Circle No. 127 www.maritimereporterinfo.com Geislinger Debuts GMS Mark4 At the SMM exhibition in Hamburg last month, Geislinger unveiled its fourth genera- tion of an instrument designed to continuously monitor torsional vibration amplitudes. The instrument — Geislinger Monitoring GMS Mark4 — has three monitoring functions for which the software is tailored to the specific requirements: detection of engine misfiring; mon- itoring of the Geislinger Damper; and monitoring of the coupling. For processing the calculated val- ues, the system unit can be connected to a PC and the data can be sent directly to Geislinger for analysis. Type approval is from DNV, electrical and environmental testing according to IACS E-10 rules. The company reasons that optimal operation of the engine is delivered from an early detec- tion of problems, yielding increased service life. Circle No. 128 www.maritimereporterinfo.com K-TEK The KM26 Magnetic Level Gauge from K- TEK not only measures acids, solvents, petro- chemicals and liquid to liquid inter- faces in a variety of industries but is safe for total and interface applica- tions that are toxic, corrosive, flam- mable or high pressure and yet is easy and safe to maintain with no gauge glasses to clean. In addition, the KM26 MGL is cost-effective. It can cost far less than replacement glass, gaskets & cushions. K-TEK is a NA manufacturer of mgls that offer extruded outlet connections that attach to the KM26 to the storage vessel eliminating distortions to the chamber affect- ing float travel and alignment problems. Circle No. 122 www.maritimereporterinfo.com , HBM HBM data acquisition systems and software has released its new T10FS series of torque transducers. Featuring higher speeds and smaller mass moments of iner- tia than its counterpart the T10F Torque Flange, the T10FS is designed for high- performance automotive testing applications where high speeds with accuracy are required. The T10FS is based on a modified T10F measuring body, and similarly uses the transverse stress measurement principle. Primary applications for the T10FS include Formula One engine test stands, transmission test stands and chassis roll test stands. Circle No. 105 www.maritimereporterinfo.com Kistler Kistler now offers cost-effective, long-life pres- sure transmitters that are designed for use in diesel engine injectors and hydraulic systems and are equally suitable for heavy oil engines and for rapid pressure drops even into the negative range. A Kistler patented bonding technology ensures that the thin-film measuring element is permanently bonded to the sensor body, thus permitting extremely high pressures of up to 4000 bar and a service of more than 50 million pressure cycles even at maximum amplitude.
