Air sampler detects airborne SARS-CoV-2 variants including Delta and Delta plus


Smiths Detection have recently confi rmed that its BioFlash® air sampler can detect SARS-CoV-2 variants including the Alpha variant (B.1.1.7), Beta variant (B.1.351), Gamma variant (P.1), the Kappa variant (B1.617.1), Delta (B.1.617.2) and Delta plus variant (B.1.617.2.1). The company is currently confi rming the ability to detect the Lambda variant, with results likely available in the near future.


In January, Smiths Detection announced that BioFlash was capable of detecting airborne SARS-CoV-2 by the United States Army of Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID), and has been successfully used by several Universities to stop the spread of COVID-19 following airborne detection in several campus buildings.


“It has been a great asset to have this equipment at UMBC. As everyone knows, you need a layered protection strategy to combat COVID. BioFlash is easy and fast to use which makes it a critical part of our mitigation strategy to help prevent transmission,” said Mike Pound, Director of Environmental Health and Safety for University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC).


“Emerging variants are a threat to pandemic recovery; however, mitigation strategies that utilize BioFlash will have an advantage. BioFlash works by collecting aerosols and identifi es the presence of dangerous pathogens using sensitive, specifi c and rapid detection in near-real time without laboratory analysis. Not only can BioFlash detect COVID-19 and its variants, it can be used by anyone, giving them immediate results, in minutes not days, which helps stop the spread of COVID-19 and other airborne pathogens.” Explains Warren Mino, Managing Director, Smiths Detection.

An accurate and precise solution for professional tightness and load testing


Metering grease lubrication fl ow in a wind turbine


Titan Enterprises’ Oval Gear OG2-700 fl owmeter, a well-established monitoring device used in hundreds of wind turbine installations, provides valuable data to ensure safe and reliable operation. One of the fundamental requirements of ensuring reliable and effi cient wind turbine operation is to keep the heavily loaded main bearings fully lubricated in all operating conditions. Fully IP67 / NEMA 4 compliant, the OG2- 700 fl owmeter is optimised for measuring the fl ow of lubricating viscous liquids. Designed to operate at pressures of up to 700 bar and temperatures up to 150°C, and with a standard fl ow range of 0.03 to 4.0 litres/min on 30Cstk oil, the OG2-700 fl ow meter can routinely achieve outstanding accuracy (0.5%) and repeatability (0.1%).

New generation of digital combustion gas analysers provides solutions for residential, commercial and industrial applications


The new range of digital combustion analysers from Sauermann has been entirely redesigned by in- house R&D engineers, bringing the very latest technologies to the combustion gas analysis market. The three new measurement instruments – the Si-CA 030, Si-CA 130 and Si-CA 230 models – set a new performance standard for professionals across residential, commercial and industrial applications.


email: For More Info, email: email:


The new range of Si-CA analysers builds on Sauermann’s 45 years of experience in the theoretical and practical aspects of combustion gas analysis. After reviewing feedback from HVAC-R engineers working with every kind of combustion equipment, the group’s combustion experts developed devices that deliver dramatic effi ciency and productivity gains.


All three models – the 030, 130 and 230 – connect wirelessly to the free Sauermann Combustion app for Android and iOS smartphones and tablets, allowing engineers to control the analyser remotely, view measurement results in real time, and compile them into ready-to-export reports.


The devices also come with a large colour display, so they can be used as standalone analysers. The 130 and 230 models feature a large 4.3-inch touch-screen display with a customisable graphical user interface for gas analysis, delivering even greater fl exibility.


The new Si-CA range of robust, compact, lightweight and intuitive devices takes combustion gas analysis to the next level, with cutting-edge digital technology delivering the speed and reliability that HVAC-R engineers need. These versatile analysers can integrate up to 6 pre-calibrated, fi eld replaceable gas sensors, making it the ideal tool for a host of scenarios and applications. The analysers are entirely designed, manufactured and serviced in-house at Sauermann’s production line and metrology laboratories.
