BIOFUEL UPGRADE KITS
CIRCOR INTERNATIONAL INC.’s Biofuel Upgrade Kits for IMO marine pumps provide a sustainable retrofit solution engineered to support fuels such as fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) and hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) in line with ISO 8217:2024 requirements. The kit features optimized seals, and all components are constructed from high-grade, chemical-resistant materials that maximize product lifespan and reduce long-term maintenance demands. Marine operators benefit from a retrofit process requiring no adjustments to temperature or pressure ranges, ensuring pump performance and efficiency are preserved after upgrade.
SMART MOTOR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The TeSys Tera from SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC is a smart motor management system that protects, monitors and controls low-voltage motors. Key capabilities include predictive diagnostics with pre-fault alerts and trend analysis to help prevent failures; motor-level energy monitoring to identify inefficiencies and reduce operating costs; load shedding and auto-restart to maintain uptime during power disruptions; multiprotocol connectivity for integration with existing SCADA and DCS systems; and independent protection that remains active even if PLC or network communication is lost.
LONG NOSE PLIERS
The Caiman 7.5” multipurpose screw extractor long nose pliers with crimper from VAMPIRE TOOLS can remove stripped, rusted or damaged screws, stubborn fasteners in hard-to-reach areas and specialty screw heads sized Ø2 - 5.5 mm (0.08” - 0.22”). The crimper comes equipped with intermeshed teeth for twisting wire, bending and gripping small metalwork components. Industry uses include aerospace, avionics, automotive repairs, electrical, HVAC, medical service field and maintenance, repair and operations (MRO).
COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEM
The Performance Package compressed air system from SAYLOR-BEALL comes equipped with an advanced aftercooler, breather vent and quiet intake filter. The system also includes an oversized intake filter that captures particulates from ambient air before they enter the compressor. The crankcase breather is designed to vent pressure pulses directly to the atmosphere. More stable compressed air temperature reduces the likelihood of thermal expansion/contraction damage and pressure drop from cooling air in tanks, and reduced wear and cleaner air extend usable lifespans across the entire system.
SELECTIVE SOLDER NOZZLES
COUNT ON TOOLS’ Pillarhouse-compatible selective solder nozzles deliver steady solder flow and clean joints, even on boards with tight spacing or more complex layouts. They are manufactured to maintain consistency from run to run, helping reduce variation in the process and minimize rework. They are suited for production environments where stability and repeatability are critical. Custom nozzle designs are available.
MULTISTAGE CENTRIFUGAL PUMP
The Model 306 multistage centrifugal pump from ZOELLER PUMP COMPANY features a pump housing made of durable cast iron, a heavy-duty 56 frame and double ball bearing motors for continuous operation. Discharge can be rotated to any one of four positions for horizontal or vertical service line. Normal wearing parts are easily removed for service and replacement without disturbing the suction or discharge piping. Applications include booster service, water circulation, liquid transfer, cooling systems, jockey pump service and general service in farm, commercial and industrial applications.
