Saw and Track System Cuts through Wall Boiler Tubes
Created by ESCO Tool (escotool.com), the MILLHOG® boiler tube panel replacement system combines the APS-438 saw with the steel EscoTrackTM to provide fast cutting of water wall boiler tubes. It also eliminates the need for tube rework and grinding before beveling. The saw can horizontally cut 4-in. O.D. tubes straight with 1/16-in. accuracy and no heat-affected zone. It can also be fit with a vertical track attachment for fast and accurate boiler tube membrane removal. Equipped with a 3-hp pneumatic motor that runs on 90 lb/in.2 shop air at 80 ft3/min, the saw uses proprietary reinforced fiberglass abrasive blades for quick cutting and long life. The saw and track system easily attaches to a panel using weld tabs.

Leak Recognition System Provides Early Warning of Leaks
Produced by DENIOS (denios-us.com), the SpillGuard® leak recognition system uses intelligent sensor technology to instantly alert users when a leak is detected. When placed within the sump of a spill containment device or near the equipment to be monitored, it will alert users with an audible and visual alarm for a minimum of 24 hours if contact is made with a liquid. The easy-to-use system only needs to be switched on and placed into position. Additionally, it features an explosion-proof, highly resistant, electrically conductive housing. It also comes equipped with a battery that lasts up to five years and provides an audible signal when the battery needs to be replaced. The system is suited for use with containers and sumps of all sizes and types as well as along pipelines, next to heating or cooling systems, beside hydraulic equipment, or anywhere liquids are used or stored. It is ideal for use with temperatures from 32° (0°) to 104°F (40°C).
