Converting from POWER SERIES™ to ASPYRE® SCR Power Controllers
Now that POWER SERIES™ power controllers have reached end-of-life status, transitioning to ASPYRE® power controllers is critical to keep process running. This guide is designed to outline the electrical, mechanical and ordering differences between these devices to ease the transition. Note, this guide is in reference to 60 amp to 210 amp ASPYRE devices only. Read more
Why Did This Heater Fail and Troubleshooting Corrections
Even after following instructions correctly and checking and rechecking the Watlow® installation manual, sometimes the flip of a switch does not activate an electric heater. In these cases, troubleshooting the problem can often lead to the most straightforward solutions to properly start a heater. When trying to assess heater failure, take stock of these troubleshooting questions that can help determine the immediate cause of the problem.
White Paper: Meeting Tighter Emissions Limits While Improving Diesel Engine Efficiency
New environmental legislation has created an engineering challenge for heavy-duty diesel engines.CO2 and NOx emissions must fall below stricter standards; at the same time greater engine efficiency has resulted in a corresponding loss of exhaust gas temperature, leading to lower catalytic activity. This is particularly concerning when it comes to NOx emissions for Cold Start and Low Load Cycles, as there is a lot of thermal inertia in the aftertreatment system.
White Paper: Better Heaters Mean More Innovative Analytical Equipment Designs
Advanced ceramic heaters, like Watlow's ULTRAMIC, provide significant advantages for analytical equipment design and marketing. Unlike older metal-sheathed heaters, these modern ceramic heaters are smaller, faster, more controllable, and more resistant to environmental contamination. This technology enhances product performance, design innovation, and accelerates time to market for analytical equipment manufacturers.
