GrayWolf Sensing Solutions (USA) have announced the release of a fully updated version of the core air quality sensor application software: WolfSense AS/PPC/LAP.
This software operates on multiple platforms, including Windows 8 PCs (once officially released). Also connect to WIN XP/7 tablets, netbooks, laptops, to Windows Mobile Pocket PCs and to GrayWolf’s AdvancedSense and WolfPack instruments.
The new/expanded features include enhanced alarms offering high/low warnings plus high/low alarms for each individual parameter and easily set visual and/or audible warnings. Multiple languages (English/French/German/Spanish/Portuguese) have been added with more to come soon. A selection of background
screens/wallpaper are now available. Choose a custom look on the tactile, color screen or even import/display your own logo.
Newly added On-board help videos such as user calibration, setting up tripod kits and pollutant pathway measurements can be viewed on the “instrument”, while on-site. Updated On-board sensor tips including Differential Pressure, Formaldehyde and more are NEW and Carbon
Dioxide, TVOCs, Particulate, O3, NH3, H2S, CO and most others are updated. Audio note access is further simplified. Employ this popular, efficient documentation feature easier than ever, with a single tap from the main screen.
New interactive data forms automatically import measurement data, including a “NIOSH Dampness and Mold Assessment Form,” developed for school testing based on NIOSH protocol. GrayWolf can work with you on your own custom form(s).
Lastly, a barometric pressure compensation has been added (automated for AdvancedSense and WolfPack platforms only) and additional data export options which include downloading data to USB keys or other storage media. Our improved user interface includes more features without more complexity because it is designed right. GrayWolf’s prime software development directive is to make the user interface “intuitive, easy, functional, intuitive”!

Narda Safety Test Solutions (Germany) offers a new way of installing an economically priced electromagnetic field monitoring and alarm system in the form of the Narda Broadband Radiation Meter NBM-580. The device collects the measurement results from up to eight distributed measuring stations and records them continuously, triggering alarms if limit values are exceeded.
An economical way to monitor limit values e.g. on transmitting equipment or in an industrial environment is to use Nardalert S3 Monitors as measuring stations. Running from a DC supply and connected to the NBM-580 by fiber optic cables, these monitors provide continuous measurement values referred to settable threshold values. This means that any limit violations can be immediately detected, reported, and recorded.
Narda Broadband Meters NBM-520 with measuring probes are suitable for more precise monitoring. These record electric and magnetic field strengths with a dynamic range of up to 60 dB.
The NBM-580 processes all the results centrally. They can be displayed directly on the screen or read out via the IEEE-488 interface or remotely accessed via Ethernet. Up to eight Nardalert S3 or NBM-520 (or a combination of both) can be connected to it at distances from a few tens to hundreds of meters. Four optical and four USB inputs are provided for this purpose. Low- and high-current alarm relays are also built in.

Determining the Fuel Value of Waste Materials
Exeter Analytical (UK), in conjunction with a number of leading waste reclamation organisations, have developed a methodology for their Model 440 CHN Elemental Analyser enabling determination of the suitability of a waste material for use as a fuel in waste to energy plants.
With the volume of waste materials generated by industrialised nations growing year on year the search for an effective environmentally-friendly alternative to disposal in landfill sites is being actively sought. One solution being actively investigated by waste reclamation organisations is using the organic matter in waste as a fuel in waste to energy plants. However waste materials are typically inhomogeneous containing a wide range of components in addition to organic materials. Consequently the need for a rapid method to determine the energy content of waste materials has been much sought after.
Using an Exeter Analytical Model 440 Elemental Analyser the percentage Carbon, Hydrogen and Nitrogen in a waste sample, which relates directly to its energy content, can be accurately determined in as little as 6 minutes.
The Exeter Analytical Model 440 is a static combustion CHN Elemental Analyser, with a unique horizontal furnace design, which enables easy removal of sample residue between each waste material analysis. This is particularly important with waste materials that typically produce a considerable amount of uncombusted residue (metals, inorganic fillers etc) after each analysis. Using an Exeter Analytical Model 440 - one combustion tube will analyse in excess of 1000 waste samples without the need for removal and cleaning. By comparison other elemental analysers, employing vertical furnace designs, will require cleaning after as little as 20 samples. The gas flow characteristics of the Model 440 analyser are superior to other elemental analysers due to the effective elimination of troublesome residue build-up. This thereby provides longer-term calibration stability as well as enhanced accuracy and precision for measured waste sample data.
In addition, as the Model 440 provides complete control over combustion parameters it is able to reproducibly achieve 100% combustion with the widest range of waste samples.
