ORLITA PS Plunger Metering Pump

Plunger head with stuff box packing. The plunger oscillates in the cylinder and displaces the liquid. The packing adjustment is achieved by the front-sided adjusting screw, which is also possible during operation.
The lantern on the rear head end serves to drain the leakage or can be used as an area to flush, lubricate or seal the pump with suitable media.
The pump check valves are of cone type. This guarantees low wear, short pressure loss (NPSHR) and self-cleaning. All wetted parts are fabricated from stainless steel and sealed by PTFE.

New guided wave radar level instruments

Rosemount 5300 Guided Wave Radar is announced to combine proven technology with new features beneficial in oil and gas production, refining, and petrochemical.
Its Direct Switch Technology (DST) function provides an echo signal two-to-five-times stronger than other GWR transmitters, it’s declared. Improved signal-to-noise radio provides enhanced ability to handle difficult measuring conditions including long measuring distances and lower dielectrics — also with a single lead probe. Modular-designed 5300 GWR is engineered to operate over 752°F/400°C. or 5,000 psig/345bar.

New catalysts for heavy mercaptan sweetening

CAC-120 Catalytic Activated Carbon has been unveiled in four configurations for heavy mercaptan sweetening technology.
The preimpregnated CAC-200P highly active, abrasion-resistant granular activated carbon is for use as a catalyst support in carbon beds for use in hydrocarbon sweetening units based on a catalytic/caustic fixed bed system.
CAC-128 is for downflow reactors (Merox units) as preimpregnated media to minimize startup time on activated carbon support in LPG, gasoline, or kerosene.
CAC-120W is for use in carbon beds in upflow reactors (Mericat II technology) based on a catalytic/caustic fixed bed carbon bed. CAC-120S is for upflow reactors (Mericat II units). This media is preimpregnated and dried to avoid contaminating aqueous process solutions with impregnation solution.
