John A. Farris

John A. Farris, until recently president of Pall Industrial Hy- draulics Corporation, has been ap- pointed corporate director of

Aerospace and Fluid Power De- velopment and Planning for the

Pall Corporation. Mr. Farris will be responsible for medium and long-range planning, and for iden- tifying marketing opportunities that are not presently being ex- ploited. In his new position, Mr.

Farris will report to Abraham

Krasnoff, president of Pall Cor- poration.

Mark Kachur, formerly vice president, Sales, of Pall Trinity

Micro Corporation, succeeds Mr.

Farris as president of Pall Indus- trial Hydraulics Corporation.

Mr. Farris joined Pall Corpora- tion in 1956. Initially, he was as- sociated with Aircraft Porous

Media, Incorporated, Pall's sub- sidiary in the aerospace field, where he served as vice president,

Sales. Since 1968, he has been in charge of industrial hydraulic filters.

Both companies have success- fully promoted the concept of using silt-control filters to elim- inate abrasive particles and re- duce wear of components, and thereby extend the life and re- liability of hydraulic and lubri- cation systems.

Aircraft Porous Media, Incor- porated, with manufacturing fa- cilities in Pinellas Park, Fla., and

Pall Industrial Hydraulics Corpo- ration, with manufacturing fa- cilities in Ft. Myers, Fla., and

Liquillo, Puerto Rico, are both subsidiaries of Pall Corporation, an international leader in the de- sign and manufacture of filters and fluid clarification devices for fluid processing, aerospace, fluid power, and biomedical applica- tions.

On Oil Containment Boom

Literature is now available de- scribing the SEA FENCE Oil

Containment Boom, originally de- signed by Seaward International,

Inc., for the U.S. Navy. The unique SEA FENCE boom com- bines the ease of handling re- quired for quick response with the toughness and service life of a permanent type boom, according to its manufacturer.

The durability of the SEA

FENCE is due to the tough poly- ester fabric base, Kevlar bottom tension reinforcement and the rugged urethane elastomer coat- ing which seals in the components and gives the SEA FENCE out- standing resistance to oil, wa- ter, sunlight and abrasion. The smooth, seamless exterior of the

SEA FENCE makes the boom

ITT Mackay Marine and North

American Philips Corporation offer teleprinting-over-radio for both new vessels and retro- fit applications.

Teleprinting over radio (TOR) is a proven system of marine communi- cations that links your ships at sea with any Telex terminal, anywhere in the world.

It's economical. A fraction of the equipment cost of satellite com- munications systems. It's accurate.

Modern Philips' error correcting features virtually eliminate the possi- bility of transmission errors. And it's private. Messages directed to your ships are received and printed only by the vessels addressed.

Now, ITT Mackay Marine gives you two ways to install teleprinting- over-radio on your vessels. You can snag-free and allows easy clean- ing and maintenance.

Since the lightweight Kevlar tension member is constructed as part of the boom and is encased in the elastomer coating, there is no pocket where oil can be trapped or external cables that can be snagged.

Rapid deployment of up to 1,000 feet of SEA FENCE boom is made possible using a single boom stor- age reel available from Seaward.

And, the integrally cast handles on the boom provide a sure grip for deployment.

The SEA FENCE Oil Contain- ment Boom is offered in two sizes: the Outer Harbor Boom is 28 inches in overall height and weighs 4.0 lb ft; Inner Harbor

Boom is 171 -j inches high and weighs 2.6 lb ft.
