Yokogawa introduces wide band Optical Spectrum Analyzer


--AQ6377 is the world’s first OSA that allows side mode analysis of MWIR lasers--


F


or environmental sensing applications, lasers are increasingly being used to detect gases such as CO2,


N2O and NO. They achieve this by identifying the wavelength absorption lines of the different gases. However, the side modes of the laser, which are normally hard to detect, reduce the laser’s capability to distinguish between the various gases. In the 3.5 to 5 m range (mid infrared) the AQ6377 is the


only OSA that is capable of analysing the wavelength spectrum of lasers, including their side modes, with high accuracy. Gas sensor system manufacturers will now be able to


evaluate the purity of the emissions and to characterise the lasers more precisely, thus enabling the selection of the best laser(s) for specific applications. Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCL), which are increasingly


being used for medical spectroscopy diagnostics, operate using a pulsed technique, across a very wide wavelength range. Meet the Precision Makers at tmi.yokogawa.com

Protect your workers, reputation and business: Attend our 2-day Electrical Safety Management course


J


ust after the New Year a communications worker was electrocuted while working from an aerial work


platform in Lincolnshire. The incident is being investigated by the police and HSE.


The company issued a statement which included this vital message:


“This loss of life is a reminder of genuine dangers and risks involved when working in the vicinity of power; there are no second chances.”


Whatever your job role, electrical safety management applies to you.


Ignore it and you could be faced with an unlimited fine and even prosecution if something goes wrong. That’s before we even start on the reputational damage to your business.


If you have an electrical safety management plan in place when was it last reviewed? Are you confident it will identify risks which may lead to an incident?


Don't leave it to chance, attend our 2-day course to make sure your risk is managed and procedures robust:

ll tradesmen are familiar with cable routing and know the


risks of splinters with some cable rods. That has become a painful reality for professionals who have experienced injury when using cable rods by other brands. Recently, C.K has come to the rescue of tradesmen who have sustained bad injuries when using cheaper cable rod sets, made worse by the loss of valuable work time. Top Features & Benefits with C.K


Cable Routing C.K’s innovative range of quality


cable routing products offer unrivalled features and benefits to ensure the needs of professional tradesmen are more than met, including vital safe and efficient working conditions. Take a look at what’s on offer: Working with professional


tradesmen helps C.K find solutions


to end user needs and has enabled C.K to develop the most advanced cable routing collection. For example, the C.K MightyRods PRO range is specifically designed to combat the issues of painful splintering and snapping, thanks to an innovative SplinterShield™ coating - Europe’s first splinter-proof material - that fully protects the rods and allows for longer cable runs. Flexibility is also key to successful cable routing and, with that in mind, C.K introduced its super-flexible SPIRA-


FLEX rod, perfect for accessing tight corners, bends and other obstacles. The SpiraFLEX draw tapes offer fantastic benefits when it comes to hassle-free cable routing. The C.K Gloworm Cable Router – adds another dimension to the range and is perfect for running cables around


tight corners, through insulation filled walls, underneath flooring and across ceilings. Gloworm’s clever glow in the dark phosphorescent polymer construction.
