IN FOCUS

The oil and gas industry is increasingly relying on electromagnetic flowmeters, commonly known as magmeters, as a crucial tool to address the ever-growing challenges of managing produced water – the water that is brought to the surface during oil and gas extraction operations. Not only is the volume of produced water surging, but at the same time, the industry faces mounting constraints on its use and disposal.

Armstrong Fluid Technology has introduced five new models of S&H circulators (H-32, H-41, S-25, S-35 and S-45/S46). These new circulators include a 1/3 hp ECM motor that saves 20% on energy. All S&H circulators are available in a permanently lubricated, maintenance-free design.

New research by a Swedish university and tests at one of Canada’s most advanced engineering laboratories have provided the latest independent results verifying how self-lubricating ‘ThorPlas-Blue’ bearings out-perform all other options when used for hydro-turbine wicket gate applications.

With its application-specific seals and materials, Freudenberg Sealing Technologies enables high and sustainable yields in hydroelectric power generation.

Wolong Electric America is proud to highlight its Permanent Magnet Direct Drive Motors, engineered to optimize performance, improve efficiency, and reduce total cost of ownership across a wide range of demanding environments.

Severe-duty motors are designed to withstand the most demanding operational conditions, where extreme environments challenge equipment performance and longevity. Industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, mining, metals, pulp and paper, water and wastewater, and cement production rely on these motors for their durability and consistent performance.

SEW-EURODRIVE is proud to announce that GearOil by SEW-EURODRIVE is now available as an option with its heavy industry gear units. This synthetic lubricant, formulated and tested by SEWEURODRIVE engineers specifically for SEW-EURODRIVE gear geometries and thermal loads, is now offered as part of the factory build and service ecosystem for products such as the X.e and MC-series gear units.

Regal Rexnord linear motion solutions brand, Thomson, has introduced key enhancements to its H-Track electro-hydraulic actuator, making it more resilient in harsh and high-moisture environments.
