Industrial Input and Output (I/O) Modules
In industrial applications, input and output (I/O) modules monitor and control both analog and discrete signals.
Analog signals are continuous signals that vary over time, such as temperature, pressure, or voltage, and analog input modules monitor these signals. These modules convert the analog signals into a digital form that the control system can process. A programmable logic controller (PLC) or a distributed control system (DCS) receives the converted signals for monitoring and control purposes.
Discrete signals, on the other hand, have only two states: on/off, open/closed, or high/low. Discrete input modules monitor these signals. These modules detect changes in the state of the discrete signals and communicate this information to the control system.
Analog output modules process analog signals. They receive digital calls from the control system and convert them into analog signals that control analog devices such as actuators or motors.
Discrete output modules control discrete signals. They receive digital calls from the control system to activate or deactivate discrete devices such as relays, solenoids, or valves.
In summary, I/O modules monitor and control analog and discrete signals in industrial applications. They allow for the conversion of signals from the physical world into a form that can be processed by the control system and vice versa, enabling real-time monitoring and control of industrial processes.
Acromag’s I/O and signal conditioning lines feature more than 100 transmitters, isolators, alarms, and computation modules for process control applications. If networked I/O is required, Acromag offers analog and discrete I/O modules for Ethernet, Modbus, and Profibus.
Globe Control Valves
Globe valves are typically used in process control applications to regulate the flow of steam or other gases. The valve consists of a cylindrical body with a plug or disc inside that can be rotated to control the flow of fluid through the valve. The disc is connected to a stem, which extends out of the top of the valve and is connected to a handwheel or other actuator.
When the handwheel is turned, the stem moves up or down, which in turn moves the disc in the valve body. As the disc moves towards the valve seat, it reduces the size of the opening through which the fluid can flow, which reduces the flow rate. Conversely, as the disc moves away from the valve seat, it increases the size of the opening and the flow rate increases.
The design of the globe valves allows for a large range of flow control and precise control of flow rate. It also has the capability of both modulating and on-off control depending on the requirement of the process.
There are several types of actuators that can be used to automate globe control valves, including:
- Pneumatic actuators: Pneumatic actuators use compressed air to move the valve stem and adjust the position of the valve disc. They are popular because they are relatively inexpensive, easy to install, and require minimal maintenance.
- Electric actuators: Electric actuators use an electric motor to drive a mechanical linkage that moves the valve stem and adjusts the position of the valve disc. They are typically more precise than pneumatic actuators, and can be controlled by a variety of electronic devices such as process controllers, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and distributed control systems (DCS).
- Hydraulic actuators: Hydraulic actuators use a fluid under pressure to move the valve stem and adjust the position of the valve disc. They are typically used in large valves or high-pressure applications where high force is required.
- Electro-Hydraulic actuators: This type of actuator is a combination of electric and hydraulic actuator. The electric motor operates a pump that generates the hydraulic pressure which is then used to move the valve stem and adjust the position of the valve disc.
- Smart actuators: Some modern actuators have the capability of communicating and self-diagnostics which is important for advanced control systems, These smart actuators are typically interfaced with digital control system which enables to monitor, control, and adjust the performance of the valve.
It's worth to note that choosing the actuator is depends on the requirement of the process, in term of flow rate, the process conditions, cost, and maintenance.
In summary, globe control valves are used to regulate the flow of steam or other gases in process control applications by adjusting the position of the plug or disc inside the valve body, which in turn controls the flow rate of the fluid through the valve.
Electric Heat Tracing for Pipes, Tanks, and Vessels
Electric heat tracing is a process used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes, tanks, and vessels in industrial and commercial facilities. It is often used to prevent the formation of frost or ice, to maintain the temperature of viscous materials, or to keep materials at a certain temperature for processing or storage.
There are several types of electric heat tracing systems, including self-regulating, power limiting, and constant wattage. Self-regulating systems adjust the amount of heat they produce based on the temperature of the pipe or vessel, while power limiting systems have a fixed heat output. Constant wattage systems have a fixed heat output that is not influenced by the temperature of the pipe or vessel.
Heat tracing is necessary in industrial and commercial facilities for a number of reasons. In cold climates, it is used to prevent pipes from freezing, which can lead to costly repairs and downtime. In processing and storage facilities, it is used to maintain the temperature of viscous materials, such as oil, to keep them flowing smoothly. It is also used to keep materials at a certain temperature for processing, such as in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
Heat tracing systems can be designed and installed by specialized contractors and are typically controlled by thermostats and other temperature-sensing devices. They can be powered by electricity, steam, or hot water, and are usually equipped with alarms and other safety features to prevent overheating or other hazards.

AW-Lake Introduces Its Clamp–on Ultrasonic Flow Meter
AW-Lake introduces a new series of Clamp-On Ultrasonic Flow Meters that fasten on the outside of vertical or horizontal pipes ranging in size from ½” through 48”. Housed in a water and dust-tight NEMA 4X polycarbonate enclosure, the Clamp-On Ultrasonic Flow Meters are compatible with a range of metal and plastic pipe materials and “difficult liquids” such as chemicals, viscous liquids, and abrasives that would damage standard flow meters. As a result, the non-intrusive, clamp-on ultrasonic sensors feature enhanced flow measurement with no pressure drop in a range of applications such as food or chemical processing plants, oil refineries, and more.
Operating from 100 – 240VAC, the Clamp-On Ultrasonic Flow Meters offer an isolated 4-20mA output that can transmit flow readings to remote displays, recorders, or controllers. The programmable relays are useable for flow control, pump protection or flow proportional pulse. A built-in keypad and simple menu system simplifies calibration and programming of pipe diameter, pipe material, liquid types and measurement units. Users can choose to display and totalize flow readings in preferred volumetric engineering units including gallons and liters.
A 128MB data logger is standard, capable of capturing up to 26 million data points. Optional MODBUS® RTU via RS-485 or HART® communication protocols are available for connection to automation systems that enables users to receive instantaneous flow rate, volume and total, run hours, and diagnostic information. In addition to being password-protected, AW-Lake’s new Ultrasonic Flow Meters retain all settings, values, and totals in cases of power interruptions.
Designed to operate at temperatures of -40°F to 300° F (-40°C to 150°C), the Clamp-On Ultrasonic Flow Meters offer a measurement accuracy of ±1.0% of reading from 1.5 to 40 ft/sec (0.5 to 12.0 m/sec) and ±0.015 ft/sec (±0.0046 m/sec) for velocity below 1.5 ft/sec (0.46 m/sec).
