For automating machines that require only two to three axes of electric actuators, pulse outputs may be the simplest way to go.
A large utility company had a series of dams which controlled the flow of water into the local area. These dams were deemed as a critical infrastructure by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The spillways are controlled by large butterfly valves which are actuated utilizing hydraulics.
Oriental Motor's AlphaStep closed loop control systems perform accurate positioning operations with ease.
The AlphaStep AZD-K Stepper Motor Drivers offer 24/48 VDC input voltage, high functionality and closed loop control.
The wastewater treatment equipment market was worth over $35 billion in 2015, and is expected to reach more than $55 billion by 2023. Increasing demands for water, alongside a trend in recycling and reusing this precious resource, are two reasons for the growth. Learn more.
In geothermal plants, transforming the earth's heat into electricity imposes challenging conditions on pressure measurement equipment. WIKA's pressure monitoring instruments and diaphragm seals can withstand harsh environments, as shown in a recent installation in Southeast Asia. Learn more.
In hydroelectric power generation, dirt and debris in the intake water can shorten the lifetime of turbine blades. Filters inside intake pipes trap the debris so that only sediment-free water hits the blades. A differential pressure sensor/transducer measures the flow. Learn more.
Flow measurement, along with measuring temperature and pressure, are critical for optimal operation in gas and steam turbines. If these parameters do not stay within appropriate ranges, a power plant will suffer from issues with safety, performance, and efficiency. Learn more.
In hydroelectric power generation, dirt and debris in the intake water can shorten the lifetime of turbine blades. Filters inside intake pipes trap the debris so that only sediment-free water hits the blades. A differential pressure sensor/transducer measures the flow on both sides of the filter, and will alert plant operators when the filter is dirty and needs to be replaced.
PGI answered customer requests for a lower stem handleturning torque by introducing their new Low-Torque™ Grafoil® bonnet and packing design. Grafoil® Stem Seal Torque Reduced 50%.
A lesson for me is that I need to involve you earlier in the program.
You were tireless in your support and it will not be forgotten!
