ENGINE PRECLEANERS
Maradyne Corporation's Turbo precleaners are intended to protect machinery from micro-abrasive dust before it can enter the air filter, helping extend
equipment life. The precleaners' straight-through air-flow path forces dirty
incoming air to enter at the top of the units and flow into guide vanes. The air is
then directed into a high-velocity air-powered rotor chamber, which is powered
by the machine's engine and rotating at about 10,000 rpm. Engineered blades
then create centrifugal force, spinning more than 85 percent of contaminants
out of the unit and allowing only purified air into the machinery.

OIL SENSOR SYSTEM
The new WearSens oil sensor system from CMC
Instruments is engineered to detect changes in a
machine long before any damage occurs, including abrasive wear or oil aging. Easy to install or
retro-fit, the system allows for online and continuous measurement. It can be utilized with wind
turbines, oil-lubricated turbines, test stands for
automotive and marine applications, as well as
for the analysis of lubricant performance. Decentralized monitoring makes it ideal for remote or
offshore locations.

WIRE ROPE LUBRICATOR
The Viper wire rope lubricator from
Lubrication Engineers Inc. promises fast
and effective one-pass lubrication of
wire ropes from 5/16 to 2 5/8 inches
in diameter at speeds up to 6,670 feet
per hour. Engineered to eliminate the
slow, labor-intensive task of manual
lubrication, the wire rope lubricator
forces lubricant under high pressure
(up to 5,500 psi) right to the core of
the wire rope. It is available in both
kit and component form.

FLOW METERS
Badger Meter's Model IOG flow meters were created to deliver exacting measurement of
viscous and caustic fluids such as oils, coolants, fuels, lubricants, etc. The meter line measures liquid flows as low as 0.07 gallons per minute (gpm) and up to 185 gpm. The oval
gear configuration offers accuracy and dependability with a minimum number of wearable
parts for long service life and easy field maintenance. The Model IOG line also
features a compact size that is intended for either vertical or horizontal
installation into confined areas where space is at a premium.
