DD-SCIENTIFIC LAUNCHES NEW FLUE GAS SENSORS
D
D-Scientific, a leading manufacturer of electrochemical gas sensors is
pleased to announce the launch of a range of sensors optimised for the measurement of combustion emissions in flue gas analysers. The sensors, provided in a 5 Series
package have been optimised to deal with the challenging nature of exhaust gas. The S+5OX is a two year oxygen sensor providing high stability and robustness throughout its working life. The S+A5CO is a four electrode carbon monoxide sensor which provides virtually no cross sensitivity to hydrogen, a common cross interference gas in emissions applications. They are complemented by a seven year life, lead free oxygen sensor, available now in a 20mm package and shortly in the 5 Series package. To learn more about these sensors or many other exciting developments at DD- Scientific, please email our sales team.

SPECIFY ALUMINIUM ENCLOSURES IN CUSTOM LENGTHS/HEIGHTS
O
KW’s elegant SMART-TERMINAL and SYNERGY aluminium enclosures are now available in
custom sizes. Electronics engineers can specify these designer housings modified to the exact length/height to suit the PCBs and electronic components being fitted inside. SMART-TERMINAL and SYNERGY are designed
for a wide range of applications including peripherals, measurement and control, medical equipment, Smart factory, Industry 4.0, building services, IoT/IIoT and high end home automation. These sophisticated enclosures combine extruded aluminium profiles with high-grade
plastics to create ultra-modern aesthetics. Robust SMART-TERMINAL can be ordered in custom lengths to accommodate large
volume touchscreens, displays and PCBs. It can be used for desktop, handheld and wall mounted applications. Award-winning SYNERGY can be specified in custom heights in 5 mm increments to suit customers’ PCBs and electronics. The enclosure features a fast- connect system based around four internal assembly pillars which snap together. There are no visible fixing screws.

POWELECTRICS DELIVER A ‘CONNECTED SENSOR’ SOLUTION
owelectrics work with many environmental businesses, from sewer and pumping station applications and noxious gas monitoring to water level management for wildlife and flood alerts. Our IoT technology connects sensors to the cloud, enabling critical data and alarms to be seen and timely action to be taken. We have delivered several ‘connected sensor’ solutions for a major supplier of oil industry and environmental services, aimed at protecting critical infrastructure and making businesses more resilient to unexpected events. For this Industry 4.0 project, our customer wished to improve safety and efficiency at

a multi-tank waste transfer station, which receives oils collected from garages, machine shops and fast food outlets and mixed fuel (typically when the wrong fuel has been pumped into a tank). Prior to installing our kit, the only way to know the tank levels was for an employee
to climb to the top of eight large tanks and take dip readings. Now, regular level data can be easily viewed by authorised personnel on any web-enabled device. High-level alarms are set up for individual tanks. Staff are alerted when critical levels are reached and collections arranged to minimise disruption.

www.powelectrics.co.uk It is clear that the business, which is now over three decades old, shows no sign of
slowing down. With a raft of innovative compressed air control, performance and monitoring solutions on the horizon, it looks like we can expect to see more from CMC as manufacturers continue to seek out solutions that deliver high outputs and add value against the backdrop of shrinking budgets.

Is the launch of AIRMATICSTM an extension of this philosophy? “Absolutely”, continues Graham. “AIRMATICS™ is a simple cloud-based air compressor monitoring, performance and control solution that provides real time data, analytics and insights at the push of a button and can reduce compressor-related energy consumption by up to 30 per cent. It’s also Industry 4.0 ready, which means that via automation, interconnectivity and data exchange, it provides real-time data about the health and performance of all air compressors – from one standalone compressor to entire networks of compressors, regardless of the compressors’ brand.” Aside from reducing energy bills by up to 30 per cent and helping plants to minimise their carbon footprint, AIRMATICS™ also reduces wear and tear of each and every asset by ensuring that performance never exceeds system requirements at any given moment. It also decentralises decision-making by automatically making the best decision for a plant’s air compressor system and reduces time spent manually on issue diagnostics and resolution. Graham expects this latest offering from CMC to cement the firm’s position as an
industry innovator, a message it took to this year’s industrial technology exhibition, Hannover Messe. “The reaction so far has been incredible. Companies are responding really well to what
AIRMATICSTM stands for, particularly the fact that it’s brand agnostic and can be used with any compressor of any era. It’s a very exciting time for the company and a period in CMC’s evolution that I expect will lead to significant growth over the next two years.”

based facility has seen the business evolve into a multinational firm with a presence in China, USA, France, Turkey and the UK. “Our aim is to add value to air compressors around the world by producing control solutions that increase the lifespan and performance of our customers’ air compressor assets, boost productivity, reduce operational costs and decrease carbon footprint,” explains Graham.
ince opening its doors in 1985, CMC has carved an international reputation for designing air compressor controls without compromise and that add value to
