Electrocoagulation
Powell Water Systems’ electrocoagulation system uses a patented electrocoagulation chamber that converts incoming alternating current electricity to DC voltage. The current passes from metal bars extended into the water and destabilizes suspended, emulsified or dissolved contaminants. They can then be removed through secondary separation. The system has proven effective with wastewater from paper pulp mills, metal plating, tanneries, mining operations, canning factories, steel mills and slaughter houses.

Pressure transducer
The new M5100 Pressure Transducer from Measurement Specialties is designed for industrial applications that require long-term stability despite harsh environments. With proprietary MicrofusedTM technology, it’s ideal for HVAC controllers, refrigeration systems, pumps & compressors, automotive test stands, gas compressors, water management systems, etc. Measurement Specialties Inc., Hampton VA, 757-766-1500, www.meas-spec.com
Lab mixer
IKA Works introduces the compact MagicLAB, a new laboratory mixer that accelerates product development in the laboratory. The system offers seven different mixing technologies, variable speed control and a variety of mixing heads which give the user the tools to quickly determine which type of mixer is best suited for their process. It can be configured to operate as a continuous mixer, or as a batch mixer. IKA Works, Wilmington, NC, 800-733-3037, www.ikausa.com
Moisture meter
With moisture measurement for ultra-high purity (UHP) gases critical to semiconductor, LCD, and other manufacturing processes, HygroTraceTM uses a newly patented technique to provide accurate, reliable measurement for 0-100 ppb moisture levels with the sensitivity and speed matched only by analyzers that are much larger and more expensive.
