    DP Xmtrs on Towers

    You could try to put the dp below the taps to keep the tubing full of condensable. If the condensable stays in liquid phase up to the taps you should be fine. Be sure the tracing temperature keep the tubing above the freesing point and below the flashing point. You will have to ofset your...

    4-20mA to optical fiber converter

    I dont know what bandwidth is needed but those signals are only for information and not for control. So a resolution of 16 bits and a one refresh per second shall be enough. I dont know if that can help you but thanks for your help. Regards,

    4-20mA to optical fiber converter

    From point A t point B, There are 1500 meters. I plan to install two cable of six multimodes fibers 62.5/125 microns. I need to get from B to piont A, 4 analog signals(4-20mA) and 2 digital signals(dry contacts). Also I need to send from point A to point B, 5 analog signals(4-20mA). Regards,

    4-20mA to optical fiber converter

    Does someone knows a product that can receive some analog(4-20mA) and digital inputs, multiplex them, send them trough optical fibre and at the other end of the fiber, reconvert them in analog and digital signals. Help will be appreciate. Regards,

    Filtration of samples for analytical online analysys

    I am having trouble with filtration of a sample stream to be sent to an X-Ray and a water analysers. Problem is the plugging of primary filter. We need to change filter much to often. The system is the folowing : Fast loop 1/2" witch main stream return to the process and filtrate goes to...
