BWB Technologies
Model XP Flame Photometer

The BWB- XP is a high quality, high performance instrument employing modern technology to measure alkali and alkaline earth metals Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Lithium (Li), Calcium (Ca) and Barium (Ba). Liquid samples, when introduced to a flame fuelled by propane or lpg, will emit light of a specific wavelength, the intensity of which will be proportional to the concentration of the ions present.  The principle has been understood for over one hundred years, but the BWB-XP brings 21st century technology to the technique, making analysis more reliable, accurate and simple than ever before.

High Cycle Life Plastic Pinch Valve

Plast-O-Matic Valves, Inc. has developed an all-thermoplastic, air operated pinch valve with a newly designed sleeve element that lasts up to five times longer than traditional designs. The sleeve ele-ment in Series HSA is a patent-pending design featuring variable thicknesses and a tapered shape. It is molded from EPDMh2, a new formulation of Ethelyne-Propylene-Diene-Monomer using a proprietary curing process for greater elasticity, durability, and longevity. This elastomer, combined with the new design, enables the pinch element to achieve over 1,000,000 cycles under test conditions. Further Information:
