The Doran OTR tire pressure sensor also features a high- impact nylon housing with a spin-welded cap and proprietary potting material, which encapsulates and protects the internal com- ponents from vibration, impact and extreme temperature changes. The sensor has the capability to be scanned with Doran's SmartLink hand tool to provide digital pres- sure and temperature data during walk- around tire inspections. www.doranmfg.com Easy-to-Install Wear Panels Wear Con SHC800 cast wear panels are cast from a proprietary blended alloy with a hardness of 55 to 58 HRc. They feature abrasion, erosion and corrosion resistance; and are easy to install and replace. The wear panels can easily be bolted or welded into place. The most common method of installation is bolting with Wear Con plow bolts through the counter sunk holes. Standard plow bolts come with all SHC800 wear panels. They can also be plug welded with 309 310 stainless steel rod. Wear Con SHC800 wear panels provide maximum abrasion resistance along with the ability to withstand temperatures up to 900°F. They are available in an array of sizes and thicknesses to fit user needs. www.wearcon.com Cone Crusher Handles Large Capacity Demands KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens intro- duced the Kodiak Plus K500+, a 500-hp, remotely adjustable cone crusher that is the latest addition to the Kodiak Plus Cone Crusher family, which previously comprised three models: the K200+, K300+ and K400+. The K500+ fills a demand for larg- er secondary and tertiary cone crushers often used in mining applications. Refinements implemented into the Kodiak Plus product line include a new hybrid cast/fabricated base frame design, automated control sys- tem, liner retention system, thread locking ring, anti-spin cone brake, and other fea- tures such as replaceable brass thread inserts, internal counterweights, and heavy- duty tramp iron system consisting of pres- sure relief valves in lieu of accumulators. www.kpijci.com Air Filters for Off-road Applications Donaldson Co. Inc. released more than 50 Donaldson Endurance air filter sizes that are now available for off-road applications. Manufactured using Donaldson's Ultra-Web nanofiber technology, these air filters help reduce maintenance costs and increase equipment uptime in off-road applications. Donaldson Endurance air filters protect engines and help them last longer by pro- viding better initial and overall efficiency EMJ_pg74-77_EMJ_pg74-77 2/28/14 9:23 AM Page 76
