Carbon-neutral RO system, by Nimbus Water Systems

The WaterMaker Five RO system from Nimbus delivers 30 percent higher flow from the faucet while reducing water waste by 50 percent. The system is equipped with a 50-gpd (189-L/d) membrane and has been certified CarbonNeutral® by The Carbon Neutral Company. The system's CO2 emissions were reduced to net zero through a combination of internal reductions and high-quality carbon offsets. www.nimbuswater.com orders@nimbuswater.com

 
Separation filters, by Automated Pure Water Inc.

Automated Pure Water, Inc.'s Sand Trap separates and settles out sand, shale and oxidized organics. This is accomplished by running water through an internal swirl chamber then into a diverting plate, which allows heavier particles to settle to the bottom of the tank for blow down. Features include 0.75-inch (19.05-mm) blow-down drain, one-inch (25.4-mm) inlets and outlets, and 24-gpm (90.85-L/m) flow rate. No moving parts, no backwashing or electricity required, no filter cartridges or screens to clean or replace. www.apwinc.com (772) 567-2488

 
Whole-house systems, by Siam Cast Nylon Co., Ltd.

Siam Cast Nylon Co. Ltd. offers a variety of whole-house filtration units that filter up to 1,320 gallons (5,000 liters) at flow rates up to 0.5 gpm (two L/m) before filter maintenance is required. Filter types include polypropylene, polyethylene, activated carbon or ion exchange resins. These compact systems are ideal for removing calcium and magnesium; reducing dirt, sand, silt, scale and rust particles, and protecting appliance fixtures and pipelines. www2.purefilter.com scn_export@purfilter.com

 
Multiport selector valves, by Plast-O-Matic Valves, Inc.

Plast-O-Matic Valves, Inc. introduces its Series S compact multiport selector valves for high-purity or corrosive environments, available in standard two-way, three-way, four-way and five-way configurations with a variety of flow paths. Selector valves can be stacked in multiple combinations for manifold applications; they can also be custom drilled to provide unique flow paths for laboratory sampling, testing, custom mixing and other multi-port uses. The valves are available manual or actuated and are suitable for liquid applications to 125 psi. Series S uses a machined PTFE rotor to direct flow to or from the selected port. Body material options include PVC, CPVC, PVDF, PTFE and natural polypropylene. There are no metal parts in the valves. www.plastomatic.com info@plastomatic.com

 
Flow conditioners, by Westfall Manufacturing Company

Westfall Manufacturing Co. introduces its patent-pending Model 3000 flow conditioner that resolves turbulence issues with minimal head loss (K=0.579). The units mount directly into piping systems. They feature four leading tabs and four anti-swirl plates that suppress turbulence and swirl to produce a fully developed velocity profile within eight diameters downstream. Suitable for any fluid, these compact flow conditioners are ideal for increasing flow measurement accuracy, especially when using ultrasonic flow meters. The units are available in sizes from 0.5 to 120" (1.52 mm to 36.57 meters) in diameter. Easy to install and requiring virtually no maintenance, they can be fabricated from PVC, FRP, 316 SS, with or without Teflon® coating and other engineering materials. www.westfallmfg.com rglanville@westfallmfg.net

 
Chlorine measurement cells, by Severn Trent Services

Severn Trent Services offers three additional Series KC4000 measuring cells, used in conjunction with the MicroChem®2 transmitter/controller to measure residual chlorine (free and total), chlorine dioxide, ozone, iodine and bromine. No pH correction is needed when measuring free chlorine (pH 4 to 7.5), chlorine dioxide, or ozone. Optional pH, conductivity and/or ORP measurements are also available, and can be measured simultaneously with most KC versions. The expanded cells include a measuring cell for low-pressure samples at 0.1 to 0.5 bar (1.4 to 7 psig), a cell with IP 66 case that provides protection against dust and water, and a cell for hot-water applications at 35.6 to 149°F (2 to 5°C). They are mounted on a differential pressure regulator and include a PT100 temperature probe and operate in a sample range of 0.5 to 4 bar (7 to 60 psig) and temperature from 35.6 to 104°F (2 to 40°C). www.severntrentservices.com mgarner@severntrentservices.com

 
Radiant power detector, by Gigahertz-Optik

Gigahertz-Optik, Inc. introduces its ISD-1.6-Si-1 and ISD-1.6-Si-FC-1 radiant power detectors featuring a compact, 16-mm-diameter integrating sphere for beam-emitter type light sources, like laser diode dyes and optical fibers. The detectors' primary function is to fit inside existing equipment and tight, enclosed spaces to measure beam power through its three-mm-measurement port. Silicon photodiode detectors offer a wide spectral range from 400 to 1,100 nm and a typical absolute sensitivity of 200 A/W at 630 nm (500 mW max power). Detector heads are traceably calibrated and certified to international standards. www.gigahertz-optik.com b.angelo@gigahertz-optik.com

 
Leak detection website, by Fluid Conservation Systems

Fluid Conservation Systems (FCS) introduces its newly redesigned website, featuring detailed information for the company's full selection of leak detection technology products. The easy-to-navigate site includes a complete library of manuals, descriptions and specifications for all FCS products; downloadable software updates are available for equipment. The website also includes an interactive map for customers to find local sales representatives or distributor contact information, simply by clicking on the appropriate state. Coming soon, the website will feature on-line ordering, as well as a promotions page with current special offers. www.fluidconservation.com sales@fluidconservation.com

 
Ultrafiltration systems, by A.J. Antunes & Co.

A.J. Antunes & Co.'s VZN series of VIZION products are technologically advanced systems configured to fit into any food service location. They remove particles as small as 0.015 microns, and feature template-assisted crystallization (TAC) to protect equipment against limescale buildup. The systems provide self-cleaning ultrafiltration ahead of low-cost carbon cartridges, which extends cartridge life and lowers ownership costs. www.vizionwater.com
