The continued development of SMC’s VBA Booster Regulator range has now seen the VBA1110 replaced with the VBA10A. The development has doubled the operating life of the range due to the use of a floating piston structure and the addition of a grease retaining ring. Operating noise has also been reduced by 13dB with the inclusion of a damper with the switching valve assembly. At the boosters supply port a wire mesh has been included to prevent failure due to foreign matter. Output pressure can be set as high as 20Bar with an increase ratio of 2:1. Maximum output flow rate is 230l/min.

SMC has extended its range of flow switches with the development of the PF3W compact flow switch for water. Continuing with SMC’s ethos of product development and innovation the PF3W is available with an integrated temperature sensor. As standard the switch can be operated with a mixture of water and ethylene glycol solution.  Outputs can be selected between switch and analogue for both flow and temperature. The 2 screen 3 colour display can be rotated through 270°C and though the main screen only displays instantaneous flow, the secondary screen can be selected to display the set value, accumulated value, peak or bottom, fluid temperature or the name of the line on which the switch is operating. The PF3W is 40% smaller than the current PF2W and also requires less piping space.
