FB6903 is necessary to protect products from backflow. The valve remains open due to the forward flow of fluid. If the flow is interrupted, the plug is pressed against the seat by a spring, causing it to close due to backflow. This valve is used in many sanitary applications and is a 3A certified product in accordance with the 58-01 standard. <Specifications> - Connection diameter: 1/2" to 4" - Connection type: Sanitary clamp - Body style: 3-piece - Body material: 316SS - Seat material: EPDM or Viton - Metal surface finish: Wetted parts 32Ra/0.8μm or further treatment - Pressure rating @ room temperature: 0.966MPa - Industrial standards and testing: 3A certification - Cracking pressure for 1/2" and 3/4": < 0.069MPa - Cracking pressure for 1" to 4": < 0.035MPa *For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

The FB5C back pressure regulator provides suitable hard seats and a variety of diaphragms and O-ring materials for aseptic back pressure applications. The FB5C operates by sensing the pressure or back pressure of the fluid supplied to the underside of the diaphragm from the side-mounted inlet. When the back pressure exceeds the set pressure, the load force on the diaphragm compresses the spring, causing the stem to function in an open state from the seat. As the flow increases and the back pressure is discharged, the forces of the spring and diaphragm are relieved, allowing the stem to return to its normally closed position. Changing the set pressure can be done simply by turning the adjustment screw to increase or decrease pressure within the range of the regulator spring settings. <Features> • No sliding parts in contact with the fluid – prevents microbial growth • 100% 316L stainless steel body and trim • Self-draining • No threaded parts in disassembly for cleaning • Spring housing compatible with CIP and SIP *For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

The FB6C pressure regulator controls the pressure of devices that require maintenance in sanitary conditions. The FB6C operates by sensing the pressure on the underside of the diaphragm downstream of the seat. When the downstream pressure approaches the set pressure, the force exerted by the pressure on the diaphragm begins to move the plug upward to close it, overcoming the force of the set spring. This reduces the downstream pressure and maintains the set pressure. When the pressure on the underside of the diaphragm starts to drop, the spring force pushes the plug downward to maintain the set pressure. <Features> • No sliding parts in contact with the fluid – prevents microbial growth • 100% 316L stainless steel body and trim • Self-draining • High precision (large diameter diaphragm with low droop) For performance table demonstrations of this product, please contact the distributor • Dome lock pin can be inserted into the spring housing to accommodate CIP and SIP • EPDM diaphragm is highly corrosion-resistant and has FDA and 3A certification *For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

We have published a technical column titled "How to Choose Batteries for Cold Weather and Outdoor Use" (A4, 4 pages, with illustrations). Have you ever felt that "the battery drained quickly" while outdoors in winter? It may not necessarily mean that the electricity inside is depleted; it could be that the battery has become difficult to remove due to the cold. This document organizes what happens inside a battery when it cools down and summarizes the items to check when selecting a battery based on temperature. [Contents] - What happens inside a battery when it cools down - Confirming "usable temperature" divided into discharge, charge, and storage - Things to check at low temperatures by type (quick reference table) - Considering the placement (devices placed outdoors / devices used in cold regions / locations that become unmanned at night) - Common mistakes and checklist items before selection, how to read specifications This document organizes general considerations by type. The usable temperature and the amount that can be extracted vary by product. If you let us know the temperature in the coldest situation, whether charging is available, and the required current output, we can assist you with potential product recommendations.

The Hino Smart Cabinet provided by Nichinichi Shimizu Machinery Co., Ltd. is a material management solution that allows for the management of factory tools and consumables like a vending machine. This system automates inventory management and ordering processes, preventing the risk of production stoppages due to stockouts and significantly reducing the burden of inventory tasks. The cabinet comes in various types, such as drawer-type and spiral-type, allowing for the proper storage of drills, measuring instruments, protective gear, and more according to their intended use. Furthermore, the history management function through user authentication accurately tracks "who took out what and when," contributing to loss prevention and cost reduction. Operating 24/7 with no maintenance required, it is introduced as an efficient tool to promote the digital transformation (DX) of factories.

● The production time for cast prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can cause changes in the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material with heat. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.

When it comes to environmental measures on site, many may think of waste reduction and energy conservation. However, there are also issues that can be addressed by reconsidering the materials used daily, such as summer glare, metallic sounds during vehicle operation, burdens from material transportation, and consideration for the surrounding landscape. Hyper CLT mats are wooden lightweight mats made from CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) that is laminated with the wood fibers crossing each other. They can be considered for use in temporary roads, access routes, material yards, heavy machinery work areas, and worker pathways. Wooden mats are characterized by their ability to reduce glare and radiant heat compared to steel plates, and they are also easier to manage in terms of metallic sounds during vehicle operation. The 5×10 version weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 version weighs about 460 kg, making them relatively lightweight, which can lead to more efficient relocation and transportation depending on site conditions. Additionally, by utilizing wood, they can be proposed as part of CO₂ fixation and environmental consideration efforts. Hyper CLT mats are registered technologies with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) under the NETIS system. The NETIS registration number is "TH-250021-A". They can also be incorporated into the use of new technologies and creative ideas in public works. Wooden mats, NETIS, civil engineering, CLT, wooden lightweight mats. Environmental measures on site can begin not only with large equipment but also by changing the materials at our feet.
