The new B45 series of intelligent optical sensors from ABB Control is designed to offer maximum versatility and ease of use for a wide variety of control applications.
Flexible bar code scanner designed to adapt
Thanks to the Adaptascan's autofocus capability and WindowsT-based configuration software, changes in focus, scan pattern, label format and communication requirements can be made on-line.
The Komyo Kitagawa gas detector tube system is an accurate and cost effective spot gas detector sampling system, offering over 300 gas detector tubes, from ammonia to xylene.
The system consists of a pump and glass detector tubes.
The tubes are filled with an absorbent material and chemical reagent which, when in the presence of the target gas, produces a colour stain along the tube.
A calibration scale is printed on the tube to enable the user to easily match the length of the colour stain to the concentration of the gas present.
Applications are very wide for health and safety, flue and emission gas monitoring and indoor air quality.
Industries using the Kitagawa gas detector tube system are vast, including petrochemical, steel, mining, marine, engineering and agriculture.
The Kitagawa system is multifunctional and can be used for measuring dissolved substances in solutions, compressed breathing air testing and even blood screening in criminal investigations.
Extra apparatus for the AP-20 pump offers remote testing in confined spaces and as no electricity is required, there is no added risk of explosion.
