There are a myriad of differing fan variations. Two of the most common varieties are axial and centrifugal fans. Howden, a global provider of quality solutions for air and gas handling, provides both. Do you know the difference between the two? They differ greatly in design and function. Depending on…

The Maxon 5000 is a closed shut-off valve used in industrial boilers, furnaces, burner systems, fuel supply lines, ovens, kilns and other heating applications or processes. These valves are created to shut-off fuel instantaneously and automatically if any interruption should occur in the electric power supply. The electro-mechanical nature of…

The Eclipse Butterfly Valve works to control air or gas flow for your combustion system. Reliable and easy to maintain — helping you reduce direct operating costs and minimize the time required for valve maintenance. What is a butterfly valve? A butterfly valve is a quarter-turn rotational motion valve that…

Isomembrane high temperature technologies reduce costs and assure compliance High Temperature Technologies (HTT) are a leading method for solving air in-leakage issues and reducing emissions due to extra cycling in plants. The impact of cycling is not to be underestimated, as not only does costly air in-leakage occur, but a…

High-temperature operations call for highly specific conditions to regulate the heat for safety and effectiveness. We’ve come a long way in the world of industrial fan and blower technology, with more powerful equipment emerging to provide more selective control over the environment. This type of customized performance is critical for…

Industrial fans have their own nuanced differences, and what type you select has a lot of factors involved. Common uses include dust collection, combustion air, grain drying, wind tunnels, and material conveying. While searching for the right fan for your industry operations, it’s important to explore all of the available…

Selecting a desuperheating mechanism is a task dependent mostly on the specific application or industry for which it’s needed. The SPX Flow brand of technology not only offers a wide variety of desuperheaters for multiple different purposes, but is also helping generate cost-cutting, efficient processes across the food and beverage…

There are numerous options for industrial burners across a wide variety of industrial applications, but whether natural gas or oil-fired burners are the right choice depends on several different factors and circumstances. Both varieties offer long lasting endurance and highly specific needs. Honeywell’s partner Maxon manufactures both kinds and recognizes…

Most industries use machinery that is hydraulically powered or driven by gases. Those hydraulic applications require controlled regulation of the gases to avoid machine breakdowns or operator injuries, and the use of flammable gas escalates the need for careful management. Using the right gas pressure regulators for the job can…

The pace of American manufacturing processes has picked up as offshore competition presses U.S. companies to produce more, faster, cheaper. One unfortunate side effect of that pressure is that general care and maintenance of industrial equipment are often put off in order to run "just one more" line of production.…
