Universal input display has
transmitter and alarm features
The new VPM3000 Series of universal
input displays (photo) with transmitter
and alarm capabilities combines
the digital indicator function of a panel
meter with optional signal conditioning
for 4-20-mA transmitter output
and alarm trip solid-state relays. The
devices are able to operate as a transmitter
or alarm to satisfy a wide variety
of process and temperature applications.
Field-selectable inputs accept
process current/voltage and temperature
sensor signals, including 4-20
mA, ±20 mA, 0-10 V, ±10 V, Pt resistance
temperature detectors (RTDs),
and most common thermocouple varieties.
For additional versatility, units
can provide power to drive a 4-20mA
transmitter and other instruments.
Modbus RTU serial communication
is also supported. - Acromag, Inc.,

High-speed gas analysis
enables emissions reductions
The TDLS8100 probe-type tunable
diode-laser-spectrometer (TLDS)
realtime gas analyzer (photo)
makes quick and accurate in situ
gas-concentration measurements,
eliminating the requirement for
sampling and conditioning components
in industrial process-heating
applications. These capabilities
support safety improvements,
emissions reductions, optimization
of fuel efficiency and yields, as well
as prolonging the life of assets. The
instrument is field-serviceable with
no consumables or calibration required.
This results in reduced installation
and maintenance costs.
According to the manufacturer, the
single-flange design allows installation
where cross-duct TDLS technology
was previously not feasible
due to accessibility, obstructions
or budget constraints. For use in
safety instrumented systems, the
TDLS8100 analyzer is compliant
with safety integrity level 2 (SIL 2).
It is also explosion-proof for Division
1 and Zone 1 installations. -

A next-generation conditionmonitoring
field device
The next-generation VCM-3 condition-monitoring
platform (photo)
is designed to increase the uptime
and reduce overall lifecycle costs of
pumps, fans, motors, gearboxes and
many other types of machines, while
increasing reliability. The field-proven
VCM-3 is a 12-channel data-acquisition
hub for
monitoring
machines,
balance-of-plant
auxiliary
(BOP)
non-critical machines and other assets
in industries where cost-effective
condition monitoring is required without
machine protection. It features
enhanced condition-monitoring measurement
techniques, easy system
integration, built-in cybersecurity and
simple installation. The platform has
been designed for scalability, so users
can get started quickly with the basic
model. - Brüel & Kjær Vibro GmbH,
