Pre-packaged safety railing kits
Supplied in “safety yellow” for high visibility, Kwik Kit safety railing kits feature pre-assembled uprights for quick installation at water and wastewater treatment plants. The kits are easy to assemble using a hex key and are pre-packaged with 6-foot post spacing for straight sections, corner sections or extension sections. Kwik Kit meets or exceeds OSHA and IBC standards and is available in either galvanized steel or aluminum for corrosion resistance. They are designed to provide permanent or temporary solutions for plant and facility safety.
Weidmuller introduces its new line of DIN-rail mounted, thermal magnetic miniature circuit breakers (MCB) — the BR and SU Series. This new MCB line offers a complete range of UL 489 listed Branch circuit breakers and UL 1077 listed Supplementary circuit breakers, all rated for both AC and DC circuits. Well suited for use in environments where the control equipment may be subjected to vibration and mechanical shock, the BR and SU Series provide downstream protection for circuit cables, motors, generators, transformers, computer systems, power supplies and telecommunications equipment in industries worldwide.
The lightweight TETRA™ LP Block™ dual parallel lateral underdrain system from De Nora offers excellent distribution of backwash air and water for more efficient bed cleaning and reduced filter operation costs for new or retrofit applications. With no moving or wearing parts, the low-profile design is simple to install and requires minimal maintenance for long life. The GroutGrip design, standard on all LP Block™ underdrains, includes six rows of molded dovetail wedges that are embedded in the grout, offering 1.75 times the pullout strength of a conventional underdrain block.
Val-Matic’s Tilted Disc® Check Valve provides low head loss and non-slam performance. Non-slam closure is assured by both an angled seat design, which minimizes disc travel, and an offset pivot-mounted disc. The valve’s tapered seat and disc, designed with wear-resistant materials, assure tight seating and long life even in the most severe applications. Top- or bottom-mounted oil dashpots can be added for systems with extreme conditions such as high shut-off heads, surge tanks or multiple pump applications.
Fuji Electric Corp. of America has expanded its portfolio of Ring Compressors with the addition of the VFZ Series, a complete lineup of energy efficient, UL-certified and RoHS compliant models that are ideal for a wide variety of industrial applications. The VFZ Series comprises single-stage ring compressors with a maximum pressure of 139 in. H2O; a maximum vacuum of 110 in. H2O; and a maximum capacity of 570 SCFM. Featuring direct motors from 1 HP to 15 HP and available voltages of 115 single phase, 230 single phase, 230/460 three-phase (dependent upon motor size), these new models utilize Premium Efficiency motors and all units are provided with threaded flanges.
Red Valve’s CheckMate® UltraFlex™ Inline Check Valve, with its patented “Arc Notch” and optimized construction, opens 40% sooner than other check valves, allowing the pipeline and entire collection system to drain up to 40% faster. Because the UltraFlex Valve “snaps” open with far less head pressure, pipeline capacity is significantly increased, allowing a free flow of water during weather events and minimizing the chance for standing water to collect upstream.
Medium- and low voltage equipment specifiers can adopt digital twin technology to adopt a circular economy approach for sustainable, low-carbon equipment design.
Medium- and low voltage equipment manufacturers can prepare for environmental regulations now by using innovative MV switchgear design that eliminates SF6 use.
Using digital tools and apps for nearby monitoring and control increases safety and reduces arc flash hazards since electrical equipment can be operated from a safer distance....
