Prismashield™ Elite
D
esigned to meet the demanding environments of a metro or rail infrastructure application,
Prismashield™ Elite is a robust, stylish and multi functional luminaire. Prismashield™ Elite can withstand severe physical attack, exposure to weather and vibration. The luminaire is available with a frosted glass
lens for underground tunnels or a polycarbonate lens with internal prisms. Both optics produce a precise symmetric or asymmetric light distribution for even, glare-free illumination helping people feel safe and secure in arduous environments. Prismashield™ Elite is a versatile lighting
solution that can be surface mounted individually or in continuous runs utilising the infill panels system. An optional integrated surface cable management system can be attached to conceal power, emergency and communications in a complete solution.

and pupils by fitting GlassGuard BlackBand® coated fluorescent lamps and new IP65 fixtures. GlassGuard®’s IP65 T5 fixtures have been installed in the main hall, staff room and foundation class room, delivering a vital energy saving of 37% in these areas. From this installation of just 22 GlassGuard® IP65 T5 fixtures the school will save 1 Kilowatt of energy per hour, which equates to a cash saving £182.00 per year. This is a significant sum for a small school and paves the way for major energy saving opportunities for larger installations. For example a typical high school with 500 T8 fluorescent fixtures could save up to £4,000 per year by switching to GlassGuard® IP65 T5 fixtures.

hompson Primary School in Norfolk has taken positive steps to save money and improve safety for both staff
horn Lighting announces the UK launch of Hi-Rack, a fluorescent energy efficient lighting range for high
ceiling applications offering a viable alternative for high bay areas where less efficient discharge fittings have been the preferred choice until now. Hi-Rack is particularly suited to storage, retail and industrial environments and offers a logical and cost-effective way to reduce energy costs and improve lighting quality. For open spaces or racking aisles not in continual use, Hi-Rack’s dimming/sensor capabilities can reduce lighting to as little as 10 per cent, which will
reduce both energy consumption and energy bills. Hi-Rack high frequency sensor (HFS) is the top-of- the-range version and ensures you only use light when needed. The sensor can be used up to 16 metre mounting heights and is quick and simple to install as it is factory set or can be programmed to specific needs using a handheld programmer from the floor.

FAAC to reveal new energy saving door automation at IFSEC
F
AAC UK will be unveiling its A140 AIR door automation system at this year’s IFSEC event. With the ability to
detect direction of movement and minimise air loss, the revolutionary A140 AIR offers energy savings of up to 40% compared with standard automatic door systems. This is achieved through an inbuilt monodirectional
sensor which can identify the walking direction of the pedestrian, so that the doors only fully open if a person is walking towards them. Unlike the standard automatic doors, which often stay open much longer than necessary,
the A140 uses information from the sensor to optimise opening/closing times to reduce air loss and energy consumed by internal air-conditioning and heating systems. In many cases the A140 can be retro-fitted to the existing door for an immediate cost-saving solution.

facilities personnel at this year’s Facilities Show at the NEC in Birmingham. Raychem’s focus at the show will be to expose Facilities Managers, Building Engineers, and building “Responsible persons” to the array of products and services available for energy efficient hot water temperature maintenance in distributed systems but also to demonstrate the products and services available for winter safety of buildings and their occupants. Adverse winter weather, over the past few years, has exposed many areas of vulnerability for buildings and their occupants. With Raychem systems available for new build as well as facilities refurbishment, practical solutions can be implemented with reliable, optimum energy efficient performance.

for energy storage systems including mechanical, electrical, chemical and thermal. The IP67-rated ePower 400A connectors are rated 1,000-volts DC and feature integrated EMI shielding. These versatile connectors are perfect
e for
applications that require high voltage and high amperage. The competitively priced connectors are ideal for the growing energy storage market, where space is at a premium and budgets are often limited as they can replace up to three conventional connectors, saving on space and cost. The lightweight, compact connectors feature
Amphenol’s patented RADSOK technology that attains higher current ratings and lower contact resistance in comparison to other contact methods on the market.
