‘Aggressive Chemical’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Liquid pumps designed for oil, water and chemicals from Autoclave Engineers, which we summarised at the time by saying "Autoclave Engineers has designed a group of air-driven, positive-displacement, high-pressure liquid pumps for service with oil, water and chemicals. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Taegutec replaces CT5000 grade with Cermet CT7000 from TaeguTec UK: "Taegutec has brought out the Cermet CT7000 grade for steel-machining applications at high cutting speeds. ".

In November 2009, we covered the news from Wilcoxon Research - take a look at Accelerometers obtain hazardous-area certification which says: "Wilcoxon Research has announced an additional intrinsically safe certification in accordance with IECEx requirements for six general-purpose accelerometers.".

Take a look also at the news release from Freudenberg Simrit LP, Pitch gears with intelligent shaft sealing , as well as Parker needle valve handles contaminated media from Parker Hannifin - Parker Sales UK, and Talisman chooses Aptiv film for CMOS / CCD mask from Victrex.
