FEATURED PRODUCT
The 1/4 NPT FullStream liquid atomizing spray nozzle provides a full cone spray pattern for pressurized liquids. The tangential-flow design is vaneless, creating internal features to resist clogging while producing a uniform distribution in a round pattern with medium to large droplets. Right-angle design is compact and operates to 100 psig liquid pressure. The nozzles are said to work well with liquids containing particulate. Stainless-steel construction provides durability and corrosion resistance. Nozzles are CE compliant and available in a variety of flow rates.

Maintenance Status App
The Smartenance app, for smart phone, tablet, or desktop, connects maintenance plans and activity status. The vendor-neutral app uses a mobile maintenance calendar as an app for smartphone and tablets on the shop floor and a desktop web-browser interface for managing and documenting maintenance tasks in the office. The app is said to be simple, quick to install, and self-explanatory with three levels available.

Insight OMI app introduces AI (artificial intelligence) capabilities into the AVEVA System Platform, formerly Wonderware, and leverages predictive early warning and automatic detection of unusual operational behavior. This provides users with early notification so they can quickly resolve issues before they become critical business problems such as unplanned downtime and production losses. A simple management interface enables operations, maintenance, and production teams to train the AI engine to adapt to the enterprise’s specific implementation. An intuitive thumbs-up or thumbsdown confirmation ensures AI-driven notifications are relevant to user needs and support overall enterprise objectives, with no programming or data-science knowledge required. As anomalous patterns are identified, they can be captured and presented by the app within an organization’s on-premise HMI/SCADA solution.
