Stonehenge opens visitor centre With more than one million visitors a year – the majority from overseas – it seems somewhat surprising that the complete lack of visitor facilities at Stonehenge has only recently been redressed. The £27m centre now offers visitors a café and gift shop. But these facilities also go beyond the expected, with an exhibition that includes a forensic reconstruction of a the face of a 5,500-year- old Neolithic man. Other attractions include two rare 14th-century manuscripts and a laser, 360-degree ‘stand on the stones’ feature that allows visitors to experience what the summer and winter solstices are like. Grundfos Pumps worked in conjunction with Skanska and supplied the full pump requirements. This included members of the ultra energy-efficient Grundfos Magna and Alpha circulator-pump families, TPE in-line centrifugal volute pumps, that are suitable for a wide range of applications, and a Hydro MPC-E booster set, with the solution being supported with Grundfos pressurisation units.

Titan Products expands TPZ-NET Zigbee wireless range Titan Products continues to develop its TPZ-Net range of wireless sensors with the release of the TPZ-PIR occupancy sensor. Designed to detect movement in a space, the completely wireless, battery-powered sensor transmits a wireless signal to the TPZ-Net coordinator when movement is detected. The coordinator then communicates this state over a BACnet network that allows applications, such as lighting and HVAC equipment, to be controlled when occupants enter the room.
