New dates for Cirrus Environmental Noise Training


This workshop is aimed at any professional requiring either an introduction to or a refreshment of the principles of environmental noise measurement.


D


The next date will be the 13th September 2018 and the course will be held at one of our most popular venues, York Racecourse.


This one-day event that has been designed to give attendees an overview of Environmental Noise Measurement. This will cover the basics of sound, the instrumentation available, measurement principles, specific measurement and analysis techniques, noise propagation principles and noise reduction techniques.


By the end of the day, you will have a solid understanding of the principles of environmental noise measurement; what equipment is available, how to use it, what to measure and how to record and process your data.

ESAB


ue to demand, we’re announcing a new date for our popular Environmental Noise Measurement Workshop.


Taiwan with the objective of leveraging Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) micro grating technology to develop compact spectrometers. Renamed OtO Photonics in 2010 the company now provides a range of classic Czerny-Turner cavity spectrometers alongside unique microspectrometers based on their innovative semiconductor grating chip technology. OtO's "SmartEngine", "EagleEye" and "SideWinder" C-T spectrometers cover the spectrum from 180nm to 1700nm


with CCD, CMOS and linear InGaAs array detectors including back-thinned and cooled back-thinned technologies. The "UltraMicro" series of microspectrometers utilise OtO's "non-spherical, mass-producible" grating which


replaces the "collimator-plane grating-focusing mirror" optical structure used in C-T spectrometers. AP Technologies

Evaluating auto-darkening welding helmets A


ccording to ESAB’s (www.esab.co.uk) voice of customer research, welding operators value comfort and balance more than any other


attribute. Headgear is as important to a welding helmet as a tyre is to a race car: the point of contact is what makes the difference. A typical welding helmet provides three points of contact. A headband provides primary contact points on the forehead and the back of the head, with a ratchet mechanism to adjust band diameter. Padding for the forehead and the back of the head may or may not be provided. To keep the helmet from slipping down, a band goes over the top of the head. Combining all possible options for adjustability, a typical helmet has about 100,000 possible combinations. Next generation helmets have headgear that provides five points, such as the Halo™ headgearn on the new ESAB Sentinel™ A50 helmet. Distributing the weight over more contact points reduces the perceived weight on the helmet

New single axis accelerometer has wide frequency range T


 www.esab.co.uk


he new MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical System) miniature, single axis, capacitive accelerometers have been designed for use in applications in automotive, aerospace, rail and other sectors where challenging environmental conditions may be encountered. The wide frequency range from DC to 2 kHz and high operating temperature of +125°C combined with six measuring ranges from 2g to 200g means that the new accelerometers easily meet the demands of a wide variety of applications. The sensing element and integral signal amplifier are enclosed in a fully hermetic, lightweight, welded titanium housing with integral ground isolation. A choice of industry standard 4-pin connector or an integral PTFE insulated cable both with temperature output for where external signal compensation is needed. The integrated signal amplifier provides a wide range of


industry standard output signal options to interface with most current DAQ systems. Kistler Instruments Limited

Intelligens Flow: waste water flow and level monitoring from HWM


I


ntelligens Flow from HWM is a flow monitoring system designed for use in waste water applications.


Key Benefits


• Optimised for flow: unit can be used for short and long term flow surveys • Safe for use in explosive environments: intrinsically safe ATEX/IEC Ex Zone 0 • Remote communications: data transmitted using GPRS & 3G telemetry (optional)


• Fully waterproof: unit is rated IP68, making it fully immune to water immersion


Intelligens Flow is designed to measure flow in part-filled pipes and open channels. This capability makes it the accepted technology for flow measurement in many sewer and drainage applications.

New PPE Regulation affects helmet mounted ear defenders


officers of companies face the prospect of fines if helmet mounted ear defenders have not been properly accredited to the relevant helmet in use. Failure to operate such a policy could mean irreparable hearing damage is caused and claims from workforce.


U


nder the new PPE Regulation - and with hearing protection moving to Category III - companies and


JSP’s Sonis® helmet mounted


ear defenders are accredited for use with JSP’s EVO® helmet range and can guarantee through rigorous testing that it is the safest hearing protection solution for end users using JSP EVO® range helmets. Peaking at an unbeaten SNR of 36 the Sonis® helmet mounted ear defenders are specially designed to be compatible to work with the company’s EVO® range of industrial head protection. The Sonis® helmet mounted cups can be coloured to match a company’s Pantone colour and can also be printed with a company logo for improved brand recognition.
