BULKPLANT

A selection of companies’ offerings.

BASE ENGINEERING BULK PLANT SHUTDOWN Base Engineering’ s combination wireless and fixed location E-Stop / emergency shutdown systems are designed to eliminate costly hard wiring of multiple fixed-location emergency stop switches. Any number of wireless remote E-Stop switches can be installed within a plant facility and communicate with one receiver / controller unit. These systems are designed to work in conjunction with existing, hard-wired, manual E-Stop switches and plant safety controls. Operator-worn E-Stop remotes, designed to enhance safety, can be added to these systems. BASE Engineering- www. baseng. com
BLACKMER NP SERIES SLIDING VANE PUMPS Blackmer NP Series Sliding Vane Pumps have been designed to provide efficient transfer for a wide variety of bulk-storage operations, in applications such as loading and unloading, transfer, mixing and blending. The NP Series pumps can meet the needs of these demanding applications because they have been designed for the handling of clean, non-corrosive liquids at varying temperatures, pressures and viscosities. NP pumps offer maximum versatility while sustaining a high-level of performance and trouble-free operation. NP Series pumps are available in five sizes, with port sizes from 1.5 to 4-inch. They feature flow rates from 5 to 500 gpm( 19 to 1,893 lpm) at operating temperatures up to 500 ° F( 260 ° C). NP Series pumps feature Blackmer’ s revolutionary sliding-vane-technology principles, which guarantee consistent volumetric-output performance, even after significant in-service time. This eliminates the efficiency-robbing“ slip” that shortens lobe and gear pump life, and improves production yields by stripping lines of residual product. Blackmer – www. blackmer. com
CIVACON OPTIC RACK MONITOR MODEL 8130 FOR BOTTOM & TOP LOADING Well-suited for bottom-loading applications with vehicles outfitted with Optic sensors, and also suited for overfill protection while top-loading railcars or tank trucks. Generates a unique, pulsed— and intrinsically safe— electrical signal that is transmitted to the sensors via a coiled cord and optic-format plug. When sensors on the transport are dry a signal is returned to the monitor. If the signal meets pre-determined characteristics the monitor goes to a“ permissive” state, which changes the status light on the front of the 8100 Series Optic Rack Monitor from red(“ non-permissive”) to green(“ permissive”). If the sensor becomes wet, the relay is opened and the status light changes from green to red( non-permissive), shutting down the loading process. The Model 8130 Optic Monitor with Ground Verification includes displayed status of the optic sensor(“ permissive” or“ non-permissive”) and mode of operation. Civacon – www. civacon. com
