HAND HELD/PANEL MOUNT TERMINAL
features WYSIWYG graphics capability
The GraFX is a rugged, full-featured programmable terminal which features a 120x32-pixel graphics display. The WYSIWYG display allows the user to review data prior to processing. It displays standard ISO font sets and international character sets including Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters. For applications that require graphing or multiple languages to be displayed, the display has multiple overlaying "pages" that operate independently of each other allowing data on each individual page to be scrolled without affecting the data on other pages. The GraFX also features six front mounted LED indicators, which are controllable via software. It is applicable to OEM applications where a rugged hand held, panel mount or vehicle mounted programmable terminal is required and also to applications such as food preparation or diary where "wash-down" or submersion may occur regularly.

HOSE BEND RESTRICTORS
extend life of hydraulic and pressure water hoses
The HB series Hose Bend Restrictors are designed to prevent physical damage to and extend the life of hydraulic and pressure water hoses. These restrictors feature a unique tapering design that reduces bending stress
near the coupling junction. This feature allows for easy installation, as the upper lip attaches to the coupling, locking the restrictor in place. Moulded in flexible black vinyl, it is available in five sizes.

SIZE 14 CAPTIVE LINEAR ACTUATOR
for quiet and maintenance free operation
The Size 14 captive linear actuator features engineering thermoplastics in the rotor drive nut and a stainless steel Acme lead screw. This captive hybrid linear actuator is available in a wide variety of resolutions ranging from 0.000125" to 0.002" per step and delivers thrusts of up to 25 lbs. without compromising long life. The captive linear actuator is designed with an internal anti-rotation mechanism and is especially well suited for applications in which external anti-rotation methods would be difficult or impossible to employ. Applications requiring precise positioning and rapid motion are best suited for this motor. Typical applications include medical equipment, X-Y tables, automation of any kind, valve control and many more.

MEMBRANE AIR DRYERS
provide pure, dry compressed air
Balston SMART Dryer membrane air dryers provide pure, dry compressed air for applications requiring 35°F dewpoints and flow rates up to 200
SCFM. The drying system produces a guaranteed dewpoint of 35°F and removes all other compressed air contaminants down to 0.01 micron in size. The system utilizes sophisticated technology to monitor the air consumption and automatically adjusts the regenerative sweep flow as required. The Balston SMD3100NA and SMD3200NA series air dryers are shipped complete with
prefilters, auto drains and membrane modules all assembled in a cabinet with inlet and outlet ports mounted on top for easy installation.
