This data-acquisition system is
updated for EtherNet/IP
The Memograph M RSG45 Data
Manager (photo), a data-acquisition
system for small process-control applications,
now features Ethernet/IP
capability, providing a cost-effective
way to integrate legacy 4-20-mA,
RTD, thermocouple and HART-based
instruments into a modern control
system. The RSG45 can quickly integrate
up to 20 individual instruments
into an EtherNet/IP environment using
a single cable. The EtherNet/IP connection
also allows a plant to control
batch start and stop activities from
the control room. The RSG45 is able
to accept up to 14 discrete and 20
universal/HART analog inputs from
process sensors. It can then display
this sensor data on its 7-in. multicolor
screen, record the data internally, perform
calculations and alarm checks
and transmit the data to a PC or any
control system. - Endress+ Hauser

Compact combustion monitor
based on TDL technology
The LaserGas III CO combustion analyzer
(photo) is an Ex-d certified tunable-diode-laser
(TDL) carbon monoxide
(CO) analyzer that also measures
methane, water and temperature. Suitable
for combustion processes where
increased explosion safety is a requirement,
this analyzer is said to be the
most compact CO combustion monitor
on the market. Typical applications that
can benefit from this device are fluid
catalytic cracking (FCC) units, package
boilers, process heaters, electrostatic
precipitators, waste-gas recovery, incineration
and so on. - NEO Monitors,

water decontamination
The E-Z Tray air stripper (photo) is a
sliding-tray, stainless-steel air stripper
used for removing volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) from contaminated
groundwater and waste
streams. E-Z Tray's design achieves
high removal efficiencies in an easyto-maintain
process unit that is readily
accessible for process monitoring
Simplify instrumentation
management in any location
The Field Information Manager 1.1
Handheld Edition software enables
users to do configuration, parametrization
and diagnosis of HART instruments
in many locations - in the field,
at the back of the panel or junction box
or in the instrumentation laboratory.
The Field Information Manager can be

and inspection, even while in operation.
The stripper is not prone to fouling
and can be cleaned by one person
with a simple pressure wash. It
also offers a wide turndown range.
As contaminated groundwater enters
through the top of the E-Z Tray
air stripper, millions of air bubbles are
forced by blower pressure up through
the perforated trays. This creates a
turbulent froth zone with an extremely
high air-to-liquid surface area for
mass transfer of VOCs from liquid to
air. Using the froth instead of a conventional
tower packing delivers high
VOC-removal efficiencies, even under
fouling conditions. - QED Environmental

Hygienic ball valves constructed
from stainless steel
This company now offers its simple
and robust hygienic ball valves with
stainless-steel construction (photo),
making them easy to flush and clean
for compressed air, gases and liquids
in the food processing industry.
The ball valves were originally developed
for use in painting stations, and
are therefore completely free of dead
zones and easy to clean. These qualities
also make them suitable for hygienic
applications in food processing.
The ball itself is permanently enclosed
and sealed by two polytetrafluoroethylene
(PTFE) half-liners. The inside of
the ball valve and the ball seats are
completely free of dead zones and micro-machined
to minimal roughness.
The stainless-steel ball valves have
1/4-in. threads on both ends. This
provides a dead-zone-free interface to
the company's FreeLine connectors or
enables direct mounting in installations
and lines. - Eisele Pneumatics GmbH
