Isolation Knife Gate Valve for Medium-Slurry Mining and Minerals Applications
Many manufacturing processes have challenging fluids flowing through their pipes and vessels. Mining and minerals have some of the most challenging with abrasive and corrosive solids in the flowing fluids. In a Valve magazine article, Challenges of Medium Density...
Optimizing Wort Sugar Concentration in Craft Beer Brewing
In the U.S, a craft brewer or beer-maker, is defined as small, independent and traditional. A Fortune article highlighted the growth in craft brewing in the United States: As of the end of 2017, there were 6,266 craft breweries operating in the U.S., more than double...
Intuitive Magnetic Flow Meter Operation and Diagnostics
Many technologies are available to measure flow. Electromagnetic flow meters, also known as magnetic flow meters or magmeters, are well suited for a variety of applications across a range of industries including pulp and paper, metals and mining, water and wastewater,...
Vortex Flow Meters in Safety Instrumented Functions
Safety instrumented systems provide a layer of protection beyond the control system to safely shutdown the process during abnormal situations. A safety instrumented function (SIF) or "safety loop" includes the sensing device, logic solver and final control element to...
How-To Video on Coriolis and Magmeter Smart Meter Verification
Flow measurement is a key part of many processes—including those where the custody of the product changes ownership. For these fiscal measurements, accurate and repeatable flow measurement is imperative. Rosemount magnetic flow meters and Micro Motion Coriolis flow...
Onshore Direct from the Wellhead Multiphase Flow Measurement
Indications keep coming in that the oil & gas production business, particularly in unconventional oil & gas production, continues to improve. This RBN Energy article, Ready To Run - Strong Capex Boost By ConocoPhillips Headlines Early 2018 Guidance is one...
Accurate Flow Measurement in Gas Plunger Lift Applications
As gas production wells age, there is a natural decline in reservoir pressure over time. In a Flow Control article, Proper Instrumentation is Key to Profitable Plunger Lift Applications, Emerson's Wally Baker, Eric Beltz and Tom McCulloch describe the challenges in...
Connectivity from Wireless Transmitters to Controllers via EthernetIP
For manufacturers in the discrete and hybrid manufacturing industries, packaging is an important part of their processes. For reliable and flexible operations connecting the information from the various packaging lines is important. Sensors with online diagnostics...
