SINGER VALVE
Single Rolling DiaphragmPGM Control Valves
Singer Valve, a leading manufacturer of control valves has now added Single Rolling Diaphragm (SRD) technology to the 106/206 PGM Valve Series. The 106/206 PGM Series Control Valves are designed for particularly sensitive applications or situations where valves are difficult to access and maintain. They provide an integral back up control and the ability to signal should the desired function move off limits. It can also provide an independent and very positive override. With SRD technology the valve becomes incredibly steady throughout a complete range of flows and eradicates the need of additional low flow bypass valves.  The effective area of a single rolling diaphragm remains constant so the bonnet is much smaller and lighter than a flat diaphragm version. A measured quantity into the bonnet control chamber always gives the same smooth movement of the inner valve through the entire stroke. For more information, visit www.singervalve.com.

SKF
Laser Vibrometer MSL-7000
The new SKF Laser Vibrometer (MSL-7000 series) serves as an ideal laser-based tool to measure vibration and structure-borne noise from fans, electric motors, and pumps reliably without making contact with their surfaces. This non-contact vibration sensor offers a compact and robust solution to deliver optimal results on every measurement surface, regardless of environmental conditions.  The technology benefits from a high-end contactless velocity proportional sensor and is especially suitable to perform process-integrated, “end of line” acoustic inspections of “noise critical” equipment for information on manufacturing quality and compliance with a product’s acoustic emission limits. The direct integration of the SKF Laser Vibrometer into a production line ultimately can create a real-time quality control system for products enabling pass/fail decisions on the basis of structure-borne vibration. The vibrometer further supports flexible re-setting of manufacturing batches and test set-ups. For more information, call 800.440.4SKF or visit www.skf.com/lasersensor.
