Parker Hannifin has launched the new P3L Lite air preparation system. The new P3L series has been developed to provide a rugged, high quality, ultra lightweight air preparation system, which combines excellent performance and value for money. Suitable for a vast range of general purpose applications within pneumatic systems the P3L Lite series is available as filter, regulator stand alone units or filter/regulator combinations.

A high integrity ball valve for process applications that combines a forged body with a novel bolted construction to ensure installation security has been launched by the instrumentation products division of Parker Hannifin. The new valve is available in a wide range of sizes and with a variety of connection schemes to help simplify installation.

A new monoflange-style ball valve for interfacing instruments to process piping has been launched by the instrumentation products division of Parker Hannifin - the global leader in motion and control technologies. The bidirectional valve range - designated Monoball - is available in four sizes with bores of 10, 15, 20 or 25 mm and offers a full cold working pressure rating of 6,000 PSI (414 bar) with 100% bubble-tight shut-off.

Parker Hannifin’s Filtration & Separation Group, the leader in gas generation for LC/MS and GC applications, has entered into a worldwide supply agreement with the Waters Corporation. Under the agreement, Waters will resell Parker Balston nitrogen generators as part of their LC/MS package

Parker Hannifin has launched a new range of value engineered pneumatic ISO compact cylinders for use in a wide variety of industrial applications. The P1P series is a complete range of ISO21287 pneumatic compact cylinders developed to meet the highest requirements in terms of quality and performance at a cost effective price. Optimised to deliver first class function and service life, the P1P series represents everything customers’ have come to expect from the global leader in motion and fluid control technologies.

Parker Hannifin has launched an advanced new range of Viking Lite directional pneumatic control valves that combine high flow rates and fast response in compact, lightweight and robust bodies. The new Viking Lite also features a specially developed valve spool wear compensating system. This minimises friction, to reduce both breakaway forces and actuation pressures, and enables operating life to be dramatically increased by up to 250%, depending on application.

The Filtration Division of Parker Hannifin has released the industry’s first condition monitoring app as a free download from the iTunes appstore. Parker Hannifin Hydraulic Filter Division Europe’s ConMon app features two unique programs that will enable users to measure the degree of filtration required for their systems, and the frequency at which fluids should be tested, via their iPhone, iPad or iTouch. The app offers a new, swift and convenient way to ensure that hydraulic oil and fuel systems are safe from contamination, reducing the costly delays caused by equipment failure and downtime.

Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, will be exhibiting an extensive range of its advanced engineering solutions for the gas and oil industry sectors at this year’s Offshore Europe Exhibition

Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, has signed a cooperation agreement with Farid; a major manufacturer of waste collection and recycling vehicles and equipment.

Parker Hannifin Corporation, the global leader in motion and control technologies, today announced that it has acquired SSD Korea Co, Ltd. of Seoul, Korea.

Innovative solutions that eliminate most of the common sources of problems on fluid instrumentation and hydraulic control systems will be highlighted at Offshore Europe 2011 by the instrumentation products division of Parker Hannifin - the global leader in motion and control technologies. Groundbreaking development work has led to the company's small-bore fitting, valve and manifold products incorporating many novel features that greatly reduce the risk of system failure, leaks and process downtime.

Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, has expanded its already comprehensive range of lightweight aluminium Transair pipe systems with the introduction of a new high volume version to meet the demands of particularly large industrial sites and larger scale vacuum applications. Ideal for use as the primary network for compressed air supply in a diverse range of sectors, from the automotive and aeronautics industries, through food processing to printing works, the new 6” (168mm) diameter pipe system has been designed to complement the existing range of 16.5mm to 100mm pipe diameter sizes.

A new range of hydraulic piston pumps has been launched to help reduce the size of fan drive systems for both on- and off-highway vehicles. Developed by Parker Hannifin, and based on the company’s proven P1 piston pump, the new system features a dedicated proportional pressure control valve, built directly into the pump assembly. This effectively minimises system size and weight, without affecting overall performance or functionality, and enables design engineers to make best use of the space available on each vehicle; additionally, as part of the hydraulic fan drive system, the new system contributes to improved fuel efficiency and emission reduction.

Beaumanor Engineering Limited has partnered with Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, to open a dedicated ParkerStore covering the Leicester and local area. The new enhanced product range from the Leicester-based fluid power products and services provider will benefit all its existing and new customers in all areas of trade and industry.

Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, has enhanced its range of icount online particle and moisture detectors with the introduction of an innovative new self contained and portable device for measuring the quality and cleanliness of hydraulic oils and hydrocarbon fuels. Called the icountOS (Oil Sampler), this new competitively priced system incorporates a laser detection particle counter, battery and pump into a single integrated unit for the real time condition monitoring of fluids, thereby helping maintenance engineers to maximise productivity and extend system life.

Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion control technologies, has broadened its range of frameless torque motors with the introduction of its new TK130 models. Building on the features of the existing TK range, the new, smaller models offer simplified mechanical design, precise motion and high dynamic performance, all in an extremely robust package.
