Rockwell Automation
A new bezel option on Allen-Bradley® VersaView® industrial computers and monitors broadens their application use in food, pharmaceutical, petroleum and chemical industries. To meet strict industry standards and quality and safety requirements, food, pharmaceutical, petroleum and chemical industry manufacturers often specify stainless-steel-clad equipment for their production sites.New stainless-steel bezels allow the Allen-Bradley® VersaView® Industrial Computers and Monitors to meet the needs of virtually any industrial application-including visualization, control, information processing, and maintenance. The new stainless-steel models, available in 15-inch and 17-inch touch and no-touch versions, carry the NEMA Type 12/13/4/4X and IP65 ratings.
Rockwell Automation also minimized the collection ridges around the bezel to a one-millimeter depth, reducing the chance of contaminants gathering around the monitor, which makes cleaning easier. While VersaView Industrial Computers and Monitors make it possible for operators to monitor and operate single machines or entire systems, users can also apply their VersaView computers for PC-based control and machine maintenance and can collect and quickly share information about the manufacturing process and equipment.

Vilter
The TecoFrost compressor from Vilter Manufacturing features three energy saving designs. First, the natural gas engine in the compressor helps refrigeration plants reduce electric demand. Demand and usage loads peak in the daytime and summer when electricity is expensive and natural gas is more abundant.In addition to the reduced energy costs, TecoFrost features a variable speed operation, which results in longer intervals between required maintenance on both engine and compressor. Finally, additional energy saving can be realized as the compressor utilizes the heat generated by the engine jacket and the exhaust gas. The recovered heat is used for space heating, domestic hot water, boiler feed water preheating or process applications.
