Emerson’s New Three-Way Miniature Solenoid Valve Expands Flexibility in Medical Product Design  Compact, configurable three-way valve offers new options for high-flow, precision gas control in oxygen therapy and analytical devices  Emerson has expanded its ASCO™ Series 090 line of miniature solenoid valves, adding a new three-way Series 090 valve configuration to enable lighter, more space-efficient solutions for gas control in oxygen therapy, compression therapy and gas analyzer devices. Originally developed as a two-way valve for air and inert gases in portable medical devices, the Series 090 valve features a compact architecture, small (10.8 millimeter) footprint and 50 million-cycle life for...

X-rays capture ageing process in EV batteries Canadian researchers capture x-ray images of electric vehicle batteries as they degrade over time Victoria Martinez Apr 5, 2022 Toby Bond adjusts a battery sample on the BMIT beamline. CLS researcher Toby Bond uses x-rays to help engineer powerful electric vehicle batteries with longer lifetimes. His research, published in The Journal of the Electrochemical Society, shows how the charge/discharge cycles of batteries cause physical damage eventually leading to reduced energy storage. This new work points to a link between cracks that form in the battery material and depletion of vital liquids that carry...
