Safety Gate Offers Workers Protection from Falls
The Mezzanine Clear Height Safety Gate is engineered to protect workers from falls on elevated mezzanine loading areas. In addition, it does not have load height restrictions so it can accommodate tall pallets and allow more material through mezzanine entryways. Suitable for material handling, it uses counterbalanced gates between the employee and the edge. As one gate opens, the other gate closes to protect employees from falling. It also accommodates handrails. Made of carbon steel with a safety yellow powder coat finish, the gate installs easily with basic tools.

Pressure-sensitive level measurement in liquids
The new PT-500 submersible pressure transducer is an affordable and versatile level sensor that calculates level based upon the amount of pressure being exerted on the sensor from the liquid above it. It can be used in a wide range of liquids including water, wastewater and a variety of chemicals. It is Class 1, Div. 1 certified and intrinsically safe for use in hazardous environments. As it has a low current draw, the PT-500 can be used in remote locations and for battery powered applications. It's made of 316L stainless steel and installs simply by dropping it into the vessel.

Large opening conveyor belt
The Omni-Flex 3 x 1 belt features a 3-in. by 1-in. opening and is suitable for conveying pans, trays and larger products in spiral cooling, freezing and general conveyance applications.

No sprocket changes or transfer modifications are required when replacing an existing Omni-Flex. In hard to clean applications, the increased opening makes this belt easier to clean, reducing sanitation costs.
