In brief
Emissions monitor targets
compliance with evolving
environmental regulations
The Rosemount XE10 continuous emissions
monitoring system (CEMS) from Emerson
is designed to help industrial plants meet
increasingly stringent environmental regulations
and evolving sustainability demands. The new
system ensures accurate emissions monitoring
and reporting to help plant operators reduce
the risk of non-compliance shutdowns and
penalties.
The new system is a compact and
standardised solution certi ed to the European
standards EN 14181 and EN 15267, which
govern the quality assurance requirements for
automated measurement systems of stationary
source emissions.
“Real-time data reporting and quality
assurance are critical to regulatory compliance,”
said Iain Howieson, vice president and
general manager for Emerson’s gas analysis
business. “The new Rosemount XE10 CEMS
is equipped with fully automated calibration
to facilitate drift checks.
This ensures reliability and
helps operators prove to
regulators that the ongoing
operational performance of the system meets
the mandated quality assurance requirements,
such as the quality assurance level 3 test of
the EN 14181 standard, which saves operators
time and money and gives them the peace of
mind for continuous, reliable monitoring of
emissions.”
The XE10 CEMS also provides simpli ed
web-based access to built-in performance
analytics.
As a modular, integrated emissions
monitoring system, the Rosemount XE10 comes
with a gas sampling and conditioning system and
up to three gas analyser modules. Each module
can accommodate di erent measurement
ranges for di erent gas components, including
CO, NOx, SO2, CO2, and O2.

New fi ltration solutions
from Atlas Copco have been
launched on the market. If left
untreated, compressed air can be
contaminated with substances
such as dirt, water, and oil, which
can compromise compressed
air powered tools, production
processes and fi nal products.
Until now, servicing a fi lter
involved shutting down the entire
compressed air system or installing
three-valve bypasses around
every fi lter. Atlas Copco’s inPASS
re-directs the air through the fi lter
head during maintenance, allowing
for safe fi lter cartridge replacement
without interruption of the air
fl ow. This means there is no need
to install extra piping around the
fi lters or to halt production for
maintenance.

Inc. has enhanced its customer
support with the launch of GO
Remote Connected Service (GO).
Traditionally, service would have
been performed by technicians
via an onsite visit, and only after
the fault or total failure occurred.
With the GO, a robust, safe remote
service solution, now service
technicians can access real-time
monitoring, analysis, and status,
easily to track service history, and
download service reports.
The three-in-one Cospect
pressure-reducing valve from
TLV Euro Engineering has been
upgraded and is now being offered
with integrated pressure gauges as
standard across the range. General
manager Michael Povey says: “The
integrated gauges also mean no
additional pipework modifi cation
is required before or after the PRV,
which reduces installation time
and minimises process downtime.”
Originally launched over 35 years
ago, the Cospect is a combined
pilot-operated pressure reducing
valve (PRV), cyclone separator,
strainer and steam trap in a single
component that is said to overcome
the limitations of conventional
PRVs to provide dry steam at a
constant pressure and temperature.
