor allows for remote sensor monitoring to be deployed in environments previously considered too harsh, remote or not economically viable. With versatility and flexibility to accommodate off-the-shelf sensors, such as flow, level, pressure and environmental conditions, the newly announced cellular gateway solution will help make sensor use ubiquitous. • Minimum raw material wastage and risk through track and trace • Legislative compliance • Consistent results • Lower costs www.mt.com/uk-SWB605-WP www.mt.com/uk-batch-checklist Accurate, Simple Batch Control Systems Minimise material wastage, ensure legislative compliance and increase batch quality and profitability by reducing under and overfilling. METTLER TOLEDO’s online video “Expert Guidance on Batching Control Systems” demonstrates how to eliminate unnecessary cost during production and improve productivity. New Vibration Core Products Catalogue from ACE Fabreeka UK Discover how the new checklist for Designing Batching Control Systems helps you improve your process explaining what should be considered with a new batching control system. You will also gain batching knowledge to maximise productivity and minimise costs in your operation. ACE and Fabreeka have come together to become the new ACE Fabreeka UK. Both of these well recognised, market leading brands are available from one highly experienced team focused on the UK motion and vibration control market. The rugged industrial batch controller IND780 can distribute to multiple controllers via ethernet connection from a single batch tool, easil y managing changes to the batch process. Built in reports provide critical batch history information to help track and trace every step of your results. The Digi Connect Sensor has immediate availability. Please visit http://www.digi.com/connectsensor for additional details. A new 104-page Fabreeka Vibration Control core products catalogue is now available, giving designers, architects and structural engineers a comprehensive, technical overview of products to solve vibration and isolation problems. In addition to a very extensive range of products, ACE Fabreeka UK will also be able to offer access to added value design and customer support services when more than just a product is necessary and a total vibration control solution is required.
