SPRING WASHERS
Sales Manager Mark Larcher tel: (416) 510-5125
Micro Plastics introduces a new line of spring washers which are molded in an acetal material that has excellent spring properties and is lightweight The material is electrical and thermal insulating and also corrosion resistant. Acetal lubricity allows use in rotating assemblies as well as under water applications. Spring washers are used to eliminate rattles, take up tolerance variables and provide accurate spacing and tension. These may be singly, in parallel, in series or in series parallel for a wide range of deflection and load capacity. Seven sizes of spring washers are available to fit standard screws from #6 through 3/8” and metric screw sizes of M3.5 through M10.

The SLCS and SLCT Series Safety Light Curtains are available in IEC 61496-compliant Type 4 or Type 2 versions. These high resolution and ultra-slim safety light curtains reduce the safe mounting distance with respect to the point-of-operation hazard enabling them to be installed with a “built-in” look and feel, even in the most space restrictive applications. The small footprint (just 20mm wide and 30mm deep) and optional quick-release mounting bracket facilitates fast, flexible coupling. The series uses standard M12 micro connector cordsets, and feature completely integrated control electronics and solid state OSSDs for a fully self-contained two-box system that delivers simplified wiring and setup. No separate control module is necessary, nor is a synchronization cable connection required between the transmitter and receiver.

CYCLONE SEPARATOR
Cyclone Separators are used at the front end of the purification chain within compressed air systems. They are easy to operate, reliable and maintenance-free. The innovative DF-C series optimal flow-path design reduces differential pressure drop to lower energy consumption and expense. The air flow generated by the centrifugal forces of the new DF-C range leads to a more effective separation of liquid and solid contaminants from the compressed air. The DF-C is a crucial filter that noticeably protects compressed air filters, refrigeration and adsorption dryers. It operates with a very low differential pressure, which helps to lower the energy consumption of the entire compressed air system. Donaldson Company, Inc.

TUBING
Ultra High Purity fluoropolymer tubing in PFA and PVDF is a clean, flexible alternative to stainless steel. Odourless, taste-less, non-leeching or absorptive, these chemically inert tubes are designed to handle high purity applications where high temperatures and/or corrosive applications cause extractables to outgas from plastics. By selecting the Ultra High Purity PFA grade product, the impurities in the tube are kept to the lowest possible level and the burst strength is increased. In addition, with absorption of water less than 0.03%, the tubing ensures that the media passing through the tube stays in the tube and doesn’t leech into the tubing wall, thus making cleaning and sanitizing quicker.

HEAVY LIFTING EQUIPMENT boosts results for hazardous glass & glass product industry
A
ny industrial job can be hazardous, but the OSHA-tabulated rate of injuries — including major and fatal injuries — to workers in glass and glass-product manufacturing are among the highest. These dangers are well recognized at the Marvin Windows and Doors plant, where extremely large, awkward, and breakable components — including dangerous-to-handle glass sheets weighing as much as 200 pounds — are routinely assembled into door panels that can weigh as much as 500 pounds. For many years, Marvin WDT had to send coordinated teams of workers to lift, carry, position and lower these components without mechanical assistance, each person having to wrangle as much as 125135 pounds of the fragile material. The result was a steady stream of problems, CIEN web AD half-AB-CPL such as numerous back injuries and a high turnover rate. To combat these problems, Marvin WDT began redesigning and retooling its

The Pro-Flow® Series pumps are bolted so they won’t leak and their metal or plastic construction gives them the versatility to handle products with a wide range of characteristics, with a number of productfriendly elastomer options also available. “When I got here I wanted to make sure we were sizing the pumps correctly and had the right one for the product,” said Flores. “The ones we’re losing money on are top priority and then we’ll go right down the list.

A novel half-inch (12.7mm) bore instrumentation needle valve gives plant engineers the means to improve reliability and space in process and instrumentation applications involving viscous and contaminated media. Parker’s new H-series needle valve is available in two forms: as either a discrete hand valve for controlling media flow, or integrated into a monoflange-style manifold for the safe ‘double-block-and-bleed’ connection of instruments to process lines. The large flow path of the half-inch H-series needle valve makes it much less prone to blockages of related problems when dealing with viscous and contaminated media. The valve design can help process engineers achieve new levels of compactness and performance in a wide range of process and instrumentation applications.

Manufacturers and packagers of homeheated foods can now provide hermetically sealed protection against contaminants and more accurately regulate the inhome cooking process with a unique new steam valve system. The steam valve system uses a proprietary design that provides a hermetic seal when applied over a pre-cut hole in the flexible packaging or lidding film. During the cooking process, the valve opens at a predetermined temperature and allows steam to escape by exposing the structure’s slitted or perforated baffle layer. The system can be used in both microwave and oven applications. Avery Dennison

CUSTOM DOUBLE-BLOCKAND-BLEED VALVE helps pack functionality into the world’s largest chemical injection skid
A
custom compact double block and bleed valve from Parker Instrumentation is helping to reduce the size and weight of a groundbreaking skid produced for the Chevron Tahiti platform in the Gulf of Mexico. Built by Test Automation & Controls, the equipment is believed to be the largest chemical injection skid ever produced and has been designed to operate a 15,000 PSI to withstand the pressures required for operations in the Tahiti field’s deep, sub-salt reservoirs. Parker’s integrated valve provides a 15,000 PSI rated double block and bleed function. At this operating pressure, such valve configurations are usually constructed using discrete components — involving a large amount of space, extensive weight, and a large number of potential leak paths. The number of components is often made higher because the cone and thread interfaces used to make connections at these pressures are usually fitted with an additional anti-vibration
accessory, to combat the common issue of vibration-induced problems associated with threaded connections. To simplify the project, Parker Instrumentation suggested an uprated version of its single-piece 10,000 PSI double block and bleed manifold, fitted with the company’s unique 15,000 PSI rated MRP® compression tube fittings. The resulting manifold is estimated to have reduced the mounting space and weight budgets by around 50%, and replaces around nine individual components (three valves and six anti-vibration glands) — greatly reducing potential leak paths. “The size and weight reductions contributed by this manifold have helped to reduce the topside equipment budget,” says Kevin Burke of Parker Instrumentation. “The manifold also helps to eliminate threaded connections, a common source of reliability problems.” Parker Instrumentation ipdsales@parker.com, www.parker.com
