PCX System: Parapet Davit from OZ Lifting Products
OZ Lifting Products’ new patent-pending PCX System provides water and wastewater facilities with a removable, non-penetrating davit solution for material handling from solid concrete parapet walls. Designed as a complete engineered system, the PCX Clamp secures to parapets from 6 to 18 inches without drilling or permanent modification, providing a reliable, removable base for the PCX 250 davit crane. The system handles loads up to 250 pounds and offers a maximum 62-inch reach and 87-inch hook height. The PCX 250 installs into the PCX Clamp in seconds using OZ’s Quick Connect System, allowing crews to deploy, remove and relocate the system between lift points. Four boom height adjustments and 360-degree rotation provide flexibility for a variety of facility maintenance applications. Made in the U.S. from durable steel with an exterior-grade industrial powder coat, the PCX System provides a practical, reusable solution where permanent installation is impractical, undesirable, or not an option. 800-749-1064; www.ozliftingproducts.com/product-category/davit-cranes/pcx-system
Flomatic Valves Sewair-Combo NXC combination air valve
Flomatic Valves’ new Sewair‑Combo NXC is a Next Generation Compact combination air valve engineered to provide reliable air release, vacuum protection and continuous air management in municipal and industrial wastewater systems. Designed in accordance with AWWA C512, the Sewair‑Combo NXC helps utilities improve hydraulic efficiency while protecting critical pipeline infrastructure from damaging air-related conditions. Ideally suited for wastewater force mains with changing slopes and critical high points where air pockets commonly accumulate, the valve combines three essential functions into a single compact, full-bore solution. It automatically releases large volumes of air during pipeline filling, admits air during pipeline draining or sudden flow interruptions to prevent vacuum conditions, and continuously releases entrapped air while the system remains under pressure. The NXC features a powder fusion-bonded epoxy-coated ductile iron body, 316 stainless steel float and stainless steel internal components that provide superior corrosion resistance in aggressive sewage environments. 800-833-2040; www.flomatic.com
Copley Controls NanoPlus Micro Module servo drive
Copley Controls released its R47 and R48 NanoPlus Micro Module servo drives. These rugged versions of Copley’s commercial NPS drive are engineered to endure temperature extremes, high humidity, vibration and shock, expanding Copley’s compact Nano family with a hardened platform built for space-constrained applications. The R47 communicates over CANopen while the R48 communicates using CANopen application protocol over EtherCAT, giving system designers a choice of industrial network while sharing the same FPGA-based NanoPlus architecture, mechanical footprint and feature set. Both drives are available as a bare micro module for direct mounting to a user PC board or preassembled to a ruggedized EZ board. Models operate from 9 to 90 volts DC or 20 to 180 volt DCinput, with continuous current ratings up to 35 amps and peak current up to 70 amps, delivering continuous output power up to 3.15 kW and peak output power up to 6.3 kW. 781-828-8090; www.copleycontrols.com
