4 Reasons to Use Control Valves in F&B Industry.

  1. Improve plant efficiency. Control valves reduce process variability to ensure consistent quality and energy efficiency.
  2. Support process automation. Automated control valves encourage continuous processing, which increases the productivity of the plant.
  3. Increase food safety. Control valves are crucial in keeping food and beverage flow lines sanitary by preventing leakage and contamination.
  4. Decreased unplanned downtime. Proper maintenance of control valves helps to keep lines running smoothly, minimizing downtime.

BRAAMD Inc. carries Dwyer Instrument Hi-Flow Control Valves.

DWYER – W.E. Anderson Hi-Flow™ control valves are single seated, top or cage guided globe valves – probably the simplest, from construction standpoint, yet most versatile control valve in use.

Heavy duty Hi-Flow™ control valves are ruggedly constructed of the highest quality materials, precision machined, and performance tested to assure years of trouble free service.

The valves feature an exceptional shut-off and leak rate and linear or equal percentage characteristics. Dwyer’s Series 2000VA/3000WA Hi-Flow™ Control Valve combines simple construction and versatility for applications like steam and water.

Elios 2 Versus Other Commercial Drones

ELIOS 2 VERSUS COMMERCIAL DRONES

For enclosed, confined spaces inspection, Elios 2 is the best commercial drone for the job. This is the best “caged” collision-tolerant drone in the world. Using cheaper commercial drones not designed for inaccessible places and critical inspections can put the asset, the plant and workers at risk. Very few safety officers, perhaps none, will allow sending other commercial drones inside tunnels, mines, manholes, sewers, chemical tanks, refineries, boilers, heat exchangers, turbine facilities, silos, stacks, pressure vessels, nuclear facilities, etc.  Elios 2 is specifically designed for hazardous, confined-space environments.

There are other commercial drones in the market but none specifically designed like Elios 2.  It is purposely built for industrial inspection, designed and manufactured by top-notch professionals in Switzerland. Other commercial drones may have high resolution cameras, others may have thermal cameras, some have propeller protection, some with longer flight time, but no drone offers the complete set of features like the Elios 2. The package includes a rugged case, toolkit, spare batteries and parts, ready for deployment any given time. Elios 2 is equipped with 10,000 lumens lighting, dustproof and oblique lighting designed for close quarter and even dark inspections. Elios 2 is designed with all aspects of industrial inspection considered: high quality data gathering, shockproof payload, total weight, intelligent stability, signal transmission in confined spaces, flight time, technology advanced lighting system, protective framing, distance lock and more. When considering safety, efficiency and data quality for industrial inspection, Elios 2 is the commercial drone you need.

The processing of data is where Elios 2 again delivers compared to other commercial drones. Elios 2 has bundled apps – Cockpit and Inspector. Operators can use cockpit software to document their data as they carry out inspection. The Inspector installed on the laptop allows the operator to view the high resolution video, get still images, see Point-of-Interest, study data, create thorough reports and later act on the data gathered. There are other commercial drones in the market but Elios 2 is the best and complete solution for industrial inspection.

Energy storage batteries are vital for Healthcare

Energy storage batteries are vital for Healthcare.

There are a vast number of patients that rely on medical equipment everyday, in the US alone, 2.5 million people need power critical medical equipment every day. Across the world, the ability to have medical equipment work unerringly is non-negotiable. More than ever, as the world faces this health crisis, now is the time to look at the backup power system integrity.

Those living remotely are more susceptible, reliance on electricity for their medical equipment and therefore health leaves them feeling uncertain, especially when help maybe miles away. With countries and states that are susceptible to natural disaster, vulnerable patients can be left without power. Natural disasters, health cris and other natural phenomenon are not going anywhere, which means our dependency on medical devices is unlikely to let up. Backup power during power outages for the medically vulnerable is something healthcare executives should be looking into.

It is not just life-saving equipment that is at risk when there is a power outage, equipment and independent living aids are at risk too. Those relying on stair lifts, bath hoists or even just refrigerators for the safe storage of medication will also suffer.

In times where there are power outages, and backup is required, advances in battery technology are vital to keeping medical equipment running. Progress made in the Lithium battery technologies means that more lightweight and compact options are becoming more readily available. These batteries can be made compliant for several different applications including mobility equipment, medical carts or can be custom built for equipment such as nebulizers or pacemakers.

EverExceed LiFePO4 battery system ensures optimal performance of each medical equipment. These battery systems play vital role for even the most demanding applications, giving them greater energy density, lower weight and longer life capability. Also the advanced integrated BMS ensures the safety of the battery system so that the critical medical equipments can be operated with great reliability and safely. EverExceed LFP battery offers a worry free operation and guarantees no fire, no explosion.

If you have any questions regarding LFP Batteries and Energy storage systems, please feel free to communicate with us. Braamd Inc. is an authorized distributor of Everexceed Industrial Power Products in the Philippines.

This Elios 2 drone is able to inspect 40% more of the blade than a rope inspection would allow. There is no roping required before inspection and there is no need for human entry in the turbine.

This Flyability Elios 2 Inspection Drone can go beyond 30 meters inside the blade and the inspection can be done in a matter of minutes. High resolution camera on board the drone captures clear details of the asset. There is live video feed on the tablet and the videos can later be downloaded for more detailed analysis in your laptop and the included Inspector software.

If you need additional information, feel free to contact us. We can send budgetary quotation and also do product demonstration of this Flyability Elios 2 Inspection drone.Photo from Flyability.
