    Small Pnumatic on/off valve

    I need a small >.5in pneumatic valve that is electronically actuated. I need to for a sorting machine that will send a blast of air when a voltage is sent to it. my idea was to have one side normally pressurized and then when i apply a voltage it opens the valve and sends a jet of air out...

    Plate style heat exchanger for a MHF

    I have a problem For one of my projects I have a municipal Multiple Hearth Furnace that we are trying to rob some heat for process water. The top of the incinerator is a huge metal plate and it is about 300 F. I need to find a flat heat exchanger that will transfer water from the furnace to...

    Venturi style steam trap

    so basically what you want is a scrubber to get fine particulate out of the air correct. this works extremely well venturipak by envirocare is an example of this. the faster the air goes the more particulate matter that is extracted you want a mach number of 4+ at the venturi throat. Unless I...

    Dual thermocouple wiring

    no I definately hooked them up in paralell I thought that would be the problem too. but just to make sure I hooked 2 T/C + to + on plug and 2 T/C - to - on plug is there only one way to hook up a thermocouple isnt it just two disimilar metals? I will try to hook reverse polarities on the two TCs...

    Dual thermocouple wiring

    Well I wired the two thermocouples in paralell and it seems that the tepmerature is wayyyy too hot for what its supposed to be I would say around twice as hot as it should be any suggestions about why this is acting up like this??

    Dual thermocouple wiring

    so if you hook them up in paralell it will give you the average of the two TCs?

    Dual thermocouple wiring

    Im a Mechanical engineer so I dont really know what a thistd amplifier is I googled it but it came up with nothing if you could elaborate on what that is that wousl help maybe its just a spelling error but I dont know.

    Dual thermocouple wiring

    I was wondering if there is a way to wire two thermocouples so that they send the highest of the two signals to the signal processor. I have a single temp reader but there are two things that I need to measure the temperature that should remain about the same temperature all of the time. I...
