Company: Bosch Rexroth
Product: SVA R2
The SVA R2 is the world’s most compact Subsea Electric Actuator with field-proven safety system. Electrification is the key for the Oil & Gas companied to reduce their carbon footprint and increase productivity. However, to electrify their conventional hydraulic actuators, the offshore industry was seeing itself forced to give up the field-proven safety system by springs as this required much higher space/weight as an equipment could afford.
By developing a Subsea Electric Actuator which is so compact as the applied hydraulic cylinders but with a SIL 3 control system based on field-proven springs, we are enabling the electrification of the process industry without compromising safety. This solution is not only suitable for Oil & Gas production, but also for new applications such as Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS) or Green Hydrogen production. The SVA R2 saves carbon, fluid and energy protecting not people but also the environment for a sustainable future of the process automation.

Company: Hawke International
Product: Rapid Connection Gland (RCG)
The Hawke Rapid Connection Gland (RCG) is our latest ground-breaking innovation - the ultimate hybrid of Cable Gland and Connector.
The RCG range offers the opportunity to created sealed for life equipment across many different product types in hazardous areas. Rapid termination and disconnection reduce ownership expenses by decreasing the time it takes to carry essential inspection, maintenance, and repair & overhaul.
A plug and play product, the RCG allows for much faster connection and disconnect than hard wiring. The RCG allows for the replacement of equipment in a matter of minutes onsite. Work to terminate equipment can be carried out in advance, offsite where operating expenses are lower. Simplifying processes dramatically reduces downtime and saves money.
