measures innovation by the volume, success, international market registrations and influence of patents.
The award of one of the Top 100 Global Innovators has
confirmed Daikin Industries’ innovative ideas and technologies on an international scale. David Brown, the executive vice president of Clarivate Analytics in the 2016 report points out the following about the Global Innovators: “Their continued commitment to innovation is certain to ensure their future success.” Martin Krutz at Daikin UK said: “An exciting and innovative year, 2016 included the launch of the first UK commercial air conditioning range using R32 – Bluevolution – providing an environmentally-friendly air conditioning system ahead of upcoming F-Gas legislation. In addition, our continued commitment to renewable heating was showcased in the launch of the Daikin Altherma LT Integrated indoor unit. “We’re proud as the UK operation of Daikin Industries that our technology innovation has been recognised by Clarivate Analytics and look forward to the continued evolution of Daikin products in 2017.”
or the 4th time Daikin Industries Ltd has been named one of the Top 100 Global Innovators for 2016 by Clarivate Analytics. The title is awarded to
SENSOR DETECTS CONTAMINANTS
oneywell has announced a new particle sensor designed to help building owners and consumers monitor the air for potentially harmful particulate contaminants caused by dust, soot and smoke. Honeywell’s HPM series particle sensor is designed to work in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and consumer products such air purifiers to measure air quality in homes, buildings and public spaces. The sensor has already been incorporated in Honeywell’s new PM2.5 Indoor Air Quality Detector, a portable air monitor for consumers in China. “Particle sensors play a critical role in measuring and managing the quality of the air we breathe to help protect our health,” said Graham Robinson, president of Honeywell’s Sensing and Internet of Things business, a specialist in sensor technology for industries ranging from health care to aerospace. “Honeywell leveraged decades of expertise in sensing technology and connected solutions to develop this state- of-the-art, affordable sensing solution to help prevent building occupants from developing health issues that could be caused by poor air quality.”
H The sensor uses laser technology to
accurately and cost-effectively monitor for fine inhalable particles that are 2.5 micrometers in diameter or smaller. For reference, the average human hair is nearly 30 times larger at 70 micrometers in diameter. According to the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, fine particles, which are often caused by burning fossil fuels, can settle deep into lungs or even enter the bloodstream and pose health risks. The sensor outputs an electrical signal
that can be fed into HVAC control systems in buildings and homes or into other air monitoring devices. This information can alert building operators that air purification systems should be activated or if outdoor air could be used to improve indoor air quality, or when an air filter needs to be changed or early maintenance should be performed on indoor air delivery systems. The sensor uses a light-scattering method to detect and count particles in the concentration range of 0 micrograms-per- cubic-metre-of-air (µg/m3) to 1,000 µg/m3 in a given environment. It then analyses the particulate size and concentration in real time to enable systems to provide alerts.
