p r o d u c t n e w s c o n t i n u e d information and tools they need to monitor the health of their fleets in real time, allow- ing mines to proactively reduce compo- nent degradation and prevent catastrophic failures. MineCare 3 builds upon this field- proven foundation with new features, including cloud-based deployment, geo- graphic map view, and advanced, intelli- gent data collection, monitoring and analytics capabilities. Users can specify continuous or conditional data-monitoring options via dynamic, user-configurable dashboards, in support of specific mainte- nance management goals, and then per- form predictive trending for early detection of abnormal behavior, rates of change, and parameters outside of normal operating ranges. www.mmsi.com Coupling Installation Videos R e x n o r d r e c e n t l y e x p a n d e d i t s v i d e o library on its YouTube channel by adding f i v e n e w c o u p l i n g h o w - t o i n s t a l l a t i o n videos, which brings the total of featured videos on the channel to more than 40. The new videos provide a quick refer- ence on coupling installation while also showcasing the ease of installation, espe- cially the replace-in-place feature. Each video is four minutes or less. www.rexnord.com Hardfacing Alloys S t o o d y a n n o u n c e d i t h a s a d d e d n e w nickel-based tungsten carbide consum- ables to its product line, including sever- a l n e w w i r e f o r m u l a t i o n s a s w e l l a s new PTA and laser cladding powder fam- ilies, all designed for extreme abrasion resistance. The nickel-based tungsten carbide consumables are developed for and used in some of the harshest indus- trial applications. Recognized for durability and perfor- mance in the face of extreme abrasion, impact and other wear conditions, these stick electrodes, wires and now PTA and laser cladding powders are used to restore damaged components and to overlay parts to extend serviceable life. www.stoody.com Intelligent Power Meter The Shark 200 meter now supports email on alarm, which allows the power meter to alert an end user when an alarm condition occurs. Such alarms can include over/under voltage, high demand, break- ers' operations and many other important power system anomalies. In addition, the device now supports the ability to post energy reads on a scheduled basis using SMTP protocol. With this new technology, the meter can send this data out to a cloud- based software system for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Data can be sent to a cloud server that meters power usage, apparatus status, and many other func- tions. www.electroind.com Smart Valves Flowrox's Smart Series products will be equipped with intelligent solutions, a transformation currently under way that will ensure connectivity via the internet, allowing the consistent monitoring of valve and pump systems to reduce unplanned downtime and help guarantee spare part availability. www.flowrox.com Wireless Gateway The Modbus DIN Mount Gateway com- bines a high-power radio with gateway electronics in a compact DIN mounted module with external SMA antenna con- nections for installation flexibility in remote monitoring applications. Remote Sensing Systems consist of a gateway and nodes that connect to remote assets and extract data from or send control data to those devices through other nodes and/or the gateway. The gateway serves as a two- way interface, connecting asset managers to a remote mesh network of assets using industry-standard Modbus protocol. All sensor data is stored in Modbus format. www.signal-fire.com Sealed Internal Gear Pumps EnviroGear G Series pumps (formerly known as Maag Industrial) use only two moving parts and operate equally well in both directions while providing a positive, non-pulsating flow. Its innovative design provides multiple inlet and outlet position- ing, a single end-clearance adjustment and easy drive-end access for ease of mainte- nance and adjustability. G Series pumps are available in both cast iron and stainless steel and are extremely reliable, durable and cost effective for challenging industrial applications involving both thin and highly viscous liquids up to 431,000 cSt. Interchangeable with 95% of the internal gear pumps on the market, EnviroGear G Series pumps allow easy equipment upgrades with no piping changes, no driver changes, no coupling changes, no flow rate changes and no baseplate changes. www.psgdover.com 44 www.coalage.com January 2016
