Show Stoppers

 

 

    

This year's Show Stoppers are an eclectic mix of products from the expo floor of our huge show in Nashville, Tenn. Some are brand new; others boast interesting, recently introduced new features or technologies; while others are tried-and-true tools with a market following. All of these products have one thing in common: They provide functionality that helps professionals be more productive.

 

Air Sentry® Model X-100 Gearbox Breather "The First Line of Defense"
X-100 desiccant breathers feature moisture removing silica gel, 2-micron solid particle filtration and pressure-relieving check valves. Its dual design blocks outside contaminants from entering gearboxes, while eliminating excessive expansion and contraction pressure. X-100 blocks contamination from entering the gearbox, while capturing built-up condensation inside, leaving lubricants clean and dry. Check valves open on demand during heating and cooling cycles to provide infinite pressure relief to gearbox seals. Air Sentry® is "The First line of Defense" in contamination control.

ARGO-HYTOS Continuous Oil Conditioning Monitoring
Argo-Hytos presents the new LubCos H2O+ lubrication condition sensor for continuous oil monitoring. It offers the opportunity to prevent machine failures as well as prolong maintenance and oil change intervals by means of appropriate measures. The LubCos measures and documents changes in hydraulic fluids and lubricants. The sensor records four different physical oil characteristics as well as its periodic change: temperature, relative oil humidity and water activity, relative permittivity, and conductivity of the fluid.

Portable Oil Diagnostic System
Intelligent and robust, the HIAC Portable Oil Diagnostic System (PODS) measures, stores and reports oil condition parameters essential for reliable hydraulic systems operation. The PODS analyzes fluids and lubricants in online or bottle sampling modes to determine the machine's operating condition immediately. This instant analysis is as accurate and precise as traditional laboratory analysis that normally takes weeks. Thus, providing a real-time assessment of the oil under operating conditions.

Parker PVS Portable Oil Purification System
The PVS works off-line to reduce both free and dissolved water, solid contamination and entrained air or gases. By controlling and/or eliminating these harmful contaminants, you can expect reduced downtime, lower component replacement costs, reliable system performance and an overall reduction in oil consumption. The PVS is also a low-maintenance PM tool to add to your arsenal in the war on system contamination. Once operational, the system will run unattended. The control panel offers self-diagnosing indicator lights that inform the operator of a shutdown condition, as well as the specific cause. Another feature of the product is portability. Units are fabricated with casters and forklift guides as standard. Lifting eyes and even trailer mounting are available options. These features allow for easy relocation from one system reservoir to another.

TestMate™ Contamination Monitor
The TestMate Contamination Monitor optically measures solid particle contamination in hydraulic and lubricating fluids. The TCM is among the newest generation of particle monitors that continuously measure solid contamination in fluid. Enclosed in a 4-inch-diameter case, the TCM utilizes an optical sensor and measures particles in four sizes: >4, >6, >14 and >21 microns. Measurement results can be output as a contamination code according to ISO 4406:1999 or SAE AS 4059 (D). The TCM is designed for connection to hydraulic and lubrication lines with pressures up to 1450 psi (100 bar) and viscosities up to 4635 SUS (100 cSt). A small flow of oil (between 30 ml/min and 300 ml/min) is diverted for measurement purposes.
