edford Hospital NHS Trust is a 403 bed, high performing district general hospital committed to providing a caring and safe environment for its patients and staff. The trust provides a range of services to over 270,000 people predominantly in the north and mid Bedfordshire areas. Following initial feasibility studies and financial appraisal, Eta Energy Systems Ltd prepared a full technical design with specification for the replacement of the existing CHP plant. The proposal incorporated 3No Ethos 130kW stainless steel condensing boilers. Operating in conjunction with a CHP unit the boilers primarily serve the hospital’s HWS demand but are configured to provide heat into the main system when hot water requirements are at a minimum. The condensing boilers have a 30 > 1 modulation across a total of 390kW delivering unsurpassed load matching to the LTHW and HWS circuits.

NEW Fused Switched Spur with Countdown Timer G
reenBrook’s new fused connection unit with a boost timer is ideal for use with all heating, hot water and lighting systems,
including LED. With a flexible boost time ranging from 15 minutes to 23 hours; this products is suitable for typical domestic use (immersion heaters, panel heaters, electric towel rails) however offering an additional advantage for Landlords and Facilities Managers looking to control their electricity consumption. There is also an option to password protect the chosen timings so they cannot be overridden. This product is designed to fit into a 25mm, 35mm or 47mm back
box (an additional pattress is suppled for mounting on a 25mm). Sales Director Peter Ratcliffe says “The T206-C is the most flexible countdown timer spur in the market offering a wider operating time scale giving our customers greater choice of application with just one product”

Ruskin warms up Cardiff landmark O
ne of the most prestigious buildings in Wales has upgraded its natural ventilation system in a bid to improve occupant comfort.
Built at the turn of the century, this
government building in the picturesque Cardiff Bay area incorporated a number of sustainable features,
including natural ventilation.
This involved outside air being transported via an under croft plenum into the occupied spaces via trenches and stainless steel floor grilles.
The trenches were fitted with heat emitters and the air flow entered through attenuators and two-stage motorised dampers.
Air change rates were managed by CO2 and
temperature sensors to meet good air quality standards, but in practice occupants often complained about being too cold. This was because most of the fresh air was able to bypass the heater in the trench and enter the space at little more than outside ambient temperatures.
34 SUMMER 2016 | ENERGY MANAGEMENT
Following detailed study by the engineering consultants Howard Doolan Associates, it was agreed that fixed heating elements mounted directly to the motorised dampers should be used instead. This would ensure full contact between the incoming air and the heating medium and eliminate the cold blocks of air being introduced into the occupied space.
Therefore, the 21 existing motorised dampers were replaced by Vengen insulated units, manufactured by Ruskin Air Management.
The Vengen natural ventilation modules are 930 mm high, comprising a 320mm high winter section with heating coil arrangement and a 630mm high summer section with no heating provision.
These double skinned,
