Patterson Davit Crane at WWETT booth 4540
The Patterson Davit Crane will be in action at February’s WWETT show, booth 4540. Designed for ease of use, durability and reliability, the cranes incorporate the highest quality components and finishes. The low-maintenance, easy-to-assemble design is portable so multiple locations can be serviced with a single piece of equipment, minimizing upfront investment. Additionally, the crane is designed with adequate reach to lift large loads within tight spaces, and a boom that can be adjusted to nearly 45 degrees to allow for clearance over obstructions such as handrails. It also comes standard with a hot-dipped galvanized finish, stainless steel hardware and steel sheaves, making it ideal for wet work environments. Available in 1/2- and 1-ton capacities, Patterson Davit Cranes are made in the USA and deliver on the company’s promise of keeping employees safe and positively impacting your business’s bottom line. 800-322-2018; www.pattersonmfg.com/davit-cranes

REHAU R-20 manifold connectors for EVERLOC+
REHAU added R-20 manifold connectors to the EVERLOC+ compression sleeve fitting line, extending its proprietary fitting technology further into radiant and hydronic applications. The new connectors are designed for use with RAUPEX crosslinked polyethylene pipes and PRO-BALANCE manifolds. Machined from solid brass with a nickel-plated swivel nut, the manifold outlets are available in 3/8-, 1/2-, 5/8- and 3/4-inch sizes. The design features reconfigured bushings for increased accessibility when using larger hydronic circuits. All EVERLOC+ R-20 fittings include an EVERLOC+ insert with a pre-installed O-ring and swivel nut in a one-piece assembly to support connection security. The R-20 fitting uses the swivel nut to connect to the manifold, then joins to the hydronic circuits using the EVERLOC+ connection technology. 800-247-9445; www.na.rehau.com
NIBCO PressACR SAE flare adapters line extension
NIBCO introduces its line extension for PressACR to include SAE flare adapters. Available in sizes ranging from 1/4- through 3/4-inch outside diameter, SAE flare adapters are used to transition from refrigeration equipment to the pipe.

Bell & Gossett Glycol Make-up Unit GF60
Bell & Gossett, a Xylem brand, has unveiled an updated version of its Glycol Make-up Unit GF60, a pressurized solution designed for closed hydronic heating or cooling systems. The unit is an automated 110-volt diaphragm pump with digital control. Each engineered package is designed to maintain critical minimum pressure levels to make up for losses that may occur due to leakage. It comes with everything required for easy installation. The versatile unit can handle output pressures from 7.5 to 70 psi and has a self-priming pump. And cut-in and cut-out pressure adjustments can be made easily using a digital display. The unit safely shuts off the pump if the storage tank level gets too low, and a pressure relief valve provides protection from excess pressure. 847-966-3700; www.bellgossett.com
