EFFICIENT COOLING with COMPACT CABINET COOLERS
Noren Products Cabinet Coolers (CCC) reduce downtime while
removing the heat from sealed electrical panels and enclosures using
heat pipe technology. The CCC's prevent contaminant from getting
into enclosures. They reduce failures and downtime, consume less energy
than A/C, are easy to install, and maintenance free. Noren offers a
variety of models; below ambient, NEMA 12, 3R, 4, 4X, Stainless Steel,
UL,cUL, RoHS compliant.

Billions of Dollars in Energy Could Be
Lost Annually Due to Poor Motor Sizing
WEG Electric Motors Corp. (www.weg.net), a leading global supplier of motors,
drives, controls, generators, and transformers, explains how proper
motor sizing could easily save vast amounts of energy. Energy efficiency
losses through over-sizing of pump electric motors by engineers are
commonplace and, if the motor specification far exceeds the application,
it could be costing industry billions of dollars in wasted energy.
"Industry figures suggest that around 80% of pump motors could be the
incorrect size," commented Andrew Glover, Product Manager for WEG
Motors. "The majority are over specified by as much as 10 or 15% by
engineers wanting to be 'on the safe side.' As pumps typically account
for around 30% of an industrial country's energy usage, this represents
a serious loss of energy."

High Plant Maintenance Costs and the
Need to Improve the Key Performance Indicators Lead to Continued Growth
in EAM Solutions
The world enterprise asset management systems (EAM) market for
process industries has experienced continued growth, especially with
high plant maintenance costs fueling spending on EAM systems. In order
to sustain this growth, EAM systems vendors would have to compete
fiercely to offer innovative and cost-effective solutions to
multinational as well as small and medium businesses (SMBs). The ability
to increase presence in the Asia Pacific and Latin American regions
would also open numerous lucrative market opportunities. "The ability of
EAM systems to reduce plant downtime and the manufacturing costs remains
the primary driver for the world EAM systems markets," notes Frost and
Sullivan. "The growing need to adhere regulatory issues, implementation
of best practices, and the increased penetration of enterprise wide IT
systems will likely propel the growth of this market."

Superior Energy Performance
Partnership
The board of directors of Pump Systems Matter™ (PSM), an
educational foundation designed to help North American pump users gain
competitive business advantages through pump system energy management
and performance optimization, today announced its endorsement of the
Department of Energy (DOE) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
"Superior Energy Performance" partnership. The Superior Energy
Performance partnership is a collaboration of industry, government, and
non-profit organizations that seek to improve the energy intensity of
U.S. manufacturing by 25% by 2017 through voluntary initiatives.

Rupture Panel for Hygienic and Sanitary
Operations
BROKEN ARROW, OK: To provide precision pressure relief for
applications where hygiene and sanitation are concerns, Oklahoma Safety
Equipment Co., Inc. (Oseco), a leader in pressure relief innovation,
introduces the MVRB (Metal Vent Reverse Buckling) rupture panel. The
MVRB can avert catastrophic explosions caused by overpressures in dust
collectors, conveyor systems, dryers and other equipment requiring
precise pressure relief. Its smooth surface prevents product buildup and
contamination, making it well-suited for hygienic and sanitary services.
The non-fragmenting design increases process safety in the event of
panel rupture. The MVRB is compatible with a wide range of environments,
performing consistently in high temperature applications up to
700°F. The MVRB is designed for high operating ratio applications in
the power generation, pharmaceutical, transportation and chemical
markets. It is the only rupture panel available that has a 90% operating
ratio - a design feature that is essential in demanding applications in
order to avoid premature panel rupture. --- Oseco Inc.

Two-Wire, Loop-Power Level Switch
SAN MARCOS, CA: Process and plant engineers will find the rugged
NuTec® LS2000 Level Switch from Fluid Components International (FCI)
provides highly reliable level monitoring and interface control in
demanding process industries that require precise measurement, low
maintenance, long-life and low instrument cost-of-ownership. The LS2000
Level Switch is designed for two-wire, 4 to 20 mA loop power that allows
the LS2000 to serve as a drop-in replacement for other two-wire
mechanical float and paddle switches without any wiring modifications
during plant retrofit projects, which simplifies installation and
reduces cost. The LS2000 is also available for 115/230 Vac or 24 Vdc
input power and a 6A relay output. --- Fluid Components
