The microwave barrier VEGA‘MIP’ (Microwave Impulse Point-level) is especially designed for the needs of the bulk handling industries. It can be applied to bulk solids or liquid level detection, in plastic vessels for example, or object detection - such as vehicle positioning/warning and oversize/height alarms on conveyors etc. As this is a non-contact measurement, VEGAMIP 61 has no direct contact with the medium, providing reliability for abrasive, aggressive or high temperature applications. In the case of metallic or conductive vessels, VEGAMIP can measure from the outside through a non conductive microwave permeable window, e.g. in ceramic, glass or plastic materials.

Load cells, strain gauges, force sensors and instrumentation from the worlds leading suppliers are available from Variohm EuroSensor, who offer a reliable service, from stock deliveries and professional consultancy in the area of application and technical know-how.

UniTrak Powderflight Limited recently received an order for two Powderflight aeromechanical conveyors to handle diatomaceous earth for a large international brewery in Canada.  The diatomaceous earth is used in the filtering process. 

Rota Val has recently undertaken a complete review of its popular and versatile PS Diverter Valve range to further enhance capability.
Embodying patented features, the range is suitable for all types of conveying systems from high vacuum lean phase through to high pressure dense phase.  The smooth swept diversion pipe has a constant cross sectional area and bore dimension making it particularly suitable for handling delicate products and products that tend to block easily. 

Procon Engineering’s extensive and comprehensive site-wide calibration capabilities now cover force, weight, flow and temperature, providing essential UKAS traceable certification.

Accurate calibration for critical equipment is an essential part of any service program to ensure optimised productivity and protect profits. Procon’s all-encompassing 24-7 total site capability ensures they can provide clients with complete and effective service, calibration and support packages tailored exactly to their needs.

The well established ForceCal allows the onsite calibration of silos and vessels ranging from 1 to 50 t and is currently being used to calibrate over 2000 vessels annually in the UK. The test rigs are certified for use in Zone 1 and 21 (Gases and Dusts) ATEX certified areas.

WeighCal services cover the calibration of weighing equipment from laboratory scales to weighbridges using traceable weights.

FlowCal offers a unique onsite service for flow meters using Procon’s mobile flow calibration rigs. This significantly reduces downtime by removing the need to send meters offsite for calibration.

Temp°Cal provides calibration for a wide range of temperature controllers, probes, ovens and chillers covering temperature ranges from -30°C up to 1200°C.
