‘Safety Guard’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Safety relays simplify control-system design from Eaton Corp, which we summarised at the time by saying "Safety relays in the Eaton Moeller ESR5 range simplify the design and implementation of control systems that meet safety and reliability standards.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Nitrogen generators cut costs of food packaging from Parker Hannifin - Parker Sales UK: "Phil Green, at Parker Hannifin's industrial division, explains how the latest nitrogen-generation technology can help food and beverage companies increase their operational efficiency and cut costs. ".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from SGS SA - Industrial Services - take a look at SGS inspects storage tanks at refinery which says: "SGS Colombia SA has performed storage tank inspections for the expansion of the Cartagena Refinery. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Exide Technologies, JTT uses Exide gel batteries and SP chargers, as well as Himax increases chlorine plant availability from Hima Paul Hildebrandt, and Beakbane introduces composite stone guards from Beakbane.
