Powercast Corp. has added two ultra-long-life, battery- powered sensors to its line. The WSN-1101 wireless sensor measures temperature, humidity, light and external tem- perature probes. Featuring a pre-installed, non-replace- able battery, the WSN-1101 can transmit data once per minute for more than 25 years without maintenance. The other device, WSN-1102 wireless CO2 sensor, can operate on batteries for three to 15 years depending on user-selected data transmission intervals from one to five minutes.

is ideal for traditional architectural styles. The additional depth produces greater shadow lines and amplifies the visual impact of overhead and verti- cal installations.
fiber cement or composite wood. It delivers energy efficiency, durability, low maintenance and lasting beauty to a siding product. The insulation provides a thermal break and keeps moisture out while let- ting buildings breathe naturally. It also reduces air infiltration and lowers heating and cooling bills.
COIL SYSTEM USES LESS REFRIGERANT Lennox has launched its Environ Coil
System that uses a series of channels, which allow the coil to operate with less refrigerant without sacrificing cooling performance. The all-aluminum coil is up to 59 percent lighter, lowering the roof- top unit’s weight. Over-core reinforce- ments on the top and bottom layers are
two-times thicker than internal tubes, resulting in improved coil protection. www.lennoxcommercial.com // (877) 726-0024

The product’s patented self-aligning features, including the leading edge tab, aligning ledge and product design, reduce installation time.
Cambridge Engineering has released its Cambridge ITH- Series Infrared Tube Heater line, which features a 99 percent plus efficient reflector design. The heaters can be
used to heat entire commercial or industrial buildings or as a source
of focused spot heating in small occupied areas. They save energy by driving more radiant energy to the floor and reducing air stratification losses at the roof. Products with rat-
ings from 40,000 to 220,000 Btu per hour and radiant emitter tube lengths from 10 to 70 feet are available. www.cambridge-eng.com // (800) 899-1989
