Temposoncis recently announced the launch of the LL-Series featuring the LLE and LLH liquid level transmitters for level measurement in general purpose and sanitary applications.

The LL-Series joins the existing LP-Series as product lines targeted towards level measurement with the LL-Series focused on general applications whereas the LP-Series is focused on hazardous areas.  There is minimal crossover between the two product lines with the LL-Series having a high speed update rate, compact design, and protocols for machine automation.

Stopping a pneumatic cylinder in emergency situations or during regular operations is essential to machine safety. Although there are many ways to solve this challenging application, stopping the flow of compressed air using an air circuit combined with a mechanical locking cylinder will be the most enhanced level of safety.

The energy in compressed air can be controlled and directed by solenoid valves to produce cylinder motion, but it can also be harnessed to abruptly stop cylinder motion.

JVL Part Numbers can be hard to understand, decipher.   Scott Equipment Company wants to make it easier for you to understand JVL's product numbers.

A typical JVL Product Number can be: MAC140-A1AAAA-A109.  It's hard to know what that 3rd and 4th 'A' mean.   Using the table below, by working across the table horizontally, you can decipher the 3rd 'A' and determine that the motor uses a Square Flange and the 4th 'A' tells you the color of the motor (in this case, black).

All right, today we are going to talk about the Finder 84 Series Smartimer. So, this is Finder’s 8402 - this is a two-channel digital timer. Let us start with a point of comparison to something a little more familiar. This is our 80 Series, multifunction, multi voltage, six timing functions available to it. Everybody has worked with something like this.

It is a crucial point of comparison, as we go to something a little newer, this has two channels: digital, so you get that digital level accuracy- 30 timing functions available to each channel, and they have a 16 amp contact rating. So importantly, let us start with this right off the bat. One of these costs less than two of these. So, if you are making use of both time functions, if you have an application that has two-time functions, this is a value play – the 84 Series enters the conversation on cost alone.

Glazing contractors (glazing refers to installing glass in a building's fixed openings, such as windows and doors) must work quickly, accurately, and safely at a building site to install window frame facings, curtain walls and storefronts in multi-story commercial buildings. Problems arise if holes drilled in extruded metal are not correctly cut to size or are misplaced. Multiplied over numerous applications, these issues can slow a project and make it go over budget. All it takes is a mis-placed quarter-inch diameter hole.
