‘Namur’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Liquiphant accurately measures liquid levels from
Endress+Hauser, which we summarised at the time by saying "Endress and Hauser's Liquiphant is a vibrating level switch for accurate limit detection and point level-measurement of liquids.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Namur approves Wirelesshart for process uses from
Hart Communication Foundation: "Namur has announced that Wirelesshart technology meets the requirements for wireless sensor networks in process applications.".
In August 2009, we covered the news from Samson Controls
- take a look at Samson unveils electronic valve position monitor
which says: "A self-diagnostic valve position monitor that can be used on on/off valves in all fields of application is the latest addition to the Samson Controls range of valves and accessories.".
Take a look also at the news release from Burkert Fluid Control Systems, Burkert releases power I/O box,
as well as Dual compartments protect temperature transmitters from ABB Automation Tech (Instrumentation + Automation),
and Flow control units chosen for Belgian project from Arc Energy Resources.
