New vibration meter helps reduce
oil, gas, petrochem pipework failure
Pipe Vibration Meter 330 is new
to reduce premature failures on
offshore and onshore oil, gas, and
petrochem plant pipework.
PVM 330 combines accelerometer, data cable, and analyzer to
deliver easy assessment of vibra-tion-induced pipework fatigue. Its
accelerometer is placed onto one
of a number of predetermined
pipework positions to measure
vibration amplitude and frequency. Readings are fed into the analyzer. It uses FFTs and industry
standard acceptance criteria to identify whether there
is an operational risk. Output is confgured as a simple
‘traffc light’ message: ‘OK’ no action is needed; ‘
concern’ or ‘problem’ to prompt remedial action.

Double block and bleed ball valves
serve calibration up to 15,000 psi
Trunnion style block and
bleed ball valves are new
for calibration applications to
15,000 psi.
The full port, quarter turn
designs deliver double positive isolation to block and
bleed high pressure hydraulic
and pneumatic systems used
for pressure monitoring and
test, chemical injection, or
drain line isolation.

‘Virtual fow metering’ pump control
and monitor is new
New PCS550 Pump Controller & Monitor employ
“virtual fow metering” technology with stroke-counting
and (patent pending) current-sensing features.
Models sense pump-com-pression stroke-current and
count positive displacement
strokes for precise fow-based delivery — regardless
of pump motor speed or well
pressure. They are almost the
same cost as traditional pump
timers that do not allow remote control or monitoring.

Portable multigas detectors unveiled
T4 portable multigas detectors
are announced to provide advanced
worker protection and ensure safety
standards compliance.
They note unsafe CO, O2, H2S levels plus a range of fammable gases
with +ve Safety ‘traffc light’ status indicator for at-a-glance status checks
without having to read and interpret
data shown on the display screen.
