This valve series
has been expanded
Now available in ½- to 36-in. sizes,
the Pacific Wedgeplug valves range
has been expanded to increase the
breadth of solutions for users in the
petroleum refining, petrochemical
and power generation industries.
The valve's unique design offers
users a number of benefits, including
increased return-on-investment:
when not actuating, Pacific Wedgeplug
consumes no steam, resulting
in low steam usage and operational
savings. The valves are designed to
ASME B16.34, API Standard 599
and API Standard 600, where applicable.
Testing is to API Standard
598. Special hydrostatic testing
and non-destructive examinations
are available. - Crane

Serial device servers
for extreme applications
This company has extended its FL
COM-Server serial device server
product range (photo) with two special
versions with an extended temperature
and supply voltage range. COM
servers enable devices with serial
interfaces to be smoothly integrated
into Ethernet networks. The two new
models are suitable for temperature
ranges from -40 to 70°C and offer a
supply voltage range from 12 to 30 V
(a.c. or d.c.) The devices enable easy
configuration via Web-based management.

An enhanced application for
virtulization environments
With the release of DeltaV Virtual
Studio v2.3, this company
expands the virtualization
capabilities in its
DeltaV distributed control
system (DCS) for easy
implementation and management
of on-line production
and off-line development, test
and training systems. While many
large manufacturing companies
have used virtualization for years
in their IT departments, DeltaV Virtual
Studio is designed specifically
for process control systems, with a
workflow and feature set that is intuitive
and familiar to automation
engineers. The latest DeltaV Virtual
Studio release includes enhanced
high availability and disaster recovery
options. - Emerson Process

An infrared pyrometer with thermal
imaging capabilities
The ISR 6-TI Advanced pyrometer
uses a built-in video camera
with infrared (IR) filter to improve
manufacturing processes in metals,
glass and other heat-dependent
manufacturing industries. The ISR
6-TI Advanced is said to be a true
breakthrough by combining pyrometry
with IR-imaging technology to
produce " relative " thermal images.
Relative thermal images are produced
by measuring the temperature
of the center spot with a ratio
pyrometer and using an IR filter to
show an auto-calibrated thermal
image based on the highly accurate
ratio pyrometer temperature reading.
The system provides accurate
and reliable temperature measurements
between 700 and 1,800°C.
The analog video output signal is
converted to USB and fed to a PC
using the company's InfraWin software,
which generates and shows a
" relative " thermal image from this
signal. - LumaSense Technologies,
Inc., Santa Clara, Calif.
