Denios
Denios offers the SpillGuard Leak Recognition System, which instantly alerts users when a leak is detected. This FM-approved technology is placed within the sump of a spill containment device, or near the equipment to be monitored, and alerts users with an audible and visual alarm for a minimum of 24 hours when contact is made with a liquid.
Designed for use with all essential and common liquid hazardous substances, the explosion-proof system features intelligent, robust sensor technology in a highly resistant, electrically conductive housing. The battery lasts up to five years and provides an audible signal to alert users of the need to replace it. It is deal for use with temperatures from 32° F (0° C) to 104° F (40° C), with a red LED light to indicate that the unit is operating safely. www.Denios-us.com
OleumTech
OleumTech offers its electromagnetic flow meter as part of its H Series hardwired process instrumentation line.
The OleumTech HEFM Magnetic Flow Meter offers polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) lining material, a backlit local display interface and various self-diagnostic features for managing critical device health. The HEFM flow meters can be custom ordered using a variety of line sizes, materials and power options to fit the needs of OleumTech end users.
Highlights include independent measurement of fluid density, viscosity, temperature, pressure and conductivity; two measuring points inside the meter with no moving parts; reference accuracy of ±0.2% of reading; output signal options of RS485 Modbus/4-20 mA/2-8 kHz pulse output; and a backlit liquid crystal display (LCD) with integral push-button interface. www.oleumtech.com
NDT Global
NDT Global released its OPTIX Data Visualization and Insights Platform, providing pipeline operators with an intuitive, cloud-based dashboard to visualize all inline inspection (ILI) data in one accessible location.
Digitization of the final inspection report, combined with the ease of filtering and arranging relevant data, allows operators to better understand their ILI inspection results and make more informed decisions to ensure the integrity of their pipelines.
The platform provides a comprehensive view of pipeline conditions not previously available, bringing together results from many inspection runs. Continued advancement in ILI technologies has led to significantly more data to extract and interpret. www.ndt-global.com
Sensirion
Sensirion offered its next-generation miniature CO2 sensor series, the SCD4x. The device is built on the photo-acoustic sensing principle and the patented PASens and CMOSens Technology enables the small sensor size to combine with high performance.
The integrated humidity and temperature sensor enable on-chip signal compensation and additional RH and T outputs. Also, the large supply voltage range (2.4 V-5.5 V), and adjustable power consumption make the SCD4x increases savings. The kit contains a four-pin jumper wire cable that enables fast prototyping, through integration into existing platforms like Arduino and Raspberry Pi. www.sensirion.com/scd4x
Enduro
Enduro’s Digitel Data Logger DW2 ILI pig features advanced IMU navigation equipment that complements our PigProg software containing GIS tools that connect to a system use ArcGIS. Pipeline operators are becoming familiar with new regulations pertaining to CFR 192 and 195 compliance. Pipelines affected by these new regulations will need accurate mapping along with moderate consequence area (MCA) determination. Natural gas gathering and transmission pipelines also need to be updated. Enduro also has tools to work with liquid pipeline operators for HCA determination using the unusual sensitive area (USA) licensed datasets. www.enduropls.com
Sick, ERC
Sick and Eagle Research Corporation (ERC) offer a remote data collection solution using the FLOWSIC500 ultrasonic gas flow meter. This device allows for remote access to meter integrity data and gas flow information.
ERC is an independently owned, automation and telemetry solutions provider, focused on industrial and natural gas applications. This recent partnership pairs the FLOWSIC500 with ERC’s 9040500USM cellular monitoring device.
The ERC 9040500USM integrates with any SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) system or third-party polling engine to access flow information and meter health data using standard LTE (long-term evolution) cellular-based communication protocols. www.sick.com
Netzsch
Netzsch also offers advanced, field-proven technology for lease automatic custody transfer (LACT) and other midstream and downstream pumping applications.
Nemo progressing cavity pumps are reliable, modular systems that handle a wide range of hydrocarbons with a constant, smooth and low-pulsating flow that ensures accurate flow readings.
Notos 3NS multiple screw pumps are the next generation in LACT pipeline booster pump technology with efficient operation, a small footprint and easy serviceability.
The Tornado Rotary Lobe Pumps solve a wide range of challenging applications and solids control, with high-power density, small space requirements and the ability to convey almost any substance continuously and gently while metering in proportion to rotation speed. The Tornado is engineered to handle media that are sheer-sensitive, low- or high-viscosity, abrasive, and acidic/caustic substances. www.pumps.netzsch.com
