FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TUCSON, AZ – The global climate crisis raises questions about what a hotter, drier world will mean the future of our plants, animals, and ecosystems. An interdisciplinary team of more than 80 scientists from around the world came together to conduct an unprecedented experiment tracking the impacts of drought and drought recovery […]
Neil Hartmann, CTO Alicat absolute pressure controllers enable direction of cryogen pressures ensuring precise temperature. Cryogens are loosely defined as gases which liquefy at or below 120°K under standard pressure (760 Torr).1 Cryogens are used for applications including cryopreservation, superconductivity and superfluidity. All of these applications share a need for temperatures under the previously […]
Automatic paint sprayers, like those used in the automotive industry, require a constant flow of gas and paint to evenly apply a coat of paint to a surface. While atomizing the paint, the amount gas and paint supplied to the electric field can be adjusted to shape the stream of paint. This creates a consistent, […]
Specially designed SAE to Tri-clamp® adapters allow for easy adaption of Alicat BIO Mass Flow Meters and Controllers to customer control systems. Alicat, the world’s fastest flow controller company, now offers adapters designed to adapt BIO series Mass Flow Meters and Controllers to the popular Tri-clamp® system. The […]
As the Earth’s climate changes, it is expected that ecosystems around the world will be subjected to increased water stress and/or drought. It is difficult to forecast the range of impacts climate change will have on soil, air, and water quality. In 2019, a group of interdisciplinary scientists from around the world came together to […]
There are many different serial interfaces but both RS232 and RS485 are some of the most popular. Even with dozens of new serial interfaces these are still the go to for many of our mass flow applications. Which interface is best for my application? The important differences between the two interfaces have to do with […]
