  • The Neles™ NDX 2.0 delivers on sustainability

    Many have asked what’s so different about the new Neles NDX 2.0 valve controller. While there are several technical developments worth discussing, we’ll start by looking at the considerable increase in the potential to improve the sustainability of valve assemblies and the processes they are a part of. The new Neles NDX has a far greater versatility for different actuator types and sizes. The 2.0 is pretty much a universal, one for all solution that serves equally well ...

  • Tru-Grid™ Scan

    What does a Tru-Grid™ Scan do? A Tru-Grid™ Scan of a packed distillation tower provides a density profile of the process inside the tower. The power of the technology is that the scan is done whilst the tower is operating so real-time information about how the tower is performing at that instant is obtained. The scan ‘sees through’ the vessel wall allowing determination of what is happening inside without the need to shut down. The scan produces a density profile of the ...
