PRODUCTS Compact Torque Measurement Life-Cycle-Management Software TorqueTrak 10K-LP telemetry system converts almost any drive shaft into a rotating torque sensor by mounting the wireless torque transmitter, battery, and a torque-sensitive strain gage to the shaft. Only 0.70-in. tall, the low-profile device has application in situations with very low radial clearance. Calibration is done off the shaft. Receiver display and keypad provide a user-friendly interface. FactoryTalk AssetCentre v7.0 software automates discovery and tracks the status of devices, network switches, and software on workstation computers across a facility or production operation. The software scans a network to discover hardware, firmware, and software information for assets active in a facility. The devices are then tracked in an active-asset inventory. The asset-inventory agent can be scheduled to scan at regular intervals or run on demand. New discoveries are compiled for user confirmation before they are added to the active inventory. Ongoing tracking of updates provides a history of how a system has changed and potential hazards. Manual entry is still available for devices that are not identifiable during the scan or to fill in missing information or attributes for discovered devices. A mobile-friendly dashboard provides information access. Binsfeld Engineering Inc.

A switch shift feature maximizes gas cylinder economy by allowing the user to change cylinder-switching ranges in the field from high pressure to as low as 150 psig. PCTFE and PEEK seat material options allow users to meet application-specific process conditions, while standard check-valve inlets on the hose glands eliminate contamination and backflow.
