All types of Industrial Instruments and Measurement Tools.
For Process Automation Control Systems and Plant Condition Monitoring. Ultrasonic leak, vibration , displacement, and paperless chart recording/controllers.
Specialist in Temperature Measurement including Non-Contact Infra-Red Thermometry and Thermal Imaging from Raytek and Fluke.
The British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing (BINDT) is pleased to invite you to this premier event, the Fifth International Conference on Condition Monitoring and Machinery Failure Prevention Technologies.
The Conference is being organised by BINDT in close co-operation and partnership with the US Society for Machinery Failure Prevention Technology (MFPT).
The combination of the efforts of two leading organisations creates the largest event of its kind at a truly international level and builds on the highly successful series of international Condition Monitoring Conferences and highly successful 61 Annual Conferences organised by the Society of MFPT.

Boiler engineers and technical specialists will be available on the Byworth stand to help maintenance and plant engineers across all industries as they address the ever increasing fuel cost of running steam and hot water boilers.
As boiler systems and applications are individual, it is important to gather as much technical information about efficiency improvements as possible.
With this in mind, Byworth engineers will be ready to discuss: the latest technical developments in steam and hot water boilers, waste heat utilisation, fuel saving and efficiency.
The Everdry product series from the compressed-air specialist Beko Technologies offers standard and bespoke solutions with numerous concepts and possibilities. The basis of the range is different standardised portfolios of heat-regenerated adsorption dryers.
Starting with the Everdry FRA in different sizes for volume flows of 600 to 20,000 m3/h. As a
A practical example involves a recent project at a wastewater treatment plant in Cleveland that needed realistic cold alignment targets for a 3600 rpm compressor.
This machine had a long history of coupling and bearing failures. Over a two-year period several attempts were made to calculate the thermal growth on the motor and compressor supports. The original equipment manufacturer's (OEM) technical manual gave a vertical thermal offset value of +0.04 in. (+40 mils). There were no recommendations for a target vertical angularity. Horizontal alignment changes were not mentioned.
There was some confusion with the OEM targets as provided. Maintenance personnel did not know if this value represented what the rim dial indicator should read when the cold alignment was completed (with a dial indicator mounted on the stationary shaft and indicating the motor coupling). Dial indicators indicate the total indicated runout (TIR) each time the shaft is rotated 180 deg. Half of the TIR represents the actual centerline offset; therefore the target should actually be +20 mils vertical offset.
In the medical community, prescription without diagnosis is known as malpractice. In compressed air, a solution without problem definition is guessing. Everyday, facilities personnel commit compressor malpractice by responding to a symptom instead of
discovering the real problem. A symptom may be low air pressure,which is certainly a problem to production, but the root cause of the low air pressure could be any number of reasons.

When sensor market leader ifm electronic launched the efector metris a year or so back it caused quite a storm as the first affordable device to monitor consumption or leakage of that major commodity, compressed air.
Many of you use other gases, though, and we were often asked
Cost-effective predictive maintenance vibration monitor detects rolling element bearing failures and shaft imbalance conditions in four locations simultaneously.
The innovative efector octavis bearing condition monitor from sensor market leader ifm electronic is now available as a master unit which can monitor up to four seaparate locations. These new versions make predictive maintenance efector octavis even more cost effective.
The octavis central unit can also now be programmed via ethernet. The vibration pickups, which can be up to 30m from the central diagnostic, are made in stainless steel with a IP69K rating for arduous environments.
