New DTS hazardous area floodlights
he DTS range of ATEX floodlights, have been designed specifically for use within hazardous areas typically encountered in countless industrial sectors.
T
They can be combined with other DTS lighting solutions including Exe,
Exd lighting
products, Exe and Exd enclosures and boxes, emergency and escape lighting to provide full lighting schemes across a complete site. The floodlights are available with a range of lamp choices including sodium and metal halide and are robust and manufactured from an aluminium alloy to make them corrosion resistant. There is a range variety of fixings to allow mounting on to many types of structure including poles. The DTS floodlights are manufactured to be used in Ex d classified applications and also have an Ex e integral junction box for easy installation.

Doepke Type F RCDs for use with single phase inverters
odern appliances and small machines incorporating single phase inverters produce mixed frequency leakage currents. Type “AC” and “A” RCDs designed for 50Hz supplies can be affected by high frequency currents generated in the sensing circuit, which can result in overheating and failure of the RCD to trip reliably under earth fault conditions. In addition the switching on and off of electronic equipment can cause nuisance tripping of standard RCDs. Type F RCCBs detailed in recently published standard BSEN62423 are for applications producing composite residual currents, as well as Type A currents, and have a higher resistance to surge currents (3kA / 10ms pulse) produced when switching on electronic equipment incorporating EMC filters.

Wieland’s Metalynx Proves Ideal for Major Refurbishment
efurbishment of 1A Wimpole Street in Westminster has included the use of Wieland Electric’s Metalynx structured wiring system to connect small power and lighting and to distribute the control cabling for the lighting management system. 1A Wimpole Street was built in 1912 and is a listed building owned by Royal London Asset Management. Belying its Edwardian baroque architecture the recent office refurbishment and extension by Trehearne Architects and
R AutoCAD Electrical
contractor Galliford Try has created over 6,000m2 of high quality, modern office space, occupied by a leading US multinational food company. The Wieland Metalynx system was selected by electrical contractors Raytell Electrical because the company had confidence that Wieland products would meet all of the requirements of the project. In particular, it was clear that the pluggable functionality of the system would save considerable time on site, compared to making manual terminations.

ensorex’s FCL500 series free chlorine sensors use advanced amperometric measurement technology to provide highly accurate monitoring of free chlorine in process applications. With three models covering the 0- 2ppm, 0-5ppm and 0-10ppm ranges, FCL500 sensors can be used in new installations or as a field replacement for existing sensors in drinking water disinfection and distribution applications, food and beverage production, cooling water, and other industrial water treatment systems. The new device has an upgraded temperature correction curve for improved performance. Its new membrane design features a mesh reinforcement clamp for increased stability and added durability. The 4-20mA isolated signal output is enhanced to eliminate ground loop errors, reduce noise, and block high voltage transient surges. For real-time free chlorine monitoring, the FCL500 series sensors interface with PLC, SCADA and other process control systems via the 4-20mA output.
