Control of foaming in industrial processes presents many challenges in almost every market sector: pharma, brewing, paint manufacture, waste water treatment, oil & gas, food processing and more. To complicate matters, foam can be an integral [and important] part of a process and needs to...
Chances are you've heard the expression, "It ran like a well-oiled machine." There's a reason why this figure of speech is so often used. Simply put, proper oil flow is essential to making heavy machinery and equipment run the way it is supposed to. This is...
NIR probes are used in a wide range of applications from small-scale laboratory research to mass scale pharma, chemical, food, and beverage production processes to measure turbidity and solids concentration in flowing streams. And, although anyone outside of those industries might shudder when they hear the word...
If you want to do a good job, you need the right equipment. Sounds like common sense but even with the right equipment, you won't be effective if you don't know how to get the best out of it. Whether your work in a hospital, in...

Refex electrodes represent a revolutionary technology advance in pH and ORP measurement. They solve the key weakness of the reference electrode in traditional combination probe designs. Here’s how they work, and why you should use them. What do Refex electrodes do? First off, what exactly do Refex...
Inline photometers use light to provide real time measurement of color or concentration of components in a liquid (or gas) process stream. Photometers can be configured for all sorts of different purposes. The configuration and technique used will depend upon your specific measurement need. This post...
How to Clean pH Electrodes No matter what the issue is with your pH electrodes, there are some important rules that you need to follow, regardless of how you're cleaning them. Glass electrodes are extremely sensitive to external damage and need careful handling or you could...
