Williams
Williams’ latest roll in blast chiller, the WTBC70, is designed to accept 20 rack GN1/1 combi oven trolleys. Now Williams has upgraded the unit to offer even more flexibility, since it can accept no less than three different types of trolley – including the model for the new Rational iCombi Pro. The WTBC70 blast chiller is the largest roll-in cabinet in the Williams range. As well as accepting the new Rational trolley (60.21.331.201), it can also accommodate Rational’s previous 201 version or the Lainox combi oven trolley. The new WTBC70 also features an upgraded latch handle that provides a robust, 100% tight seal, and adds to the security of the cabinet. The WTBC70 has the capacity to chill more food in a single batch
than many of its rivals, with a capacity of up to 70kg. The unit chills foods down to the designated holding temperature in 90 minutes or less, ensuring quality is preserved. Food can also enter the cabinet at 90°C, an added benefit when compared to some industry products that can only accept food at 70°C.

Resource Data Management (RDM) is delighted to introduce a new range of Bluetooth wireless networking modules for the building controls industry. Using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology, the modules transmit data between heating,
Hubbard
Hubbard Systems has launched XSafe, a new system that sanitises the insides of icemakers, destroying 99% of bacteria and viruses, including coronaviruses. The Covid-19 pandemic has raised the importance of keeping ice production equipment hygienically clean in order to fi ght the spread of infections. XSafe is a totally natural system which is fully integrated inside the ice machine. XSafe uses the natural disinfectant power of UV light to help keep the interior of ice machines in peak hygienic condition. The UV converts oxygen into ozone, then the ozone is converted into activated oxygen. This activated oxygen is blown throughout the interior of the ice machine, attacking a wide spectrum of contaminants, including germs and bacteria. It does this by destroying the bonds in the molecules of the contaminating material, making them harmless. UV systems have been used in icemakers in the past, typically by
putting a lightbulb in the storage bin – but that leaves anything covered by the ice untreated. The XSafe innovation is its use of an integrated unit that processes air constantly, pumping activated oxygen evenly throughout the interior. This means that XSafe sanitises the whole interior of the icemaker, as opposed to just the exposed surfaces – it’s even active under and throughout any accumulation of ice in the bin.

ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVACR), lighting and other building control equipment. The new Bluetooth range is ideally suited for space-restricted areas or if building structure hinders the installation of cable solutions.
The new Bluetooth range includes a two-input/output module, four input module, R232 interface for RDM controllers and a battery- operated temperature probe. All these devices connect to a central access point, that then links to RDM’s leading control system front- end DMTouch. Access point options include PoE, 5v and either DIN or ceiling mount options.
The solution features Mesh topology, a signifi cant benefi t
compared to systems communicating point to point. In a Mesh system signals can hop between available devices, bypassing obstacles and creating a more robust and reliable wireless infrastructure. The RDM solution allows for continuous data transmission between powered modules, as often as every 15 seconds. All of the new RDM Bluetooth modules are compatible with the DMTouch, RDM’s control system front-end when utilising the new Bluetooth access points. Up to four access points can be connected to one DMTouch, allowing for a wide range of coverage across large buildings and multiple fl oors. One DMTouch can support a combined total of 64 Bluetooth devices, increasing the scope and fl exibility of RDM’s extensive HVACR control network capabilities. For fl exible installation options, two variants are available. One is designed for DIN rail mount while the other is intended for surface (wall or ceiling) mount.
