Pulsafeeder, a developer of fluid handling technology since 1942, has unveiled the new XAE Actuator, which brings a higher level of precision and remote control to the PulsaPro family of diaphragm pumps. PulsaPro metering pumps are used to dose specific volume of chemicals for numerous applications in refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants, and throughout the upstream oil and gas industry.

The API compliant XAE Actuator is an electromechanical servo controller that provides remote control of Source: PulsafeederSource: PulsafeederPulsaPro hydraulic diaphragm pumps to alter flow rates as required by the process. Alarm relays alert users to unintended changes in flow rates, including stop conditions. The fault-tolerant and self-recovering XAE is designed for reliability and minimal maintenance, with metal gearing and an explosion-proof enclosure. Simple calibration capabilities and an intuitive user interface facilitate ease-of-use. The XAE is purpose-built for PulsaPro pumps, and it is designed to meet the needs of international industrial markets.

The XAE Actuator is built on a customizable platform. The XAE’s digital microprocessor-based controls are built for seamless control panel integration, and numerous expansion port capabilities provide hooks to facilitate future enhancement as customer, and industry needs change. To see the new XAE Actuator, visit Pulsafeeder at the Offshore Technology Conference in Houston this week, in booth #9047, or visit http://www.pulsa.com/.
