Auma has supplied 74 electric valve actuators with Modbus RTU communications and a SIMA master station control system for a tank farm operated by Shell Oman Marketing Company near Muscat, Oman.
A new range of part-turn gearboxes, the GQB series, extends the gearbox portfolio of electric actuator manufacturer AUMA. The GQB gearboxes combine compact design with superior quality and reliability. Engineered and manufactured in Germany, they have been specifically designed to meet the requirements for basic 90° applications with standard industrial valves such as butterfly and ball valves.
A new TÜV certificate confirms that Auma’s electric actuators have passed the most demanding corrosion protection tests and meet the requirements of EN ISO 12944-6 for corrosivity categories C5-M long (marine, coastal and offshore areas) and C5-I long (industrial areas with high humidity and aggressive atmospheres).
Electric actuator manufacturer Auma is again co-organizer of the Functional Safety Copenhagen (FSCPH)conference that will take place on 3rd and 4th May 2017 in Helsingør, Denmark.
A new version of the AUMA SA multi-turn actuator is suitable for continuous underwater use, thus opening up new applications of electric actuators in water supply systems, hydropower plants, civil engineering constructions for water applications, and specific offshore applications.
A new interface for AC .2 actuator controls now allows AUMA actuators to be integrated into Profinet networks. The increasingly popular Profinet standard gives the actuator manufacturer a second Industrial Ethernet-based networking option alongside Modbus TCP/IP.
Since 1 April, Dr Jörg Hoffmann has been the third joint managing director of Auma, joining Matthias Dinse and Henrik Newerla. In 2014, Auma as one of the leading manufacturers of electric actuators had started to replace its previous multi-brand strategy with market-oriented branding under the Auma name.
Auma was one of the approved manufacturers contracted to support the Water System Improvement Program (WSIP) led by the City and County of San Francisco Public Utility Commission.
Two new service engineers have been appointed by Auma Actuators Ltd. Steve Adams and Bill Armsden, both with strong engineering backgrounds, join the national UK field service team of the established supplier of modular electric actuators.
Godwin Pumps announced the launch of a new website, dedicated to its participation at bauma 2010 in Hall A6, Stand 406 at the New Munich Trade Fair Centre in Munich, Germany April 19 – 25.
