New PIR sensor from Dimplex Dimplex has introduced a new automatic passive infrared (PIR) sensor to optimise the performance of its energy efficient radiant heating solutions. Designed to work alongside new or pre-installed
radiant heaters from the Dimplex range, the discreet DX4131 sensor only activates the heater when it is needed, controlling energy consumption and delivering financial reductions on the daily running cost of the overall heating system. With the capacity
to control heating loads of up to 3kW, from a wall- or ceiling-mounted position, the unit uses adjustable
passive infrared sensing technology to detect motion from up to 12 metres away within a radius of 200 degrees.
Maximising the unit’s performance using the manual
controls further enhances the functionality of the heating system, with a choice of short or long detection ranges, time delay options ranging from five seconds to 18 minutes, and a setting to pre-determine how long the heater stays on each time motion is detected.

Hochiki showcases latest life safety technology at Health & Safety Event Hochiki Europe will demonstrate the features and benefits of its cutting-edge fire detection and emergency lighting solutions at this year’s Health & Safety Event, taking place at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) Birmingham between 11 -13 March 2014. Visitors can see a working example of the HFP
system with Hochiki’s Enhanced Systems Protocol (ESP) devices. Hochiki’s Conventional (CDX) devices are also compatible with HFP systems, which means even the most specialist environments can be catered for. Also on
display will be the FIREscape Emergency Lighting range, which features self-contained
LED luminaires and signage that are powered via low-voltage cabling. The light emitting diode (LED) technology that the system is based around is cost- effective and environmentally friendly – it uses less than five per cent energy consumption compared with conventional lighting. For further information on Hochiki’s products,

Legrand’s hotel system puts users in control Building automation specialist Legrand has launched a new guest room management system that provides ease of use, customisation and control for guests, reception staff or the hotel head office. Fully compatible with Fidelio, Suite and Opera hotel
reservation systems, the new guest room management system optimises comfort, energy efficiency and aesthetics, providing intuitive, ease of use for guests and control of individual rooms, floors or the whole building for the hotel. Pre-programmed with an entry scenario (access
control, temperature set and courtesy light) and exit scenario (temperature set, lights off), the room settings can be altered to suit the guest’s requirements when they make their reservation, when they check in or when they arrive at their room. Guests can select from a number of pre-set scenarios to suit their requirements, including comfort (do not disturb, temperature set, dimmer), sleeping (do not disturb, lights off) and eco scenarios (open window, eco temperature), creating a bespoke environment incorporating all room functions to meet their preferences.

Lower pricing for Fluke thermometers After the successful 2013 launch of its innovative Fluke VT02 and VT04 visual infrared (IR) thermometers, Fluke is making this product range affordable to a wider group of end users and applications. It is offering significant price reductions on the recommended sales price of both units, with the VT02 at a manufacturer’s recommended price of just £395. Impressed by their compactness, the analytical and reporting software, and features such as high and low temperature markers and the blended thermal and digital imagery, customers have purchased the tools for when a single-spot temperature reading is not enough and a high- resolution thermal image is more than is needed. The Fluke tool combines the visual insight of a thermal imager, the visual images of a digital camera, and the point-and-shoot convenience of an IR thermometer, all with focus-free simplicity. Electrical, HVAC and preventive maintenance kits containing the VT04 are also subject to significant price reductions.

Better cable management by Crabtree Crabtree has introduced two new cable management solutions to its extensive range of electrical products. A compact range of PVC trunking and accessories
called COMPAK, together with a high cabling capacity range called MAXPAK that fully meet the requirements for Cat 5E, 6, 6A and 7 cables, is now available after being designed, developed and manufactured in the UK and Europe. The new Crabtree trunking has a clean, unobtrusive style that helps it blend into its surroundings and, with an open-access design, provides full cable support during cabling for both top and bottom compartments. Both variants come with truly flexible internal and
external corners to provide for the everyday reality that walls are not always 90º true. In addition, the corners offer ribbed inside supports ensuring cables are smoothly guided to prevent kinking and twisting, thus maximising data transmission performance and, importantly, presenting no capacity reduction.
