Trouble-Free Brushless Motor & Control Family

Baldor’s new family of BSM25C and BSM33C brushless motors offer the benefits of high torque and power in small packages, reduced maintenance and quiet operation. The new BMC series controls are simple to operate, as no programming is necessary; they provide a tight speed regulation better than 0.5% and use the industry standard input command (+/- 10Vdc) or optional pot input for speed control. The combination of BSM motor and BMC control adjusts for a speed range up to 7000 rpm, provides adjustable acceleration time from 0.1-30 seconds and comes in a fully protected package (i.e. motor overload, short circuit and electronic inrush protection, etc.).

Quick, Safe, Flexible Piping System Couplings

Victaulic’s new Style 177 QuickVic® Flexible Coupling has joined the Style 107 QuickVic Rigid Coupling in the company’s patented installation-ready piping system product line. Both are well suited for utility service and industrial process piping applications. Their single-unit designs allow crews to assemble an installation-ready coupling by simply inserting it onto the grooved end of a pipe, fitting, valve or any other accessory, and tightening the nuts with standard hand tools or an impact wrench, thus reducing installation time and making the task safer. There are no flames, noxious fumes or loose parts that can be lost or dropped.

Condition Monitoring The Intelligent Way

SPM Instrument’s Intellinova® online condition monitoring system uses the True SPM® Method to measure shock pulse and SPM Spectrum™ for in-depth bearing analysis on your critical equipment. Shocks emitted by rolling element bearings are analyzed with FFT. Band alarms enable easy alarm management and improved alarm reliability. For vibration analysis, Intellinova uses EVAM® (Evaluated Vibration Measurement Analysis). EVAM combines vibration time record analysis and vibration spectrum analysis with machine specific statistical evaluations to supply easy to understand machine condition data. Two-channel simultaneous vibration measurement provides the functionality for root cause analysis. The robustly designed system is well suited for harsh environments and long-term use. It is made up of an industrial enclosure, a Commander Unit and up to four shock pulse, vibration and/or analog measuring units, in total 32 channels. Measurement results are transferred via Ethernet to the diagnostic software Condmaster® Nova. Intellinova implements OPC™ Data Access, through which process control data can be transferred seamlessly to and from any data source, such as DCS or SCADA systems, PLCs, databases, gauges, spreadsheets etc. to any OPC compliant application.
