The new series of flow meters from Kem Kuppers, the Tricor Pro Plus, has advanced digital
signal processing and is specifically designed for applications where the need for small construction dimensions is a decisive factor. A flow meter from the PRO Plus series is the perfect
choice for challenging applications. The zero point is stable even under varying operational
conditions, the construction is robust, and the design is well planned. These meters are reliable with high measurement accuracy, long-term stability and high reproducibility – criteria that
are in particularly high demand in the process industry. Because the flow meters in the series
use a high measurement frequency that is far above the resonance range for normally occurring vibrations, they are ideal for applications where high vibration levels and other disruptive
signals occur. The series also features top-class signal processing and therefore offers an unrivalled performance package.
The PRO Plus series mass flow meter is available in three versions, which can be complemented with a local or external display: DN15 [½”], DN25 [1″] and DN50 [2″].
For digital data communication there are several options: Modbus, HART 7.5 communication
(HCF), Profibus PA, and Profibus DP. A 4-20mA analogue signal output is included with the
HART.
The new flow meters are designed to meet Namur NE 132.

To supplement the portfolio of Pentronics’ own EX rated sensors, we are now also launching a thermocouple sensor suitable for EX environments, Model 8108390. The thermocouple sensor is a more robust technology than the previously existing resistance thermometer and the thermocouple is very durable, for example in handling and installation steps. The thermocouple is also considerably more temperature resistant than Pt100 and therefore suitable in high temperature processes.

This year’s first issue of our Customer magazine Pentronic News includes tips on simplifying the installation of temperature sensors and how to use cabling correctly. You can also read about our successful participation in an industrial trade fair and where you can find us at fairs this year. Another article describes how Pentronic encourages and supports young entrepreneurs. We also celebrate the 30th anniversary of our customer magazine this year and describe the journey from the very first issue to today’s version.

Pentronic presents a new product version of Heitronics’ type CT13: CT13 Chemistry (article number 06-00613).
This IR pyrometer is designed for extremely aggressive environments such as sterilisation using aggressive cleaning agents with concentrated acids and alkalis.
To perform in the demanding environment, the CT13 Chemistry is equipped with a diamond window and a flange made of PVDF polymer (polyvinylidene difluoride) and has an IP67 ingress protection rating.

The normal measurement range is -50 to 500 °C. The signal output can be 4-20mA current output, voltage output or data communication, and these alternatives can be configured by the user.

In conclusion, the CT13 Chemistry is suitable for applications in the following industries:
• Chemical
• Petrochemical
• Pharmaceutical

The picture shows a CT13 with a DN150 flange.
Other mounting options are available on request.

Autumn is here and we are retreating to our “dens” and turning up the heat. To do so requires energy, which is not always good for the environment. We have previously written about taking advantage of the sun’s rays to supply our future energy needs. We now continue this theme, and in this issue you can read about fossil-free energy from the forest. And don’t miss the articles about how we at Pentronic are equipping ourselves to increase our accessibility, service and expertise via recruitment, developing technology and training.

A compression fitting, also called a screw fitting, makes a
temperature sensor complete. They are used in most industries,
including food and packaging, pharmaceutical manufacturing, vehicles and
engines, the process industry, as well as research and education.
