Fluid Power - NDES 2000 Preview

Hose fitting, Booth 2554.WEO plug-in hose fittings, with their click-to-connect feature, allow high-pressure hydraulic hose assemblies to be connected to systems without any need for tools. Suitable for confined or difficult to reach locations, the fittings increase production throughput upon initial installation and reduce down-time for field maintenance. CEJN Industrial Corp, Gurnee, IL. Free info--Circle 522. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-522

Pressure transmitter, Booth 7850. The Model V2 pressure transmitter, which guarantees +1% interchangeability for demanding OEM applications, is geared for those who need a robust sensor in an environmentally-sound NEMA 4X enclosure. It features an all-stainless-steel wetted construction and uses fused silicon technology to provide an excellent, nonorganic bond between the sensor and the stainless steel diaphragm.

Pump heads, tubing kits, Booth 539.LF (low flow) pump heads and Q661 small bore tubing kits feature standard wetted materials of ceramic and fluorocarbon, which provide a chemically-resistant fluid path and millions of trouble-free cycles. Flow rates are available from 0 to 0.10 ml per stroke and 0 to 0.72 mps(depending on pump head) with repeat accuracy of better than 0.1%. The LF option is available at no additional cost on H and Q style pump heads. Fluid Metering Inc, Syosset, NY. Free info--Circle 524. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-524

Gas springs, Booth 6982.This company will display a wide variety of gas springs such as locking, traction, stainless steel and damper types, in all sizes and pressures including mini and monster springs. They require no external or hydraulic supply, making them an efficient source of power for lifting, lowering, positioning and counterbalancing any application. Bansbach North America, Melbourne, FL.

Teflon pressure sensors, Booth 6639.Designated the PurePressure Series, these pressure transducers and transmitters incorporate premium-grade teflon on all interior and exterior surfaces, shielded signal wires, and a dual redundant fluid containment safety membrane. Fully inert to internal and external corrosion, the units offer protection against contamination and the aggressive attack of fluids with extreme pH range. BEI Technologies Inc, Sylmar, CA. Free info--Circle 526. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-526 

Spray nozzle, Booth 6553.The Maximum Free Passage (MFP) FullJet nozzle reportedly offers the industry's largest free passage of any spray nozzle of its type. The nozzle's maximum liquid throughput capability translates into consistent coating, cooling, washing and rinsing. Its vane design minimizes clogging and also results in a balanced condition for the fluid before it enters the whirl chamber. Spraying Systems Co, Wheaton, IL. Free info--Circle 527. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-527

Metal bellows, hoses and joints, Booth 8974.This company will display its metal bellows, hoses and industrial expansion joints for use in diesel and gasoline engine exhaust manifolds, fuel engines, and other applications involving industrial processing, refining, steam, vacuum and more. Their manufacturing capabilities include hose fabrication from 1/4- to 12-in. dia.; bellows fabrication from 1- to 60-in. dia.; and tube bending up to 3-in. OD. Flexible Metal Hose Co, Tucker, GA. Free info--Circle 528. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-528

Pinch valve, Booth 8718.Displayed will be a motor-actuated 2-in. pinch valve that can be used for precision flow rate control as well as on-off applications. The valve compliments the company's air-actuated pinch valves, which range in size from 1/4- to 2-in. Airpinch brand valves feature molded plastic housings and a variety of internal rubber sleeves. They are ideal for many hard-to-control materials, including slurries and dry flowables. Richway Industries Ltd, Janesville, IA. Free info--Circle 529. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-529 

Pressure switch, Booth 7763.This company will display its new line of electronic pressure switches that are available in either pressure gauge or traditional pressure switch configurations. They incorporate non-mechanical, semiconductor switching technology, and come in normally open or normally closed, single or dual set point variations with either p-n-p (positive) or n-p-n (negative) switching. Set point adjustment can be either field adjustable or tamper-proof. NOSHOK Inc, Berea, OH. Free info--Circle 530. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-530

High flow valve, Booth 8544.This high-flow solenoid valve incorporates a coil readily fitted or replaced without tools -- reportedly the first of its kind worldwide. Model 8241 features a captive stainless steel click-on spring that can be easily unlatched manually to exchange coils in order to accommodate different voltage requirements. The spring clip is attached to the valve cover with a fastener, eliminating the chance of losing the clip. KIP Inc, Farmington, CT. Free info--Circle 531. http://www.OneRS.net/103df-531

Configurable miniature manifold, Booth 6337. The company will display a system that incorporates the technology of the world's smallest valve. The X-System's configurable manifold provides reliable pneumatic solutions in a package that reduces system size and redefines manifold technology. It uses the digital X-Valve, which incorporates all functional features in a glass-reinforced PBT molded utilized body. Parker Hannifin, Pneutronics Division, Hollis, NH.
